Dinosaurs for Christmas?

These dinosaurs seem to be in all the garden centres and lots of gift shops this year.  

Sue (in Suffolk) mentioned them a couple of weeks ago on one of her posts.  This month in Dobbie's they have been added to, and now we have leather jacket, sunglasses wearing guitar playing dinosaurs too. 

Will I be buying one, absolutely not, I won't even be buying a cute Highland Cow ... these are also appearing everywhere once again.


But each to their own, and if you want to rush out and buy one while  they are on the Black Friday/Week/Month offer, knock your socks off and enjoy your prehistoric Christmas.

  1. I haven't seen any of those dinosaurs in our shops, over here, but, my cousin's grandson, aged 3, is really into dinosaurs and would love to have one. :)

  3. My grandson has a teddy-dinosaur which is his bedtime cuddly. I did knit it a Christmas jumper and Santa hat last year. But I would not BUY a hideously expensive ornament

  8. I had to smile at 'the Black Friday/Week/Month offer' - how long before it's 'Black Year' like those shops that have never--ending 'clearance sales?'
    Christmas dinosaurs do not appeal

  9. I hoping those dinosaurs don't make there way over here. Makes me wonder what will be on the shelves for all of the other holidays next year.

  10. No thanks! Although I have noticed highland cows appearing on mugs, cushions, doorstops, lightshades etc. What will next year's trend be? Xx
