The ultimate gift

Spotted in Next – a trip to Aberystwyth which is a rare treat as we dislike shopping on a Saturday because all town centres will be packed with Christmas shoppers. It takes an hour – everywhere/anywhere is an hour away, so a half-decent coffee and a bacon bap (Brummie – Ed.) is called for. The view was obscured by a huge black cloud, the reason for which became apparent later when a heavy hail storm hit the town. the view from here…

Joyous isn’t it?!

Anyway, back to Next… by the way the town wasn’t busy. But then, as we know town centres aren’t these days. If we still had the shop what would we have made of these changed times? Maybe we were prescient in opting out when we did in 2016 well before the pandemic and the other social changes. Mind you we would have stocked this an unusual and fun gift. And as a bearded man it’s top of my wish list.

Comes with free mirror suction fixers!

What’s not to like about it? Oh! Now I remember, how do you clean it, and where do you store it between use? Sorted! Leave the suction suckers attached and scrumple it up at the back of the tap. It only gets better and more desirable!
