Let the Butler do it

If you’re entertaining a houseful of guests over the Christmas why not put your feet up and get someone else to do all the hard work.

If you haven’t had the time or the inclination to trawl the internet to make your Christmas purchases, and if the thought of battling the high-street crowds fills you with terror, why not hire a personal shopper to do your gift-buying for you?

pinkgreen (www.pink-green.co.uk) charges from £250 for its personal shopping services and will source up to 10 special gifts for friends and family; the company will even wrap, label and post them to recipients for you.
