Brother Jim & sister-in-law Jan had us in the grab bag, and gave us this lovely vibrating massager, shaped like a penguin! With hot or cold gel pack! And he looks very nice on top of the TV when not in use. I think we will like this gift :lol:

We have 3 Memphises, a Gloria, & a Lovelace. No Mumbles or Amigos, but my colleague Jane has the Amigos on her desk at work.

I have FOUR penguins on the telly right now, along with a few on the tree, several on ledges, and a large stuffed Opus in my room.

I rather like penguins.
