And the first 2007 charity Christmas card catalogue to arrive this year comes from…
[East Anglia’s Children’s Hospices](http://www.each.org.uk) (EACH). It arrived this
morning.

 ⌊EACH Christmas catalogue cover 2007⌉Maybe August is reasonable, although the contrast
with summer holidays does jar. Still, at least the charity’s retail manager acknowledges
this in a covering letter, and justifies the early arrival. Carolyn Emblen tells
supporters: "I know that Christmas seems a long way away but many of our supporters
do like to buy their cards early, which is why we send our flyers out in July".

She adds: "Last year we had orders of £5,000 during the week after our mailing."
