Polar Bears v Robins

Well, the Polar Bears have it with a lead of two over the Robins.

What do I mean ? Christmas card pictures ! Robins are a perennial favourite of course but we noticed this year we had a sudden aurora (collective noun) of Polar Bears on display.

To be fair the lead might technically be one because for the first time in many years we had a duplicate card. Strangely they were from next door and next door to them, both Polar Bears from M&S.

Only one ‘religious’ card this year.

Anyone else notice any trends ?

Ours will be taken down on Saturday

I suppose it's a change from cute teddies with fat tummies. Had enough of them.

Some could be charity cards .

I received some very pretty cards this year, many with a snowy theme and only a couple of robins.

Religious theme .. two !

Re: Polar Bears v Robins

I received mostly robin and holly and poinsettia cards this year.

I was given a lovely polar bear tin of shortbread biscuits though .... the bear can be used as one of next ...oops... this year's decorations.

Lovely thread!

I shall investigate, conduct a splendid in- depth piece of research and report back!

Re: Polar Bears v Robins

5 Robins this year, but it is Britains bird.

Re: Polar Bears v Robins

I cant remember what was on my cards, they went into the recycling bin a week ago.

Re: Polar Bears v Robins

I didn't get many cards this year, of those I got most had dogs on

Re: Polar Bears v Robins

This year, six Robins and two Polar bears.

I thought this thread might have been like Alien versus Predator, in which case I would have put my money on the Polar Bears.

Re: Polar Bears v Robins

Christmas trees and carol singers won here only one robin and no polar bears. Four religious ones but they all came from Sally Army chums so to be expected.

Re: Polar Bears v Robins

Trust me to be different!
Mostly snowmen.
I will take them down tomorrow.
