Anyone else doing an advent calendar? I have one every year no matter what, always have.

This year's is a belter. :D So far the windows have revealed festive socks (sounds reasonable) a dog, a sheep and a zebra.

It was thought to be a cross between a leopard and a camel, hence its Latin name.

I'm going to see my granddaughters nativity play tomorrow at nursery, Christmas feel good overload coming up. I love kids singing Christmas carols, it just melts me
 
Still don't feel xmassy here, maybe when I start tackling the wrapping it will jump out at me
 
I finished all the wrapping today & this eve we've just eaten a Christmas pud :cool: It was the oldest of the 4 we have in the cupboard (best before 2013) which has been soaked in brandy over the past couple of weeks............... luverly it was. (y)

I've opened today's window on the Advent calendar.

Any guesses as to which festive delight was revealed? :D

Lol. I'm not giving anything away just yet in case others want to guess.

Well as the last one was a Geeraff I'm guessing duck-billed platypus :D
( the only mammal that lays eggs)
 
Wrong! There's another monotreme, the Echidna (spiny anteater).
 
Behind today's Advent calendar window was...

...a tiger! :LOL:

(I realise it sounds ridiculous so I'll post a picture at some point. :))

Edit: ...and here it is. Note the Christmas (palm) tree and exotic animals. Is this not the best advent calendar you've ever seen? :D
