THE CRYSTAL LODGE BLOG

1st December already? Wow, where has that year gone?! Its no great secret that this year’s advent calendar has all the pieces for a new train set. The last wagon is revealed on the 25th! It comes as no surprise then that door 1 reveals the locomotive for the Christmas inspired train.

Advice from Royal Mail on the last dates to post items before Christmas is as follows: International tracked services Fri 6 Dec Australia, Brazil, Bulgaria, Cyprus, Finland, Greece, Israel, Italy, Malta, Mexico, Norway, Portugal, Romania and Sweden Mon 9 Dec Czech Republic, Malaysia, New Zealand, Poland, Saudi Arabia, Spain, Turkey and United Arab Emirates (UAE)…

Not long to wait now until the unveiling of this year’s Advent Calendar. After a lukewarm response to the Disney 100 calendar last year, we think you’re going to absolutely love this one!! Rumours abound that this will be the last of the Advent Calendars, but we haven’t heard anything officially.

Received this morning – the 2024 loyalty gift.

A “new” Kris Bear coming soon to Swarovski, but it bears (no pun intended!) a strong resemblance to the 2020 annual edition Kris Bear. Just a couple of small differences to the embellishments.

Amazingly, its that time of year again – The Crystal Lodge (in its current format) is 16 years old today – although its origins go back 30 years! Thank you again for all your support, loyalty and custom through the years – it wouldn’t be possible without you.
