Christmas Past – A grab bag of icons…

[myrebelcat.livejournal.com]

This day you will be haunted by three posts...

Every Christmas the YMCA gave us kids toys. There was one bag for girls, and one for boys, and we’d line up in front of our respective bags in order to pick our present – thoughtfully addressed to “Girl, age 4-6,” or “Boy, age 4-6.”

The agony transcended description. Would the present be a tolerably entertaining Betsy Wetsy doll, or would it be a dried up watercolour set with half the paints fallen out of their little cups? I snuck into the boys’ line once, but did I get a cap gun? No, I got Playdoh! It was an early lesson on Life’s intrinsic unfairness.

However, this year’s Christmas grab bag is different. Help yourself! Take whatever appeals! There’s enough for everyone. It’s what I think Christmas grab bags should be...

Such a wonderful selection to pick from here. Having just re-watched Heroes Cowley's Warm and Considerate icon has put a huge smile on my dial.

Saving Doyle and Cowley (plus CI5 Girl), that's for shaw!

Thank you.

What a lovely goodie bag! Think I'll take me the 'Git' one, just too priceless. And I like the order/chaos one especailly, too. Thanks for all these Rebel. Lovely work.

Lovely, lovely work. I think my fave is "Cowley" because it's such a good, clear picture of him. Agree about the addictiveness of making icons!

[eveningblue.livejournal.com]

Ha, these are great! I especially love "Some Cows Bite." I also like what you did with the colors in "Wtf?" and "Boo!"

[agentxpndble.livejournal.com]

I can't pick a favorite - They're all so *fabulous*!

[probodie.livejournal.com]

Nicely done. Very good icons.

[rosie55.livejournal.com]

Spoilt for choice here, have snagged "it's not just smoking that's bad for you (If only!!) and Boo which has always been a favourite shot. Thank you very much and happy Christmas!

Oh God I went somewhere very similar at Christmas when a kiddie – used to eye up the boys lucky dip as their presents were much better than ours (a doll, always a doll).

These icons are fab! And so pretty altogether… I have nabbed: Zzzz and ?! and three Cowley’s and Wtf and Eh? and the two Murphs and Shotgun Tommy telling us not to run – somehow the last makes me think of the Green Cross Code – can you imagine Tommy at that? ‘Don’t run as otherwise - BOOM’ :)

Thank you!

Just been spending an hour or so catching up on everything that's been posted for the Mistletoe Challenge (I'm *way* behind...).

So many fantastic icons! Needless to say, I'm nabbing a few.

Thank you!

I saved Bodie and Cowley, of course, thanks
