We at Courier Systems don’t go in for Christmas Cards. After a few weeks, cards just end up in the bin. So many years ago we decided to give our Christmas card budget to charity. Recently this has taken the form of buying a gift on your behalf. We’ve bought a herd of goats, a mango plantation, a latrine of toilets (we’ve still no idea what the collective noun for toilets is), and manure. This year we’ve bought 4 pigs! There’s no stopping us now (next year were thinking of adding eggs, tomatoes, and black pudding)
Of course you don’t actually get to keep the goats/mango trees/toilets/manure/pigs. This year the pigs have been given to people who really could use them, by those very helpful people at Oxfamunwrapped.com
