I've just recieved a mailing at work, from Traidcraft. The parcel contains samples of Christmas cards. Christmas cards. They think it's a good idea for us to start displaying the sample cards and collecting customer orders. In July. In a heatwave. Christmas cards. Apart from the obvios prolem e it's f***ing daft, it also seems especially disrespectful to the supposed sanctity of Chistmas since Traidcraft are a Christian orgnistion. I wonder if any fairtrade outlets will actaully follow this through. Christmas cards. If you ask me it's further proof, as if it were needed.
