I liked This One at The Range, but I went and saw it in the shop today and it looked a bit crappier than in the picture.

Has anyone seen anywhere that sells particularly nice ones? I don't want anything too cartoony. Thanks!

We have one from Fortnum and Mason - pretty pricy but has lasted years and is very beautiful. We just put in our own treats in.

I saw a lovely one at a local forestry commission forest gift shop yesterday. They might have an online shop. I'll take a look.

Nope no online shop sorry

It depends how much you want to spend but Matalan have quite a few nice ones for only £20.

OP,

Depends on your budget, but this one looks very well made:

I have this one from hobbycraft

I had brilliant fun decorating it and it comes out every year now

I bought a wooden advent truck from Lakeland: they have a variety of different styles.

Glum, Thanks for that tip-off. Looks a great project for me to do, and good quality for that price as well. Have a ----> Star

Ooh thanks Glum, I've just ordered that so I can make a calendar for DGS.
