PH Secret Santa 2015 - The Santae Strike Back

[The Moose]

Benni

Benni, you're probably papping your pants about now; worried that your SS present isn't going to turn up...

Me too, I'm literally bricking it.

Good job I posted it tracked and signed really. So yeah, I check it earlier. The little beaut arrived in Germany last night, so I'm guessing it will be delivered today/tomorrow.

So Merry Christmas and Cheers Benni

[The Moose]

Of whom?!

[The Moose]

I must be honest, I'm a bit lost - who hasn't actually received a present?

[The Moose]

The list of people on the wiki who haven't received is as follows:

williamp
Giblet - I believe Giblet has had a card and waiting for Royal Fail to deliver tomorrow
Bullett - I think hand delivery given your SS's comments
shirt - not heard from in a long time
vixen1700
Richie C - I think received
Antonia - I think received
V40TC
Jimmy Recard
FRA53R
peanuthead

Comments please?

Arse, can't believe I've missed this again - looked so much fun last year that I was definitely going to put my name down next time.

Ah well, looking forward to vicariously opening presents online - make sure you post photos people.

Setting my diary to read the Lounge more in December next year...

Started early October

[The Moose]

Slight flaw in my plan. Jumping on a plane in an hour or two and can't take my SS presents with me. Will open on morning of 27th and update with photos.

Have a good day people!

Your Secret Santa says that it's currently in the hands of the courier company and they're praying its delivered today. Your SS is also afraid of being lynched as apparently they've never been late before...

vixen1700

Bad news. Your SS has cocked up and left your parcel in their work locker that now can't be accessed until January. They have procured a placeholder gift that should arrive on the 27th at your place and will send the original gift in the New Year. They do apologise!

I understand the tracking details are showing your parcel as having been delivered but you've not confirmed on the thread. Your Secret Santa presumes you've received?

williamp

Your Secret Santa said the elves delivered your parcel at 4am this morning. Apparently the elves noted a rather lovely house but with a distinct lack of decent driving roads in the area. They also avoided the security lighting and left the parcel to the right of the front door.

Paah!. I got given a butt plug and a kit Kat and some shampoo to wash it afterwards!

Why would you wash a kit Kat??

[The Moose]

I finally got around to opening my PHSS15 gifts:

To remind you all, these were my pressies:



And this little one turned up later on:



And when all opened:



Thank you very much Adenauer - much appreciated.

Little Jakey enjoyed his toy:



(although if truth be told, he seemed to spend more time with the boxes other pressies came in!!!)

I can not wait to get stuck into my Foie Gras...perhaps I'll have to have a regular standing order?!

Merry Christmas everyone

Thank you PHSS!

Great selection of gifts...



A fuel cell car - very PH, looking forward to giving that a go. Even my utterly non-PH missus thought it was cool.

Huge Stein - can't fault it : "I'm just having the one Dear..."

And Boobies... you can't go wrong with boobies!!



Thanks Santa - you're a star!

Were the jelly boobs any good?!

I really wanted to make the Salt Water Engined Car myself

MESSAGES OF THE DAY!

Butterface

Your SS doesn't want to reveal themself to you [possibly a good thing...] however wanted me to pass this message onto you:

"I am glad you like your present, hope it's useful and your daughter looks adorable!!

I thought about throwing in cable ties and gaffa tape, packaging it all as a "Prostitute Disposal Kit", but it felt a bit TOO sinister."

HO HO HO!

Happy new year people!

Is anyone missing a gift yet...or has anyone's victim not posted details of their pressies yet?!

[The Moose]

MESSAGES OF THE DAY!

Everyone

I've received lots of messages both on here and via e-mail. You're all welcome - I'm glad it went well and if there's anyone who hasn't received their present yet, please get in touch and let me know.

oldbanger

Your SS doesn't want to reveal themselves but wants to pass on this message:

"Your SS is pleased to hear the chocolate went down well, it's always hard to know how hot to go with these things but I thought the balance on these ones was pretty good, you know you're eating chilli chocolate and don't have to worry about that pesky milk stuff. I have to say that stalking you made me incredibly humbled, the challenges you've faced in your life put my petty woes into perspective but also restored some of my faith in humanity, you seem like a very special kind of person and I hope you appreciate this when the challenges undoubtedly crop up. I tried to address as many of your 'likes' as I could but a helicopter trip was out of reach sadly, maybe next year...."

HO HO HO!

Moose did a good job last year, maybe he would be up for doing it again if it didn't scare him off?

Thank you for the kind words (you and everyone else) - I'm glad it was received well...was worried about having to go on the run from the torch and pitchfork brigade.

I can probably run the Secret Santa again this year, however it's not a problem if someone else wants to take it over (Lazadude?!).

I don't think it works so well with more than 1 person doing it and to be honest, there's not a lot of work...other than one evening getting everything sent out (don't cock it up!!). As with everything little and often is the way to do it.

So, to conclude, I'm happy to run it again if the baying massing concur?

Happy either way tbh mate. By all means you re run.

Get to it then Moose!

Keep yer knickers on!!
