Subject: RE: BS: Secret Santa messages 2009 From: Sarah the flute Date: 15 Dec 09 - 02:54 PM Santa I am clueless as to your identity. I'm guessing you've taken a holiday from the North Pole to Ingerland. Once you reveal yourself (no perhaps I shouldn't have said that) I'll get pencil to paper for your portrait. Off to kill a few Kenny's now The party is really the same as the other sessions every Tuesday but with one exception....the invasion of pork! This consists of sandwiches (inch of bread, inch of ham, inch of bread in thickness) and garnish (pork pies cut into quarters) and if we are really lucky sausage in a basket (a basket with about a hundred chipolata sausages in it oozing with grease!) I'll play you a tune or two Sarah |

Subject: RE: BS: Secret Santa messages 2009 From: GUEST,Sarah's Slightly-Draggin' Sleigh-er Date: 15 Dec 09 - 09:00 AM Sweet Sarah Of The Woodwinds, The package, after a slight repackaging, is far enough on its way to Surrey in a hurry that it would be folly (la-la-la, la-lah-la-lah!) to turn back at this point and besides, I'm looking forward to secretly dropping it off.... "There were few at the scene But they all did agree That the sleigh-er who ran Looked a lot like me......" ....so this fellow Kenny can die mysteriously at your party and you won't be implicated. The police will deposit it to their IRA account and go off chasing red herons, scarlet ibises and the like in their clueless manner. Yule still get your much-merited present and it should be worth your wait, maybe even in gold. A few of the elves went overboard this year..... (No Sarah, the sleigh DOESN'T have a plank and they were forgiven because they still brought it all in under budget. Aaaaaarrrrrgh! "Yard Sales In The Sunset......") .....So go ahead and let yourself go at your holiday bash and my scout elf can tell me just what it IS that you do at these sessions that might cause you guilt. If the elf gets it on film (or captures Kenny's demise, for that matter) it will be put on next year's account for next year's behavior scan for next year's Santa List. But I assure you that this year's Pole-winning Santa will be a hard act to follow. (In fact, it might be a hard act to merely follow these long messages). Yule hopefully find your Claus pretty sharp this year. So get to work drawing your cartoon portrait of Santa before you find out who she or he actually is, and if you find a good picture later on Facebook or a Cat thread, you can draw a caracature of the real thing, as well. Or have you ventured a guess or two already? Be good, Be-lieve! Rest ye merry, Gentle Lady, Your Santa And play a good tune for me tonight of your choice. |

Tis the Kilkenny Irish session Christmas Party tonight .... Oh dear! Hope santa will forgive me in advance! Sarah |

Subject: RE: BS: Secret Santa messages 2009 From: GUEST, RangerSteve's Stealth Santa Date: 14 Dec 09 - 06:27 PM I know, I know...I've been so secretive you are probably wondering if you HAVE a Santa! Well, you do. And the New Knighted Snakes Postal Disservice (slanderously referred to as "Snail Mail") will be pressed into service tomorrow at the latest. Their up-to-the-minute fleet footed fleet of elvish minions will have this package to you post haste! You are quite welcome to open it when it arrives...or save it to savor on The Day itself. Please let me know when it arrives. Happy Christmas! |

Subject: RE: BS: Secret Santa messages 2009 From: Nancy King Date: 13 Dec 09 - 08:34 PM The wonderful Santa of Nancy Sent messages writen so fancy! She tried to respond With a message "tres grande," But her efforts proved just a bit chancy.... Woo hoo! Looking forward to the arrival of The Package! Thanks, Santa! Nancy |

Subject: RE: BS: Secret Santa messages 2009 From: GUEST,Seek CET Santa Date: 13 Dec 09 - 06:46 PM Oh Yooo Hoooo Mr CET Sir Reporting in that flight is on schedule and airborne We anticipate safe delivery by 24th Dec Please prepare for enjoyment (This is subject to the reindeer not getting distracted by those guys in red coats and funny hats, or the lumberjacks, bears, excessive snow or only being given directions in French!!!) SS |

Subject: RE: BS: Secret Santa messages 2009 From: GUEST,Nancy King's Solicitous Santa Date: 13 Dec 09 - 02:22 PM Poor Nancy was in such a state, For she feared that her Santa was late, But his reindeer and elves Had organized themselves To deliver her package's fate. They couldn't deliver on Sunday, So they plan for departure on Monday. Her package will come With a rum-pa-pum-pum, Arriving exactly on One Day! |

Subject: RE: BS: Secret Santa messages 2009 From: jacqui.c Date: 13 Dec 09 - 11:40 AM Dear Santa - I must admit that the Grammy nomination was a superb early present, but I'm sure that I will be equally thrilled by whatever you have in store for me. I'm trying to be good, but I have the influence of my grandson, Lewis, who is always trying to get me in trouble, so it's VERY difficult to stay on the straight and narrow! |

