Long-gone are the days when “Get your stocking out” meant to pull out the biggest sock you could find, from inside your undies drawer, ready to wake up on Christmas morning with an orange stuffed in the toe part, plus a red netted bag of nuts that you couldn’t really eat unless you had a nutcracker (or muscles that no six-year-old had!)  However, there were a few lollies in there and some coins and one special light up or moving toy of some description so it was all good.
