The Girl was after one of those cuddly toys which comes with a code that gives access to a website. She chose a fluffy white kitten which she has named, uniquely, 'Ferret-ette'.
For once the Boy wasn't paralysed by indecision but went straight for 'Pete the Repeat Parrot', something he'd taken a fancy to on a shopping trip before Christmas. As you can see, it's a parrot. It repeats everything you say to it. Twice. Between you and me, if Pete doesn't wise-up and stay out of my way he'll be lucky to make it into the New Year...
Remember a parrot (even an annoying one) is for life not just for Christmas!

Uncle Billy Bob, Uncle Billy Bob, want the parrot, want the parrot? Like to keep it? Like to keep it? Didn't think so, didn't think so.
