Unsecret Santas of the board!
Just a quick note to remind you to go shopping for the secret presents soon :-)
Check with your local posts to find out how many days/weeks it takes to ship parcels to the country of your unsecret exchange partner and make sure you send out the SECRET gift in time :-)
Have fun, and remember that your present can include food, but it should NOT be the only thing you send!
I'm not a role model myself, since (while my list is getting longer and longer) I cannot decide what to get for Anne ;D - Lucía, on the other hand, has already bought everything. Of course, Santa is very proud of her :)
Let's get this going, boardies!
yours,
the unsecret elf.
------
P.S.: If you need inspiration, here is the link to last year's exchange, which was a great success thanks to the board's very own Canadian, as we all know! (but please don't post anything new in the old threads, it'd be veeery confusing, ahem) |

| I've got a few ideas in mind and will go shopping today when I leave work. So if I'm lucky and get everything I need, I'll probably be sending out Moray's parcel on Monday :o). |

okay, erm, I have a tiiiiiiiny plea:
pleeease do not dig up last year's "Santa" threads, ESPECIALLY not when their titles are sporting the words "presents" and "OPEN!" without mentioning the last-year bit. People (cough) might get confused.
I certainly did. I thought, WHAT? MUTINY! SOMEONE'S TAKING OVER! THE EASTER BUNNY!
yes, those were my exact thoughts.
this happens when you have to wear elf-ears all the time.
If you want to know what happened in last year's exchange, I'm putting the link in my original post now so you can check it for inspiration.
But if you have questions about last year's exchange, please pose them right here :) so we (okay, so "I") don't get confused ;P
much obliged,
the unsecret elf.

Ohh, I'm sorry, Lilly!... I mean ELF!!
I just wanted to know about Kayte's shamrocks. :o/
I won't do it again :oP.
Reply to Kayte about the shamrocks:
Oohhh, it's sad they didn't grow! It's creepy that they move, though. I didn't know they move. |

Ok, my unsecret santa shopping didn't go so well yesterday, but it gave me a new idea and today I went shopping and I got the old idea and the new one! So I'm exhausted because I had to walk a lot, but I'm quite satisfied that I got both things instead of one.
I've got some tiny details I have to work on (I'll do this over the weekend) and everything will be on its way to Scotland on Monday. :o) |
