    Dodgy Christmas Cards

    I arrived home today to find a grand total of four christmas cards addressed to me directly. Mr MF.

    Now obviously most cards I get are to MF + Mrs MF or MF and Family etc.

    How interesting I thought?

    1st one - Happy Christmas from the agency (not a single cheque/voucher!!!)
    2nd one - Happy Christmas from my accountants
    3rd one - Happy Christmas from my IFA (FFS! My IFA!!!!)
    4th one - Happy Christmas from my personal bank manager at Barclays.

    I'm ticked off now. I want to know where my 5th one is. The card from David Cameron thanking me at Christmas for keeping the economy going.

    Anyone else with any dodgy cards?

        No present? I have had a few good ones in the past. The favourite was a sports holdall - though I lost that in the divorce.

          This year clientco's new (female) MD has sent individually signed Christmas cards to all members of staff.

          They are all signed using the MD's first name only with no hint that they come from ClientCo on either the envelope or the card.

          I've already heard rumours of 1 divorce due to Wifey paranoia.
          merely at clientco for the entertainment
