Why not? They’re fairly cheap across the pond…used to watch Hickok45 YouTube channel a lot.

Not saying anything wrong with it, I have a couple of air pistols (pellets, not bullets) but over here in the UK it comes across as 'unusual' but also very generous. I tend to forget that not everyone on here is UK based despite the clue in the first 2 w's of websites

One gift built!


I thought this was going to be a bit hit and miss but it went together very well considering there is no glue involved.
Enjoyed it, thanks Santa.

Ha that looks cool. Am about to assemble my Lego Abarth

Thank you Santa

I'm really sorry for posting this so late. I was out on the North of Spain visiting family, the SS presents remained at home waiting for my return.

Arrived yesterday and opened them right away. Delicious stroopwafels! First time for my daughter, she loved them.

A very nice looking beer that I've never tried. Won't make it past this year for sure.

Last but best, original E-Type and British Leyland badges! The E-Type being my favorite car and Leyland making very important ones during their history. They'll go on the deco wall of my garage/man cave. It's started to look like something after these years in PHSS.

Thank you very much Santa, for the great gifts and the kind words. I wish you, and everyone here, the best for you and your loved ones.

RIP The Captain, thank you for your service

Worry not! I am alive.

Although after 5 years at the helm, I would be very happy for someone to take the seat (and the plastic leg!) in 2024!

Next year will be the 10th anniversary of the plastic leg I believe

Was anyone left out this year captain? The wiki still shows one person outstanding (BoredS2pid)

As I'm a rockstar and know how to do NYE in style, I've been on my jigsaw from SS...

[eltax91]

If BoredS2pid was left out. I volunteer to sent stroops.

Maybe we need a 3rd column on the wiki for ‘has posted photo of gift received’ cos I don’t think we’ve had everyone yet?

Not bored enough, or too stupid, to update the wiki?!
