Subject: RE: BS: Secret Santa messages 2009 From: GUEST,My Guru always said -- Her Santa Date: 17 Nov 09 - 03:24 PM Well it's into the bin with the Pink Fruit. *sigh* And here was I thinking, "What an excellent collection of gifts I have for my special Santee this year!" Hmmm -- Well now -- How to send a Secret Garden -- secretly -- up-hill all the way to your home. Do not be troubled. This will be fun. Kindly Santa of the Magic Type to the Magic One. |

Subject: RE: BS: Secret Santa messages 2009 From: GUEST,Severn's serendipitously poised SS Date: 17 Nov 09 - 03:29 PM Goodness me, what a lot of questions! I think for the time being at least I will remain ambiguous as to my gender, and all I'll say about the continence question is that it will be a long distance journey to reach you, involving refuelling the reindeer along the way and possibly some comfort stops for me. You are kind to ask about refreshments. For myself, a piece of chocolate cake accompanied by a decent drop of Scotch (or indeed Irish) spirituous liqueur. The reindeer will be happy with the traditional carrots, while the elves (I anticipate having a few with me)are omniverous and greedy and have been known to consume vast amounts of chocolate (although their preference is for the Belgian kind). Now you really must excuse me as it's a particularly busy time of year .... |

Subject: RE: BS: Secret Santa messages 2009 From: Anne Lister Date: 18 Nov 09 - 02:38 AM Barb'ry - I haven't heard from mine so far, either. Shall we form a support group? |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Secret Santa messages 2009 From: Barb'ry Date: 18 Nov 09 - 03:03 AM Anne - support group with blankets and coffee... and just a little bit of chocolate when the going gets really bad! I'm in. |

Subject: RE: BS: Secret Santa messages 2009 From: Catherine Jayne Date: 18 Nov 09 - 04:21 AM Hello Santa! Yep 3 kids under 3 and yes they love to drum...they already have one each! I don't mind it but I think the neighbours have noticed!!! *G* |

Subject: RE: BS: Secret Santa messages 2009 From: GUEST,Maeve's Secret Santa Date: 18 Nov 09 - 04:30 AM You will be pleased to know that the Christmas Robins have told me that you have been a very good girl this year and deserve something very nice at Christmas. Mary Christmas and I have been on the look out and have found some little things we think you might like. Rudolf has offered to help wrap the presents but he is not really that good although we will let him help. If you find a wobbly wrapped present under your tree you will know who has wrapped it. Santa xx |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Secret Santa messages 2009 From: maeve Date: 18 Nov 09 - 06:24 AM Thank you very much, Santa. I'd be delighted to receive a wobbly, Rudolf-wrapped little gift. He and the other reindeer will enjoy some of our homegrown apples and carrots. I am as yet undecided whether you and the delightful Mary Christmas would prefer applejack with some apple pie and sharp cheddar or hot chocolate with shortbread for your snack. A ham sandwich on homemade bread? A glass of Sheepscot ale? Hmmm. I must have a chat with wee robin. Trying hard to be good...friends here say I'm quite trying. maeve, |

Subject: RE: BS: Secret Santa messages 2009 From: GUEST,Sandra in Sydney's SS Date: 18 Nov 09 - 08:29 AM You've been Santa'd! When I read your wishlist, I thought,"Piece o' cake!" Then I started reading your posts this past year and saw that you already have the Utah Phillips double cd. Hmmm. We'll just have to dig a little deeper. |

Subject: RE: BS: Secret Santa messages 2009 From: Liz the Squeak Date: 18 Nov 09 - 09:09 AM Barb'ry - you do have a secret santa - you need to post some hints so they can know where best to send the penguins. Anne - your Santa is too busy playing Bejewelled and trying to beat my score.... or something like that... Art - be afraid.... be VERY afraid! I am better now than I have been for some time, although I still cough like a seal... so no bears for me! SECSY LTS |

Subject: RE: BS: Secret Santa messages 2009 From: My guru always said Date: 18 Nov 09 - 04:20 PM Oh Santa Dear, how lovely to hear from you but I must apologise for the waste of the pink fruit. Are you certain that there isn't another possible Although our secret garden is almost at the top of a hill, our postman has it sussed as his delivery route is always downhill. I would hope that your elves will find that downhill is much easier, wouldn't want them to tire themselves out at Christmastime *grin* Will they have far to travel? Please don't trouble too much on my account, I'm certain that you have excellent taste! Hil (being really good, though there's always room for a lump of coal on our log-burner) |

