Have you opened the window on your Advent calendar yet?

I haven't got one

Me either (or is it neither?)

Was it given to you, jingl, or did you buy it yourself?

(I haven't got one either)

No windows on mine, but I've built the first little house and put it in place. It looks lonely.

Mine has a chocolate for every day!

I like yours Elegran where did you find that?

Someoine mentioned them on another thread. I found mine from www.turnerscards.co.uk/ which is one of a string of Independent Phoenix Traders, by Googling "Snowy Village Advent Calendar". There seem to be a lot of those Independent Phoenix Traders.

I also bought some advent bottles online from www.world-of-bottles.co.uk - graduated with a drink a day, empty to fill with your choice of booze. It is flatrate £9 postage from Germany so better to buy several as gifts.

(PS - not advertising, no connection with either of these, just recommending something that I have actually bought)

No pics or chocolate on mine either. I've had this more years than I can remember.

I bought it yesterday Ana. I decided to go for a simple one from Oxfam. It's really nice actually. (no choccies! would only want more )

I went for the Jacquie Lawson one again for my laptop. It's a snow globe that you click on to open an animated Victorian street scene this year. Yesterday was the teddy bear brass band playing Christmas carols under the bandstand. Then I visited the library to read the book for 1st December and found out about the history of brass and silver bands. I bought 3 calendars so I could send 2 to friends, so mine only cost £2.20. Will open today's after tea with DH.
