The cats are among the pigeons. Go forth and torment each other. And remember what you never heard my friend Dean say: "Nothing says christmas like excess!" SRS |

Subject: RE: BS: 2010 Secret Santa's tormenting Santees! From: GUEST,MGAS's diabolically taunting Santa Date: 02 Nov 10 - 10:29 AM Well, Ms MGAS. I am going to have SO much fun here. I've been looking out all the good stuff for such a deserving soul and I think that I might even have found an elf to make sure that the parcel reaches you on time. HO HO HO, what a good time will be had. |

Subject: RE: BS: 2010 Secret Santa's tormenting Santees! From: GUEST,Becca's Bustling Bumbling Benefactor Date: 02 Nov 10 - 06:07 PM A short note for now (maybe a demi quaver?) to let you know, my dear, that Someone Out Here in Santaland has your name on the only list that counts. Now to ensure that none of the elves or reindeer involved have any cat allergies (we none of us wish to re-visit the dreadful sneezing, wheezing and puffy-eyeball incidents from previous years, so thank you for alerting me) and then we'll start selecting suitable items for the delivery. Your Santa |

From: GUEST,Animaterra's Animated Elf Date: 02 Nov 10 - 10:44 PM The assignment has been received and the cupboards are being checked for goodies as we speak.....I'm sure there may be some leftover treasures from Christmases past that could be put to good use! To say nothing of the medicinal bottle of brandy that I know is in there somewhere....... |

Subject: RE: BS: 2010 Secret Santas tormenting Santees! From: GUEST,Sydney Sandra's Sly, Sneaky & Scintillating Date: 03 Nov 10 - 08:36 AM Well, aren't we the early bird? So eager for your prezzies that you even had to start the thead? The elves are spying on you and reporting hourly on whether you've been naughty or nice, and I must say, I've got my job cut out for me! Yes, I saw that- -and that as well- so you better watch out!!!! (cue ominous music) |

Subject: RE: BS: 2010 Secret Santas tormenting Santees! From: GUEST,MGAS's diabolically taunting Santa Date: 03 Nov 10 - 09:04 AM My dear Ms MGAS. Nice to hear from you. Don't worry about the pennies. I have it on very good advice that you are always good and do deserve a super Secret Santa giftee this year. Are you going to give me any hints this year or do I have to rely on those provided in past years? Enquiring minds need to know, as do the elves who will be busy finding delectable dainties for your delight. |

Subject: RE: BS: 2010 Secret Santas tormenting Santees! From: GUEST,Sarah The Flute's High Falootin' Santa Date: 03 Nov 10 - 09:51 AM Though the Santa situation became quite acute, For the shortened duration I drew Sarah The Flute. If you're good, I will bless you with choices astute So you could lay your flute down and play with your loot. If you give me some hints, I'll come in from the cold And like princess or prince, bestow treasures untold. So post up your preference ere I hitch up Prancer And I'll use it for reference, your prayers for to answer. Santa |

Subject: RE: BS: 2010 Secret Santas tormenting Santees! From: GUEST,Jennie G's Jolly Jovial Santa..... Date: 03 Nov 10 - 12:11 PM Well Jennie G, I do hope the summer is off to a fine start, the North Pole is a little chillier than usual this year but the elves are busying themselves and keeping warm running errands for me, whilst I busy myself with planning, making and wrapping. I have it on good authority that apart from a few minor misdemeanors, you have been good and therefore I am happy to tell you that a fine festive treat will be on its way to you very soon. Love, Santa x |

Subject: RE: BS: 2010 Secret Santas tormenting Santees! From: My guru always said Date: 03 Nov 10 - 02:11 PM Santa Dear, I've managed a few moments away from my chores to copy & paste last years hints into this years thread. It doesn't seem to have changed much, but my life doesn't seem to be boring (more like crazy) so I guess I'm OK. Oh, and I will keep trying to be good *grin* But I don't turn away lumps of coal either!!! |

