Well -

The whole exercise has been a bit pointless this year. I don't really mind about the presents - I'm sure something will turn up eventually, and if not . . . well, I'm no worse off than I was.

My main reason for signing up for this is the pre-postage banter on the Silly Secret Santa thread, the clues and the guessing. This year, my Santa made just the one late post, saying nothing much except that s/he was going to send something. My santee didn't respond to any of my anonymous posts, so I just gave up on the whole thing.

Don't know if I'll bother next time.

Happy New Year, everybody.
