PH Secret Santa 2013 - The Santae Strikes Back
Discussion
I was having a muse on the drive home and I wonder if it would be better to use the same timescale we had for the first year....?
It's nice having 8 weeks to stalk, buy and ship; but it also provides quite a bit of time to forget. Last year we received emails, stalked and posted in 4 weeks and we managed it; plus the shortertimespan kept the pace and the atmosphere of the thread up....
That is assuming people want to do it next year.
I throw it open to the floor...

I might not open mine, I've a feeling it was delivered contrary to the rules as set out in the first post of this thread.
Christmas: ruined.
I believe your SS mistakenly purchased something NSFW for you initally, but bought you something else once they realised the mistake. Christmas: ruined.
I assume that is what we are talking about?
Messages Of The Day
Well; this is it. The final messages of the day before Christmas.
I hope you all get something wonderful from your SS, I know a lot of thought and planning has gone into many of the presents.
If anyone hasn't received an PHSS present by now, please message me and we'll deal with it in the new year. Most of us will be absent from PH until then, but I promise it will be sorted when we get back. Hopefully it won't be many.
So a final farewell from The Beaver King. I hope you all have a wonderful Christmas and New Year; see you in 2014

Your gift was posted on Monday, hopefully you will have received it. If not, it may arrive just after Christmas.

Your SS would like you to take some photos of the smaller gift when you finally go on holiday.

A message from your SS:
"Glad it arrived okay and on time, if you like it you can buy me a bull burger and whatever ale they have on tap at the time. You're a lucky barsteward having a pub you can, quite literally, fall out of their door and into yours!"
Sam Dale
Your gift has been posted, though it may arrive after Christmas. Your SS was abroad and only just got back. They apologise and said you may need to buy batteries.
That's it
Just to reiterate, any problems then drop me and email.
Have a lovely Christmas everyone!
AND DON'T FORGET TO TAKE SOME PICTURES OF YOUR PRESENTS!!!

Blu-ray sounds like a gay male porn star 
I'd assumed (stupidly) that like last year there wouldn't really be any porn/sex toys.
Either way it's not that much of an issue, it serves me right i suppose & the bin men will get a nice surprise if they're into that sort of thing when they empty the wheelie-bin!
A few years down the line, you can explain to your grandkids the magic of VHS, tracking and man-sex....

Still a few bits and pieces outstanding:

Your SS has messaged me:
"Tell my SS to get some pics up of his gift in action and my most amazing wrapping. I did a 500 mile round trip on Xmas Eve to deliver that feckin camel and nearly got the car stuck in a flood behind his village!"
Anybody else who has not received an SS present
I know about you Doofy and I'm sharpening my pointy stick; anybody else not receive a SS present? Drop a post on here and I will actively hunt your SS.

Hi Beaver, I saw your mugshots and thought you were a bit older, or maybe you yust conserved yourself well ?
Regardless, good Job again, many thanks, hope for SS#3, it´s only 10 months and I already have a present !
Why thank you Benni, I'm actually 27 years old and starting to age horribly fast Regardless, good Job again, many thanks, hope for SS#3, it´s only 10 months and I already have a present !

Indeed, t'is almost Christmas again.
Shirt, sorry to hear your SS has not delivered yet. It seemsfrom his post that he is attempting to get things sorted; isn't that right Sway?
99% of those who send/receive international have no issues at all, sadly there is the law of averages and we will probably always have one or two arrive a bit/lot later due to unforeseen circumstances.
Please don't let this taint your experience with PHSS too much.