Subject: RE: BS: Secret Santa messages 2009 From: GUEST,Joybells' Jolly Jello elf Date: 12 Dec 09 - 10:54 PM Joy, I'm afraid "jello" isn't a real telling clue; if you've visited any of the Mudcat Tavern threads over the past half-dozen years or more you'll know that a "jello pit" is a major feature. Often occupied by a giant squid and various unlucky individuals. English-speaking catters the world round know about that jello pit with lime jello. Yessiree |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Secret Santa messages 2009 From: Joybell Date: 12 Dec 09 - 03:56 PM Oh!! Thank you Santa. So. Hmmmm. Jello eh? I understand about jello. It only lurkes in the USA -- Canada maybe for all I know too though. Jello and UK or Aus = not an option. Unless you're being very, very clever in hiding your location. And fire-lighting? Only safe if you're in snow. Be sure the reindeer's bottoms are not smoldering when they arrive here. Complete trust in your judgement though. Have a lovely Christmas -- you and yours -- including Reindeer and all. Cheers, Joy |

Subject: RE: BS: Secret Santa messages 2009 From: GUEST,maire-aine's now calm secret santa Date: 11 Dec 09 - 03:00 PM Your pressie is winging its way with the elvish airmail co. to arrive hopefully before the big day ss |

Subject: RE: BS: Secret Santa messages 2009 From: sian, west wales Date: 10 Dec 09 - 05:11 PM Yep, off to the Land of the Silver Birch, Home of the Beaver, where still the Mighty Moose wanders at will. Blue Lake and rocky shore, I will return once more, boom-diddy-boom-boom, boom-diddy-boom-boom. boooooom. House sitters have arrived and are bedding in, yea verily as I type! So they will be collecting the post and I shall be sitting down on my New Year's Eve return to however much of the Penderyn whisky you leave behind, and I shall open my gift, and think wonderful thoughts of you! And Happy Christmas to all the Mudelves, Santas, Santees and Grinches. Particularly to the Grinches. Will touch base next year! sian |

Subject: RE: BS: Secret Santa messages 2009 From: GUEST,Sandra in Sydney's surprised Secret Santa Date: 10 Dec 09 - 05:00 PM One of my elfs stopped my arm as I was about to send your package to the Eagle, and suggested I add One More Thing. I agreed, so it will zoom out on Monday. For a hint, look up the vaudeville/burlesque routine "Slowly I Turned". |

Subject: RE: BS: Secret Santa messages 2009 From: GUEST,jacqui.c's wacqui.c-yanta Date: 10 Dec 09 - 04:32 PM Well well well, ho ho ho, so you're in the Old World now, eh? Seems like folks cross the Pond almost as easily as old Santa does, these days. So, now you know that your old Secret Santa didn't leave a present for you under any trees over there. Not that it necessarily means that your old SS didn't send a little package from where you are to where you were and will be again, just to confuse everyone. Not necessarily. Don't know what you want with old Wacqui.c-yanta's little trinkets anyway, now that you've got that incredible GRAMMY NOMINATION!!!!! Congratulations all 'round to you, Kendall and Dan. Good on ya indeed! Ah, well, back to the workshop. Must cobble up the last of the toys to fill the teeny corners of the sleigh. Hum hum hum... Wacqui.c-cret c-Yanta |

Subject: RE: BS: Secret Santa messages 2009 From: Hawker Date: 10 Dec 09 - 01:05 PM OH YES! I HAVE got a santa! Im not worried if my pressie is late, gives me something to look forward to! Just glad to know you are there :0) Cheers, Lucy x |

Subject: RE: BS: Secret Santa messages 2009 From: GUEST,Joybell's jolly elf Date: 10 Dec 09 - 11:27 AM Things are moving along. I may have to light a fire under the reindeer, they're inclined to hang out behind the Mudcat Tavern and watch the giant squid through the window (they're afraid to actually go in, after some of the events in the jello pit a couple of years ago). |

Subject: RE: BS: Secret Santa messages 2009 From: GUEST,Sian's Santa Date: 09 Dec 09 - 06:28 PM Your pressie is in the mail - but you are off to the colonies? |

Subject: RE: BS: Secret Santa messages 2009 From: Catherine Jayne Date: 09 Dec 09 - 03:07 AM Thank you santa!! |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Secret Santa messages 2009 From: GUEST,Sian's Santa Date: 08 Dec 09 - 07:12 PM OK, no danglies. The Missus checked previous years, and said that's what she thought. Sorry, but the escargot (fresh and dried) are all gone. I sent them to the French forces in Afghanistan. I do have some chocolate-covered ants left. A drink? Alcohol, to be sure-but no hot buttered rum, please. Something simple; perhaps a 150-year-old cognac in a warmed snifter, along with some shortbread biscuits. Sorry, but maple sugar tarts stick in my teeth. |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Secret Santa messages 2009 From: GUEST,Leadfinger's Lethargic Lf Date: 08 Dec 09 - 07:02 PM Well, your present is ready to go in the mail. I have great plans to get to the post office one of these next few days. If it gets there by Twelfth Night, it's still the Christmas Season, right? |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Secret Santa messages 2009 From: SharonA Date: 08 Dec 09 - 06:24 PM Hey there, Chief Elf! I'm so very glad to hear that your verdict went my way, and that a pressie is coming my way too! It might have arrived already for all I know; I haven't been to the Post Office lately. I can't think that I'm all that good, though, having been away from Mudcat for lo these many days. Too busy galavanting across the Pennsylvania countryside, singing Christmas songs and such.... but I won't really be in the Christmas spirit till I'm staring at my Secret Santa's gift under my tree, trying my best to resist the urge to open it before Christmas morning! THANK YOU, CHIEF ELF!!!!! Sharon |

