So Christmas can be quite a lonely time for some Veterans.Luckily the Erskine Staff do as much as they can to make Christmas a Great time for all, but I imagine it must be quite sad for some residents whose only Christmas Presents are the ones provided by Erskine.Luckily, I have an idea. Mrs Eagle's Rangers Charity Shop will soon be launching its Christmas Catalogue, and it's full of Great Official Merchandise, at Ridiculous Prices!Mrs Eagle's Shop has generously agreed to knock an extra £1 per item off anything that's for Erskine. So I've asked Erskine to give me a list of Erskine Bears who would appreciate a wee extra present on Christmas Morning. I estimate there are at least 12 who would be delighted to receive some Rangers Goodies from a fellow Bear. We've picked out some items which we think they'd appreciate, and if you would like buy that gift for a Veteran, here's your chance.Simply PM me or post here, and tell us what you'd like to buy. I'll then send you the payment link (it's not via the RM PayPal!).We will then gift-wrap your item and add a personal message of your choice to the gift tag, and ensure that Santa delivers it to a Bluenose Veteran in time for Christmas.Here are some of the gifts available, at the exclusive Erskine Discount Price...Polo Shirt - £3 Training Top - Blue - £3Home Shirt 2012/13 - £4Training Top - 1/2 Zip - Navy - £4Hoodie - £5Training Jacket White/Navy - £5 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
