Tourist Tat

[Piemaster]

And all that from just one site. C'mon Arch I'm sure you can find something even 'better' elsewhere.

My most prized appalling tourist tat is a pyramid "sandstorm" containing real gold-leaf sand. According to my friend it was more expensive than the tasteful jewellerey she was going to buy for me, but being verykind, she forked out the extra

I'll see your vinyl Santa and raise you a Christmas Card from Japan.
I think they've not quite understood what Cristmas is all about...

I mean, what the blistering ar$e????

That would give me nightmares!

I must find another site. I wonder what happens if you google 'tat'....

And there was me fretting over what to buy my brother in law for Christmas. But hey! They've got a 'men's gifts' section! Sorted!

I wasn't completely convinced:

Do you think they'll wonder why they are getting so much extra website traffic?

You've found a unusually rich vein of tat Arch, some of this stuff is excellent!

I wonder what the certificates of authenticity say? This model is genuinely awful?

 

[Arch]

You have to wonder. I also like the idea of "strictly limited edition of 5000"... Not so strict then.

but hang on.... <rumble>

what's that.... <quake>

<boom!>

Run, run for your lives! It's the Franklin Mint!

Wow, cool!

Although it's currently not so much ice, as 3" of snow, so maybe just some high-heel wellies?

Here you go, high heeled wellies.

Elephant wellies 1.

Here you go, high heeled wellies.

OMG! Those are almost practical!

They'd kill my legs though, I never wear a heel of any sort, unless you count chunky soled trainers...

Slightly kinky though....