Subject: RE: BS: 2010 Secret Santas tormenting Santees! From: Hawker Date: 03 Nov 10 - 03:43 PM Hello Santa! I think I have been good, so your coal is safe where it is, though my bearded half never says no to a bit of coal for the steam engine! Cheers, Lucy |

Subject: RE: BS: 2010 Secret Santas tormenting Santees! From: AllisonA(Animaterra) Date: 03 Nov 10 - 04:05 PM Santa, how lovely to hear from you! Now, medicinal brandy is all very well now and then, but I'm very curious about those leftover treasures from Christmases past... sounds like the Ghost of Christmas Past to me! I don't think I've been a scrooge, but I'll wait for further instructions, ok? |

Subject: RE: BS: 2010 Secret Santas tormenting Santees! From: GUEST,Animaterra's Animated Elf Date: 04 Nov 10 - 07:59 AM What? you don't care for some of our recycled leftovers? tsk tsk......you young folk today, I dunno......when I was a wee thing it was different......(heaves a big sigh)we shall have to look right at the back of the cupboard to see what's there, won't we. And pity about the medicinal brandy, because someone else has drunk it all. I am hoping there's a small amount of gin left...... |

Subject: RE: BS: 2010 Secret Santas tormenting Santees! From: GUEST,Jacqui's Elfine Enigma Date: 04 Nov 10 - 09:12 AM G'day to you, deah...hoping this finds you well. A bit dampish today, is it? P'raps a good day for a fire. Well, dress warm, or find someone warm to smuggle up with. Thinking great thoughts about pressies, but no real ideas yet. I saw your hint list, but it is singularly lacking in useful hints. Ah well, I'm sure I have a fruitcake around here somewhere... |
|
Subject: RE: BS: 2010 Secret Santas tormenting Santees! From: jacqui.c Date: 04 Nov 10 - 09:54 AM YAY!!! I got a Santa! I am sorry, Santa, for the lack of ideas. I'll go add a bit more to my hints right now! |

Subject: RE: BS: 2010 Secret Santas tormenting Santees! From: SINSULL Date: 04 Nov 10 - 01:17 PM Just send her the ugliest crappe you can find. Best if it is inflatable, runs around and makes noise. Call me for help. SINS |

I have the purrfect present for you and will ask my elves to be sure that you receive it in time for Christmas Day. Rest assured I shall be watching to make sure that you're playing nice! Ho, Ho, Ho..... |

Subject: RE: BS: 2010 Secret Santas tormenting Santees! From: GUEST,Sarah The Flute's Verbose Independant Claus Date: 05 Nov 10 - 06:44 PM The clues are a help to your Santa with banter. With reindeer at the gallop and Santa at decanter, I'll be coming some winter's date snowy and shivery With a sleighload of presents all wrapped for delivery. My elves must check out all your goodness, as rumoured. When they have reported and I have been humoured, If your past is not sordid, and when gifts are all sorted, You'll have all the bright trinkets your Santa's afforded, And when you have opened your treasures at last, I hope to have outdone all your Santas past. |

Subject: RE: BS: 2010 Secret Santas tormenting Santees! From: GUEST,Tig's totally tuckered Santa ..... Date: 05 Nov 10 - 07:12 PM I've been reading your list and scrounging around the workshop to find just the right combination of bits and pieces ..... It's starting to come together..... I wonder if you'll see it the same way... |

Subject: RE: BS: 2010 Secret Santas tormenting Santees! From: Cats Date: 05 Nov 10 - 08:49 PM Dear Santa, I have been a very good girl this year. i have looked after my hens and my pussy cats, including one who wanted to move in but ended up in my potting shed. I have looked after my garden and have got everything ready for my bees next year. i have fed the wild birds especially the Christmas Robins and I hope they will let santa know that i have been looking out for them. i promise to leave carrots out for rudolph and some very nice sloe gin for santa. i hope rudolph doesn't get himself all tied up in the christmas lights this yaer. he looked very good and very pretty but it did make a bit of a mess on the floor when all the decorations came off the tree last year. thank you for thinking of me again this year Lots of love and kisses Cats |

