BS: Calendar towel?

Subject: Calendar towel?
From: Chris Seymour

My stepmother is looking for one of these as a gift -- a calendar printed on a dishtowel. You hang it up on the wall for the year and use is as a calendar and then take it down and dry your dishes with it.

Any clue where to get one?

Chris, I get one of these every year for someone in my family. They are usually sold in the big card shops (like Hallmark) where they also sell little knick knacks, Xmas ornaments, wrapping paper etc. Or you could try any novelty store that sells regular wall calendars. Good luck.

I think they should make calendar toilet paper. Just enough alloted for each day's wipe requirements. A good track keeper to moniter regularity.

I guess if you suffer from multiple personality disorder you would need all the days on all the undies ... moonchild

Catspaw, thongs don't come like that, but if they did, I'd want a different colour for each day of the week monogramed with lovely writing.

Sometimes moonchild, I do feel like I possess multiple personalities, I just never thought of it as a disorder.

BB ... I think it's only a disorder if you don't have them ... moonchild

OK calendar toilet roll, but what happens if you use more than one sheet a day..... If we had some, then the bug I've had for the last 3 weeks would have me breaking into September 2004 by now.....

(Sory, that is more information than you probably needed to know, but I think I may have a point....)

Sounds rougher than a cob, so to speak, there Squeaks. Maybe its an allergic reaction. Maybe you need to try a different Depilatory to get rid of that chest hair problem. I do have the hot wax at the ready over at the Cantina too if you'd prefer.

Sorry to get back to the subject but these are also available from various charity Xmas catalogues in the UK (RNLI, National Trust etc). My ma-in-law usually gets one that she hangs up in the kitchen for a year then uses as a teatowel when it's obsolete.
Sorry, no jokes, 'Spaw, but it's 7.20 pm and I've been at work since 8.30 am and don't leave till 9pm!

Now I HAVE seen everything. I found a place on the Net you can order your Brand New Year 2000 Linen Calendar Towels:

Seybolt's Gifts

I didn't stay long enough to see how much they cost; however, good luck to you Chris!!

Just don't fill the jello pit with that hot wax, Spaw, or we'll all be totally hairless.

Only 7 bucks, not bad. When I used to buy them years ago as gifts for my mom and gram they were almost that much, and it's been almost three decades....

No, NO, Bert! We've changed the venue from a 'jello' pit to a 'jelly' pit! Didn't the Spawmeister tell you?
