Subject: RE: BS: Silly Secret Santa Signals - 2005 From: MBSLynne Date: 30 Oct 05 - 12:49 PM How does this thread keep falling off the bottom? Not enough Santaish communication here! Love Lynne |
Subject: RE: BS: Silly Secret Santa Signals - 2005 From: SINSULL Date: 29 Oct 05 - 11:35 AM So sorry, Santa. I have had to fight for computer time. All those Mudcat addicted house guests! I was, as you may have heard, the "Voice of Reason" at the Getaway. The only normal one in a sea of demented tooth fairies and bumble bees. The pictures tell it all. Please don't hold me responsible for the Jacqui inspired madness. Thank you for the chocolates. I have them hidden away and will open them on a cold night with a cup of cocoa. Much love (I'm no fool) SINS |

Subject: RE: BS: Silly Secret Santa Signals - 2005 From: GUEST,The SS of My Guru Always Said Date: 29 Oct 05 - 08:09 AM I think that it'd be safe to say that you couldn't be more wrong in your guess at my geographic location. And that's a hint. |

Subject: RE: BS: Silly Secret Santa Signals - 2005 From: My guru always said Date: 29 Oct 05 - 05:41 AM Dearest Secret Santa: Veiled references is it? Are you a lost soul trapped within the Littlewoods catalogue? (Pratchett would have created a good story on that line methinks!) Or is this the 7 veils & are you a member of the Belly Dancers of the UK? Location? Your avid reading of the Littlewoods catalogue combined with your 'Dougalness' points me to the UK., Northern possibly - but I'm probably way off-base *grin* |

Subject: RE: BS: Silly Secret Santa Signals - 2005 From: GUEST,Tannywheeeler's Sweet & Secret Santa Date: 29 Oct 05 - 04:01 AM I want to give you something, my child, for we are drifting in the stream of the world. Our lives will be carried apart, and our love forgotten. But I am not so foolish as to hope that I could buy your heart with my gifts. Young is your life, your path long, and you drink the love we bring you at one draught and turn and run away from us. You have your play and your playmates. What harm is there if you have no time or thought for us. We, indeed, have leisure enough in old age to count the days that are past, to cherish in our hearts what our hands have lost for ever. The river runs swift with a song, breaking through all barriers. But the mountain stays and remembers, and follows her with his love. (Rabindranath Tagore) Dear Tannywheeler A tiny pressie is in the post From Hull, Hawaii or the Holy Ghost Music will sing to you From a special place Not all JUNK is trash (with a smile on my face) In time you will understand What the Loved Ones bring With a thrill up your spine When they sing sing sing Not for a grandchild This special treasure But for YOU, Tannywheeler forever to treasure! heh heh heh.... your Secret Santa!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! |
Subject: RE: BS: Silly Secret Santa Signals - 2005 From: freda underhill Date: 29 Oct 05 - 02:16 AM my secret santa is a nature lover and very informed for someone who hangs out with reindeer.

Postcode blurred but could be Albe...que?? I promise you santa, I will not have toooo much fun... and if a western jackalope delivers my christmas treat, with you on the sleigh(t), i will be very surpised and pleased!! freda (trying to be good) |

Subject: RE: BS: Silly Secret Santa Signals - 2005 From: Nancy King Date: 28 Oct 05 - 02:23 PM Dear Patient (I hope...) Krissie Kringle: Yikes! I hope I haven't missed the sleigh! I just remembered you need a clue, But my creativity's gone away So this little list will have to do! Age & gender - over 60 (barely...), female. Favorite colors - earth tones other than orange. Favorite type of book - historical fiction, thrillers (but I work in a library, so have access to whatever books I want). Favorite type of music - most types of folk music, especially good harmony singing. No particular CD's currently on my list. I'll pass on the videos and T-shirts, thanks anyhow. Collect anything? Just dust bunnies and miscellaneous paper, but I already have plenty of those. Hobbies - gardening, puzzles, needlework, and of course, folk music. Prefer gold-tone jewelry. I'll be pleased to get whatever my Secret Santa sends my way! Something from his/her home area, or his/her favorite music, would be great! Thanks -- and I'll try to be good! Nancy |

Oh dear, what's this I hear about you leading the ladies of the FSGW and some of the Brit ladies astray on Saturday night. Pink tutus, basques, girdles,a harem outfit and other not so tasteful items. Oh dear Sinsull, Santa will have to make sure that you have an extra present to help you try to mend your ways. |
