The perfect gift for a watery Christmas

Do you live in a flood plain? are you worried that your nativity scene might be washed away by a raging torrent? Then fear not, for less than the price of a couple of pints of Lacrima Christi you can have the most flood-proof nativity scene there is.

Or perhaps you like to conduct an impromptu carol concert in the bath. The Virgin Mary, bay Jesus, Joseph and a full supporting cast will be with you as you sing Away in a Manger with the finest bathroom gusto!

Another wonderful idea brought to you by Ship of Fools

  1. Perfect! Now I know what to get for my friend who lives just along the Mekong River =)

    I hope you are doing well, Jams. It's been awhile since I last visited and I'm slowly creeping into blogging again. The operative word is slowly. haha.

    Have a nice day.

  2. Does a stream count as a flood plain?

  3. Even my atheist soul is filled with enthusiasm for a rubber-duck nativity! (The theological implications are quite disturbing, although it could draw people back to Mass with a promise of crispy duck rather than a tasteless wafer.) One question: why is one covered in spots? I don't recall the Bible mentioning any leopards in the manger...

  4. Welcome back Sreisaat. Wow the Mekong would swallow them without trace I fear

    A river may become a raging torrent when wet James so have your nativity ducks to hand.

    Great aren't them Alison!

    Hmm perhaps it was hungry and wanted the sheep after a meal of ass
