Nov. 29th, 2013 10:45 pm"...so if you could maybe aim for a Christmas present a bit less expensive than a giraffe, and a bit more exciting than a pack of cheese slices..." Guppy says, while Coral sits industriously writing her letter to Father Christmas.
"How much can it cost?" Coral asks, chewing her crayon.
"Thirty pounds. In fact, you can choose something from Father Christmas's Magic Book." Guppy says, sliding it over.
"That's the Argex Catalogue." Fry says.
"Yes, and it will make things nice and easy for Father Christmas to find." Guppy says.
He goes into the living room, where Fran is playing with Brooke. He sits down next to them.
"What do you want for Christmas, Brookie?" he asks, ruffling her hair.
"Dada!" Brooke says.
"Aw, well you can have me every day." Guppy says, scooping her up for a cuddle. "We'll get you something nice."
"Daddy?" Coral comes through. "Where's the girls dinosaurs?"
Guppy gets up and looks back at the catalogue. Sure enough, every dinosaur in there has a boy playing with it in the picture.
"These dinosaurs are for boys and girls, so don't worry." he says. "What about that bucket of dinosaurs? They're all accurate."
