I've just ordered some of these for my Grandpa

It might sound a bit silly, but he enjoys the birds, but also finds it hard to have a reason to get up and move around.

I thought these might be a little jolly festive thing to have.

Ooh, my mum would like those. they would bring some Chrimbo cheer to her garden in Qatar. Do you think you can get them in-store too?

I'm sure you can. They're doing free delivery until Monday on any order, so it wouldn't cost you anything extra.

Oh, cool, thanks. Will have a squizz over the weekend and do some ordering.

There may even be some money-off codes floating around the interweb...

My parents have been there since 1995 - step-dad works for an oil company.
