Scrooge never had it so good

From a news report:

David and Victoria Beckham have hired a £1000-a-day [$1,888] butler to spend four hours unwrapping their Christmas presents.

A source close to the Beckhams said: “When Victoria and David’s long-standing butler John Giles-Larkin quit earlier this month there was a bit of a panic – especially as it was so close to Christmas.

“After such a turbulent year they’re determined the festive period is going to be devoted to family. They want to spend as much time together as possible and prove they’re still a strong family unit.”

To make sure the festivities go without a hitch Posh has enlisted the help of the butler.

The source added: “The person they’ve hired is one of the best in his field. He was originally booked by the Osbournes to spend Christmas with them, but the Beckhams really wanted him so they upped their offer.”

He will reportedly spend half the day unwrapping gifts for the couple’s sons, as well as presents for the rest of the family.
