Just for Christmas

An over-sized cuddly St Bernard toy is just for Christmas. Not for life. 

By 5 January the kids rarely play with it. By 10 February they hardly give it a side glance. By 18 March they have forgotten it even exists. 

It takes the parents a good deal longer to summon the energy to round  up all the useless shite around the house and dump it outside the door of the charity shop.
