    Just got one with a picture of 2 penguins and an 'iceburg' lettuce.

    Very poor.

    Anyone else got crap cards from companies being 'clever'.

    You're just bragging that someone has sent you a christmas card

    You're trying to make out it's silly, but I bet it'll have pride of place on your desk.

    It's actually in my bag, it will take pride of place over my fireplace with the other card I've got.

    I got a card from Prince Charles this year, beat that!

    Prince Charles?

    really? why?

    We've got a card that says:

    To No. 9 from No. 2.

    I didn't know houses could send cards.

    Beat that?

    I've got one from Barnsley Football Club.

    It's not got a name inside - so I'm assuming the club itself has sent it to me.
    I feel honoured.

    It says "Spectemur Agendo" on the front.
    I'm hoping this means "Gord's Cookers".

    That's better than Prince spacking Charles every day of the week.

    the very fella.

    The ink is smudged onto the other half of the card as well, it's almost like he'd signed it himself and not that the printers folded the card before it was dry.

    I've just got one from a friend in the US....it's a picture of him and his wife in sunny Florida! Least Christmassy card I've ever received.