Subject: RE: BS: Secret Santa messages 2009 From: sian, west wales Date: 08 Dec 09 - 06:06 PM Hey there, My Santa! Sorry to be out of the loop! I'm snowed under (as you are, probably literally) out here in the Wild West! One of the problems of us getting round to Secret Santaship so late - mid October to December is always a madhouse for me! So if you wanted to get me a Personal Assistant for Christmas ... that would be just fine! Me likes jewels! Don't generally wear danglies, but that's not to say I wouldn't ... particularly if they were from you! Dried escargot are just fine too ... I spike them on toothpicks and stake them out in the garden; a warning to local snails that I'm not to be annoyed. Right. I've made some Rather Nice Maple Syrup tarts and some Nanaimo bars. For a drink: are we talking alcoholic, or the classic Glass of Milk? xxx sian |

Subject: RE: BS: Secret Santa messages 2009 From: GUEST,Desert Dancer and Astro's supreme santa Date: 08 Dec 09 - 01:24 PM All this talk of juices and likker... makes me glad to be dropping down your chimney! Well, present is packed and heading over in your general direction, with a few stops on the way to give the poor old nags a bit of a rest. Should be with you early next week - fingers, hooves and antlers crossed! Have a great time with the family xxxx |

Subject: RE: BS: Secret Santa messages 2009 From: Barb'ry Date: 08 Dec 09 - 10:51 AM Work harder Santa! Give those reindeer some porridge and tell them to get on with it... No slacking. (They will need the wet weather gear, though. Still being good xxxx |

Subject: RE: BS: Secret Santa messages 2009 From: GUEST,Barb'rys barmy benefactor Date: 08 Dec 09 - 03:36 AM I'm working on it. These raindeer don't work for nothing you know. They're demanding sou'westers and wellies on expenses. It will happen; maybe not this Christmas, but next Christmas or sometime in the future, it will happen. BBB |

Subject: RE: BS: Secret Santa messages 2009 From: GUEST,Sandra in Sydney's busy SS Date: 07 Dec 09 - 06:05 PM I'm so proud of you, being in helpful mode and all. I've gathered up your pressie, and I'm preparing it to fly to you on wings of eagles (that's a hint). You're high up on the Good 'Catters List, and I couldn't even find your name in small print on the Naughty 'Catters List, so either you're extremely virtuous, or you're extremely discreet. |

Subject: RE: BS: Secret Santa messages 2009 From: Stilly River Sage Date: 07 Dec 09 - 05:00 PM Feel free to tuck the wine in with my box, if that's what you were thinking. If it is to keep Santa warm, tell him not to open it until after he stops at my house. ;-D Our weather will make Santa feel right at home. Cold and overcast. But we'll leave the porchlight on! SRS |

Subject: RE: BS: Secret Santa messages 2009 From: GUEST,Stilly River Sage's Very Own Personal Elf Date: 06 Dec 09 - 11:26 PM Well now Maggie.....the sleigh has been packed and the reindeer are warming up as we speak. When the runway is cleared for take off, so to speak, your parcel will be on its way. So don't stop being good....you don't have it yet......it's still en route......it might fall overboard....anything could happen, it's a very long way from here to there. Do you reckon Santa would notice if I didn't put this bottle of wine back where it was? |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Secret Santa messages 2009 From: Sandra in Sydney Date: 05 Dec 09 - 07:45 AM well, in the meantime you could start a thread called something like - 2009 Secret Santa pressie received! then decide whether to open it now or later sandra (in helpful mode) |

Subject: RE: BS: Secret Santa messages 2009 From: Severn Date: 04 Dec 09 - 11:54 AM Dear Santa, I hope you're feeling up to snuff and above snuffling, but if your nose remains redder than even Rudolph's, just take out your Kleenex or clean Hanky (free of panky), take the advice of all those bumper stickers and "HONK IF YOU LOVE JESUS!" in an act of praise to show him you wish him a Happy Birthday. And I'll put out a shot or two for the elves to have a good snort in your homor. 'Tis the season, after all.... Be well! Your Grateful Santee As for the mince pies, they're off spying on the mint in their ingenious disguise...... |

Subject: RE: BS: Secret Santa messages 2009 From: GUEST,Stilly River Sage's Very Own Personal Elf Date: 01 Dec 09 - 10:16 PM Have you been reading about me and my fellow elfs? We have our very own elf thread started by none other than the famed Little Hawk. It is indeed possible that my name might even be there. We've been keeping watch and you have indeed been good. That's god, because there might be something good for you in the good cupboard (as opposed to the naughty cupboard, which only holds coal). Good wishes Elf |
