So it arrived damaged. Never mind, I thought, it's what's inside that counts...

I want a funnel

kwick · 03/12/2017 19:54

@Cheeseandcucumber you have no idea how jealous I am of your funnel Envy

@BlueEyedWonder 😂😂😂

KitNCaboodle · 03/12/2017 20:00

I’ve got it, I’ve got it. It’s a she-wee for a lady elf.
Why didn’t we think of that before? Hmm

Namethecat · 03/12/2017 20:08

Is it Day 4 yet ?

badbadhusky · 03/12/2017 20:22

Go to bed, Namethecat - more tiny pressies after you’ve had your sleep. Wink

GrinGrin I'm so glad I started this thread! You're all so imaginative I now have so many uses for my funnel - playing Christmas tunes, puffing glitter bombs in the MIL's face, decanting all sorts and a tiny she-wee.

Xmas Grin at Moogle's purchase! There'll definitely be a nationwide shortage of funnels now. Here we are all mocking HOF but little did we know they were providing the next big beauty must have!

badbad perhaps you need a funnel for the highlighter?

I predict day 4 will bring a brush+ lid. Day 5 will provide an empty bottle and finally on day 6 I'll receive the varnish to pour through the funnel into the empty bottle which is then topped off with the brush + lid. The glitter was a red herring. Ok I've thought too much about this.

Please will,you open Day 4 now?

Aridane · 03/12/2017 20:35

Pretty please

LazySusan11 · 03/12/2017 21:03

I couldn't wait, I had a look online to see what delights you have to look forward to. Someone has actually given this 5 stars Grin

Shamelessly placemarking Smile

Nottheduchessofcambridge · 03/12/2017 21:15

Place marking, I’m in for the long haul! I’m feeling smug with my carburys hero’s calendar, so far I have had a fudge, a caramel and a Cadbury Dairy milk. So far it’s still better than yours!

Aridane · 03/12/2017 21:19

I’ve looked online too - contents listed but not the order. And, yes, just baldly described as ‘funnel’ Grin,

Am curious as to what the three ‘N/A’ are in the calendar? Maybe they are blind doors with no contents?

chloechloe · 03/12/2017 22:48

Is it still not morning? I feel like a child on Xmas Eve willing the time to pass!

clairethewitch70 · 03/12/2017 22:55

If you cannot wait (SPOILER ALERT)

I am watching it now

ArchchancellorsHat · 03/12/2017 23:34

Agog for Day 4. Hoping for a teeny colander to sift your glitter through.

annandale · 03/12/2017 23:46

I have no calendar. Very, very much want one now.

VivaLeBeaver · 03/12/2017 23:52

Love this thread!

MathsFiend · 04/12/2017 00:03

Came to this thread a bit late.... but I wonder if the funnel has other non-beauty uses? I recall Tim burgess talking about creating a makeshift funnel to blow certain illegal substances up his arse.... maybe HOF are making things a bit easier for anyone wanting to indulge.....

AccrualIntentions · 04/12/2017 06:47

Late to this thread but wow. This is even worse than my dairy, gluten, sugar free "chocolate" calendar (what happens when you don't realise it's December till the 3rd and nowhere has any left).

badbadhusky · 04/12/2017 07:00

Drugs paraphernalia funnel? Shock

kwick · 04/12/2017 07:36

Um @Cheeseandcucumber where for art thou????

ILostItInTheEarlyNineties · 04/12/2017 07:45

Really thinking outside the box there Mathsfiend Grin

HateSummer · 04/12/2017 08:04

Placemarking! I really want to know what the funnel is for. 🤔

MissBax · 04/12/2017 08:17

What's today's find??

badbadhusky · 04/12/2017 08:18

I am imagining that funnel in Heston Blumenthal’s kitchen, being used to decant the elixir of sparrow’s fart into the teeny tniest amuse bouche tartlets that humanity has ever seen.
