Just because . . .
it's a time for giving
and
a time for sharing.
And
because yesterday, you very kindly embraced my unusual choice of reindeer names !

| OLIVE |
Olive, the latest addition to the Reindeer family, was only christened this morning, and is so named because yesterday Anne from My Blethering Blog left this comment:
" Love the owl and the reindeer. Your names for them are great!
I always think a lady reindeer should be called "Olive". You know her - "Olive, the other reindeer, used to laugh and call him names".
Sorry. I'm giggling at that all over again! It never gets old! :oD "

It made me laugh and kept me giggling for ages too. Get it ? (of course you did) And the song has been going around & around in my head ever since . . .
Thanks Anne !
So, if you'd like the chance for Olive to come and live in your home, here's what you should do:
1. Be a follower already or follow gilly makes. . . on Google Friend Connect (see the right-hand sidebar); and
2. Leave a little comment below and ensure I know how to contact you.
Simple : - )
As the last posting dates for Christmas are just around the corner, I'll do the random lucky draw this Friday evening (GMT), 30 November 2012 and announce the winner on Saturday, 1 December 2012.
Good luck !

Olive is so sweet and would be most welcome here (I think my daughter would claim her very quickly!). Had a giggle too :) xx
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad you named her Olive, Gilly! Now everyone can sing about her! :oD
ReplyDeletePlease don't put my name in the hat, though. My girls are all grown up and away from home so I'd like someone else to win her. Good luck to everyone who enters! :o)
We have a little collection of reindeer...a singing one, a folk art wooden one..that i made a long time ago and another soft one..so Olive would be in good company and we would love to have her live with us. Thanks for the opportunity! (I follow.)
ReplyDeleteOlive is great name! (and I love the reindeer joke too!)

ReplyDeleteWould Olive like to come and live in sunny South Africa with her Aunty Oz???
ReplyDeleteoooh, I know Olive would love to come live with me in Canada...and maybe I can get her a passport and pick her up while I am over in England at Christmas time....it's always nicer to fly with a friend, don't you think?
