PH Secret Santa 2020 - The Santae, lockdown edition
Discussion
Awesome gifts Santa! Loved the retro theme. GTA San Andreas is easily the game I have invested more time in, but never had a physical copy of the game. The Castrol book comes at a great time. I find the cars from that era of F1 to be the prettiest, and Im planning on building a small replica of one of them for my baby daughter.
So many thanks, you got it absolutely right!
Merry Xmas to all!!

Merry Christmas fellow PHSS participants.
A slightly delayed posting from me, the day started with a call from my Dad in A&E after a fall and was quickly followed by a positive Covid test confirmation for my daughter so not the best
I share your pain with similar. Makes you appreciate the kindness of a stranger with a gift from a PHSS.A slightly delayed posting from me, the day started with a call from my Dad in A&E after a fall and was quickly followed by a positive Covid test confirmation for my daughter so not the best
Sorry I'm late to posting, first time doing turkey dinner and baby's first Christmas.
Some fantastic showings as ever, glad to see the leg and taxidermy still going strong. The Frankenstein is definitely top contender for most outstanding present 2020!
As mentioned previously, I had 5 gifts, all numbered.
First out was the antibac wipes, safe start. Then the candle for the house (mrs morgs approves), the wonderful Diablo print (lusted after one since childhood) and the cars book which will keep me (and when old enough not to just eat them
) and my daughter entertained.
And then the 5th present, taking much caution given the warnings on the wrapping...
I can only imagine Santa is looking to expand from taxidermy I love it, in a complete PHSS way! I'd love to know a bit more info on it?
Thank you PHSS, very happy with my haul!

Thanks Santa!
Now that the kids have gone to bed I've managed to get the 'blue poker,' back from my 3 year old.
There has been some very good stalking or fluke here. I started engineering with a bridge obsession and travelled the world to see big ones in my early 20s, including the Golden Gate. And I once caused a mass evacuation of a large multi-business complex by setting fire to microwave popcorn!
I'll crack on to the beer now, 7.5%... I'll sleep well!
Well inside my giant blue sack was a chunky wooden box covered in padlocks and garnished with a lock picking set.
I set to work and got through one, but then my 6 year old son just used the lock pick as a screwdriver and took the screws out of the top to bypass them. The [strike]cheater[/strike] clever rascal.
This amongst some keys, packaging and gold chocolate coins that were quickly stolen by my 3 year old was what I found (not the candle and lego mario, which happened to be in shot):
Many thanks Santa. I'm most impressed especially by the mini leatherman. I will make some good use out of that.
My wife also commented that most of our gifts received and given this year were made in China, but the leatherman was made in the USA, the wine British which was a welcome change.
Now the kids have gone to bed, I've opened up the shrimps and bananas for myself

Excellent work all the Santas!
Bit late posting as was delivering Christmas meal to my Ma yesterday. Can't cope with the stairs at ours any more so it was a case of loading the backseat up with foil trays of pre-cooked Reindeer and heading on over...
But what a top job of stalking my PHSS did - rather worryingly good!
A really nice touch! Thank you PHSS - also something for SWMBO too.
The book came, referencing the name of my local Bookshop owner - awesome & scary! I'll have to ask him how he dealt with a random stranger asking him about the PBF - and how he knew it was me from the description!!
The random pink banana protector is certainly a new one! I shall test it with my favourite banana & report back!
Thank you PHSS!
