Ryl's 2011 Advent Calendar - post 44

Welcome to RYL's 2011 Advent Calendar

Brought to you by the Community Team


Each day during advent The Community Team will make a very Christmassy post in here!

So here we go with day 1!

If you haven't bought your advent calendar for this year then here is a guide to help you decide which one to go for!

The traditional chocolate advent calendar



I would suggest going for a well known chocolate brand like cadbury's for a daily yummy chocolate fix! There will be lots of choices available in the supermarkets so pick your favourite!

However at the other end of the chocolate spectrum



Is this which is from Fortnum's and Masons and costs a rather whopping £60 for your money you get 25 numbered boxes each containing a chocolate shaped toy.

Or how about a themed chocolate calendar



Like this Dr Who one

Going away from the chocolate theme



We have the lego advent calendar each calendar contains 24 mini figures to add to your existing lego collection!

Or if you have mega bucks



This advent calendar is priced at £1.7 million pound is made of gold, contains 24 diamonds and carved glass angels.

Or maybe you have a beloved pet who you wish to treat



An advent candle is a more traditional method of counting down till Christmas

I love the Lego one AND the candle one too! The dog one made me aww. ^_^

I need to get my advent calendar tomorrow, will probably try and get a Hello Kitty one, failing that I'll get a candle one.

I don't like the sound of the big ones, a small simple one would do me the trick. ^_^ Although I am opting to finding a candle advent calendar as I'd prefer to light that everyday than eat chocolate. XD

No other sadness in the world would do

Then wear the gold hat, if that will move her;

Till she cry "Lover, gold-hatted, high-bouncing lover,
I must have you!"

I have a white chocolate Milkybar one this year because I love white chocolate. :D I quite like the look of the lego one though. xD

I got my puppy one <3 and I have a Hello Kitty one...but the diamond one wouldn't be too bad? any offers on treating me? no? Didn't think so /heartbroken



One track mind, one trackl
One track mind, one track heart
If I fail, I'll fall apart
Maybe it is all a test
Cause I feel like I'm the worst
So I always act like I'm the best
If you are not very careful
Your possessions will possess you
TV taught me how to feel
Now real life has no appeal!

I have a Peppa Pig and Lindt calendar :P I also would like the gold crystal one. Maybe we could split the price and have 1 crystal angel stick thing each?? Only a few hundred thousand each that way :)




Have you ever looked fear in the face and said "I just don't care"?
