1st December 2019

Welcome back to our annual Advent Calendar. We hope you enjoy the pictures, words, and videos each day. We would also love you to send us ideas and contribtions, anything that makes you feel seasonal, or Christmas decorations that you really love.

Today is Sunday 1st December, so it is Advent Sunday. We light our first candle on the Advent Crown.


Sarah is delighted with her Advent Calendar, the way that the Lindt Teddy is peeking through the door, just waiting to be eaten on 24th!


Adam is also delighted, but mainly because he gets chocolate everyday!

I have got 2 Advent calendars; chocolate in one and teas in the other (I put the teabags in the little chubby holes myself last week. Then I have 24 knitted Christmas trees, or I will have, to add to my Christmas garland AND twenty-four decorated tea lights AND possibly an Advent candle...we haven't hung the Advent calendar Christmas Tree yet... you can Never have too many Advent calendars.

My Lindt Advent calendar seems to be missing 5 of its chocolates - looks they dropped out the bottom of the box during transport...

Very lovely. By contrast we (youth and leaders) ate the contents of a whole Advent calendar in 10 minutes at church last weekend as we shared what was special to us about Christmas.

1st December 2025

Hello! We've sort of lost count, but think the first Advent Calendar was back in 2003, the Internet Archive Wayback Machine says it looked like this: Of course all the links are dead, but the thing it has in common with this year's is that it is still coded in HTML, probably the last thing I will ever rely on coding for. Now it looks like this: Happy Advent! We have gone for the Bonne Maman JAM Calendar again this year, after leaving it too late last year and it selling out at both Fenwick and Selfridges! We get a fresh pot of jam every day to enjoy with our tartines and Ovomaltines. We also have the Domino's "Merry Crustmas" leaflet, and a MUJI calendar we'll show you later in the month. Do let us know what you are opening every day! You can leave a message below, or email us your ideas and suggestions for future days at robotmaths@outlook.com Have a great day!
