Well that time is upon us.
I have been charged with coming up with company christmas 'gift' ideas.Can you generous souls let me know what your agencies / you have done over the past few years?
Most appreciated,

we gave our money last year to a homeless charity and sent an e-card to clients.
I think this year it will be something around fuel poverty and the elderly.

My ex-business partner used to insist we spent about £200 per head on a special gift for our ten best clients. He was right in the sense that it cost us only 2000 in tax deductible outlay to treat people who were giving us the lion's share of our annual income, but still, I used to think "Fuck that, these people drive me nuts every day, I wouldn't buy them a dose of botulism".
Consequently I now do nothing at all.
Merry Christmas!
Actually this year if I get some time I think I'll do a nice limited edition screen print and give that to all the people who have driven me nuts this year.

Maybe I should buy something really awful and let them know that we spunked their money on gifts for other people..

I think I'm going to send all my clients a voucher entitling them to have internet cybersex with me for a specified amount of time, valid throughout 2009.
