Apparently we are supposed to not panic buy toys. I don't really mind this as my girls don't get bought toys at Christmas or birthdays. They may occasionally receive awful things from the woman's relatives and I did once witness the transfer of a Barbie doll which was quite shocking. I explained forthwith what the motivation for the barbie doll product was and that it is in fact a sex toy for adults. I had some questioning looks and they now do not particularly like barbie dolls. Which is good. Anyway. Has anyone rushed out to buy toys for the grandchildren? Obviously not a lot of people on here with young kids. I thing thebfg and @gazza are probably the only other two regulars who have children to deal with.

Not a lentil munching philosophy but there is more than enough plastic shite to go around without her adding to it.

Same as @gazza dwarf she's arty. They don't really get toys, certainly not the latest craze.
Games, books and art and crafts for the tall small and the giant big one will get PC stuff, books, smellys and probably some cash this this year.

Don't buy crap for my two great nephews(one is also a godson).Tend to give money,but have bought a couple of dinosaur things for my godson(the elder boy) as he's manic about them.Have just bought a knitted dino for him as it's the correct shape(so we're led to believe) & it comes with info'- he'll love it.

It's a shame that somebody didn't start a rumour in North Lincolnshire a while ago that there was about to be a shortage of boat licences and safety certificates.

At times I listen to LBC and that nit James O`Brian was going on about panic buyers and well its daft etc, and going on about who started it. He says if they didnt say there could be fuel shortage then folk would not panic buy.
Then the pillock ended last week going on talking about there will a difficulty for getting toys for xmas.
So i think he was one who wanted to start it off lol.
Dont know why i listen to him really as he gets on my tits. all he goes on about now is Brexit caused this, get the B word in when he can. Brexit caused that, all problems are due to Brexit now according to him.