Subject: RE: BS: Secret Santa messages 2009 From: GUEST,Nancy King's Secretive SS Date: 18 Nov 09 - 07:19 PM There was a fine lady named Nancy Whose wish list was not very fancy! Her Santa did ponder Till his mind did wander, Since surprises are always quite chancy... |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Secret Santa messages 2009 From: Nancy King Date: 18 Nov 09 - 11:22 PM But I LOVE surprises! |

Subject: RE: BS: Secret Santa messages 2009 From: Anne Lister Date: 19 Nov 09 - 03:37 AM Thanks for the reassurance, Liz! |

Subject: RE: BS: Secret Santa messages 2009 From: AllisonA(Animaterra) Date: 19 Nov 09 - 07:17 AM *sigh of relief* Thanks, Santa! |

Subject: RE: BS: Secret Santa messages 2009 From: jacqui.c Date: 19 Nov 09 - 01:15 PM I gotta Santa!!!!! I'm not sure where you hale from Santa, but I would mention that I will be in the UK from 7th December, travelling back to the USA on 28th December. If you're USA based then my home address is the one to use but, if in the UK, ask Liz and she can let you have my daughter's address in the UK, to save some of the cost of postage. |

Subject: RE: BS: Secret Santa messages 2009 From: GUEST,Santa calling Mrs Cobble Date: 19 Nov 09 - 01:21 PM Hey, Mrs Cobble! Just to let you know I'm out here and I'll notice if you're bad. Wanna update your hints? |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Secret Santa messages 2009 From: GUEST,Flautist Sara's Trial & Errah Present Bearah Date: 19 Nov 09 - 02:34 PM The stack grows ever higher. But even if it means the cost of the postage might relieve me of my great fortune, I'll go ahead and send it, still inside the wrapped cookie and everything. The vigilant searching is nearing a close, at last, for things for "The Flute" to flaunt and flout. So keep up the good behavior, or at least don't get caught, because I still CAN change my mind..... |

Subject: RE: BS: Secret Santa messages 2009 From: Becca72 Date: 19 Nov 09 - 03:39 PM Hullo....Santa? Are you out there? I've been as good as can be expected given my relations... |

Subject: RE: BS: Secret Santa messages 2009 From: GUEST,My Guru always said -- Her Special Santa Date: 19 Nov 09 - 05:29 PM Trouble? I love trouble. My Special Santee is worth it. Miles and Miles and Miles and all uphill from here. Unless you turn the atlas upside down. There's the go! Why didn't I think of that before. Soooo Ah Ha! Thought you'd found me? Well now you know I don't dwell in the North Pole (and Oh Dear! I've eliminated Scotland, but no matter) So where's left you ask? Santa -- from a Secret Garden far away in the Universe somewhere below you. |

Now where was I, oh, our hints are on the post and info is flowin....we always love to have a taste of the the folk world that our secret santa is a part of...it's exciting to us to see what others are doing in this great world we share...if not that, money will do it! Get those elves in for a bit of toweling off, and get them back to work. Chop, Chop, no time to waste now. Desert Dancer and Astro in Los Angeles, getting ready to hang the socks and bring out the likker...it is Christmas time again!!!! |

Subject: RE: BS: Secret Santa messages 2009 From: GUEST,the workshop of Anne Lister's SS Date: 20 Nov 09 - 12:26 AM And lo, Anne Lister, fear not, for the elves of the North are deep in the throes of their work and even unto you shall come some surprising gifts. But, from whence come their orders and collaborators? Only the Shadow knows! To mix a metaphor or two... |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Secret Santa messages 2009 From: Anne Lister Date: 20 Nov 09 - 03:40 AM Good grief, Santa - are you in Mordor or Earthsea? But I'm very pleased to hear from you, wherever you are, and I will be delighted, I'm sure, to receive surprising gifts. Are there any special dietary requirements for you, the reindeer and any accompanying elves? The house special at the moment is apple pie, but we can put together whatever is needed, I know. And I am, of course, being good. |

Subject: RE: BS: Secret Santa messages 2009 From: GUEST,Desert Dancer and Astro's supreme santa Date: 20 Nov 09 - 04:42 AM Well done that santee! List duly noted and notes made for the shopping elves (a little damp due to all the precipitation... 'oh the rain it is raining all the day long...') but I've bought them some rather nice wellies and they'll be grand as owt. I notice you mentioned likker... hope that will come with some food for the travel weary - santa can't drink on an empty stomach, you know. Be good xxx |
