The Talk TV concrete farmer says kids will get rats for presents because of the postal strike – 17 gift-wrapped takedowns
To the world of Talk TV’s Mike Graham – you remember, the one who thought you can grow your own concrete – who’s really not happy about the strikes gripping the country right now.
Not just the rail strike, but in particular the postal strike, which the concrete farmer reckons will ruin Christmas. Why will it ruin Christmas? Because kids are going to end up with rats for presents.
Stick with it ’til the end, it’s worth it.

And these takedowns all come gift-wrapped (and rest assured, not a rat in sight).

How does this work? The rat chews its way in then re-wraps the present from the inside? https://t.co/ONbCjxsNjs

Where would you be if you fell down a hole? What about a fog? Stuck in a hole in a fog? Stuck in a hole in a fog in the middle of the night – WITH AN OWL? Up a tree! Stuck in a hole in the middle of a night. Stuck down a hole with an owl! On your own behind the wall! https://t.co/U82pBFARxb

"And what if the rat, bored with waiting for the present to be opened, has already assembled the Lego set? And then eaten the instructions?" https://t.co/kcONZ7KJ57

Honestly I can see at a push the rat getting into the present. I can’t really see it remaining in there in transit, delivery and then for the week the present sits under the Xmas tree.

And what if the rat starts talking and sends your child on a quest, in a far off land to find the jade monkey before the next full moon? What then? https://t.co/d7nNFXfhBU
