Christmas Crackers Contest

Would you like to win some free books from Total-e-bound? Then enter their contest. You could win a gift voucher for free books!

BTW - Total-e-bound is a British company. Christmas Crackers are not the saltines you serve with soup. A cracker consists of a cardboard tube wrapped in a brightly decorated twist of paper, making it resemble an oversized sweet-wrapper. The cracker is pulled by two people, and, much in the manner of a wishbone, the cracker splits unevenly. The split is accompanied by a small bang produced by the effect of friction on a chemically impregnated card strip. Typically the contents are a coloured paper hat or crown; a small toy or other trinket and a motto, a joke or piece of trivia on a small strip of paper.