Subject: RE: BS: 2010 Secret Santas tormenting Santees! From: GUEST,Sinsull's Secret Santa Date: 05 Nov 10 - 09:18 PM Alliteration rocks! (Isn't that alliteration--three esses in a row?--whoops, sorry, distractible--) Since Sinsull seems to have a few fairly strong opinions about what she would like (and not like) from Santa, may he ask if she prefers her books hardcover or paperback? |

Subject: RE: BS: 2010 Secret Santas tormenting Santees! From: Barb'ry Date: 06 Nov 10 - 05:54 AM A man of few words, my Santa! Never mind, few words leaves more time for shopping! |

Subject: RE: BS: 2010 Secret Santas tormenting Santees! From: GUEST,Santa to the Hardiman Date: 06 Nov 10 - 06:40 PM ...who is a Fiddler. Hello, Hardiman the Fiddler. I'm your Santa. You're a bit quiet aren't you? No clues. Few posts. Never you mind. I've got together a present for you and it's left the Far-reaches-of-the-Earth bound for your place. I know you are a fiddler on the roof after your day's work. I like that image a lot and the roof is a good place to keep a look-out. Peace, Happiness and all the rest of the good things be yours, along with my present to you. HardiSanta of 2010. |

Subject: RE: BS: 2010 Secret Santas tormenting Santees! From: Severn Date: 06 Nov 10 - 11:19 PM There has been no word from my Santa. I wish he or she would come on-thread and play. I look at this stuff as part of the present. So, Santa, please let me know you're out there. Furthermore, my house brownies, Hash & McGhee, who look after my townshack report to me me there's been no sign of anyone elfin inquiring around after me. They keep me up on what's going on among the local wee folk and they've figured in my Christmas Chronicles the last few years. So far, there's nothing to chronicle. Dear Santa, will you or one of your staff please get in touch. Things have been entirely too quiet. |

Subject: RE: BS: 2010 Secret Santas tormenting Santees! From: GUEST,Severn's Singularly Squirrely Santa Date: 06 Nov 10 - 11:53 PM Never you fear, my impatient friend, your Santa's already hard at work planning the perfect punnishment for the bad boy my elves are sure you've been, Christmas Chronicles notwithstanding. Are you really as full of mischief as they report, or are they off the mark as usual? It's hard to get good elves these days, and I'm never quite sure about their tales... If it's any consolation, Santa hasn't heard from Santa's Santa either. Santa is most distraught. Someone else's elves may be even less reliable than Santa's own. Oh, dear! Must run -- I hear a dust-up in the workshop...which is what happens when Mrs. Santa forgets to use the decaffeinated cocoa in the hot chocolate. Oh dear. I do hope your gift hasn't gotten smashed in the melee. But never fear, I'll find you something. Your very own Santa |

Subject: RE: BS: 2010 Secret Santas tormenting Santees! From: SINSULL Date: 07 Nov 10 - 10:56 AM Santa, I am easily amused and distracted by shiny things, tiny baubles and most things. Paperbacks are easier to ship. And I will be happy with even an empty box. Remember the joy of a refrigerator box when you were eight? SINS |
|
Subject: RE: BS: 2010 Squirrely Santas tormenting Santees! From: Severn Date: 07 Nov 10 - 02:14 PM Dear Santa, Glad to hear from you and I hope you hear from your own Santa soon. I hope you're not squirrely to the point that you'll be getting nutting for Christmas. And I hope you can sing me some Christmas carols as well as, say, Squirrely Collins (or at least Alvin & The Chipmunks). But now that you're out and about, we can swap acorny joke or two or maybe some great Ochs songs. Just be careful crossing the street, as I still want you there for the holidays. As for missed behavior, due to the fact that I'm still rehabbing from burn injuries, I can only misbehave at half speed, which is probably the only reason you were able to find out about anything I managed to do. As for what I can get away with, just ask anyone I was at Getaway with.I'm still up to whatever old tricks I'm still up to, and the old techniques are still coming back to me. For a while, I was pretty much well-behaved by default (That is to say, my own fault. I'm no saint, not even Andreus). So keep in touch, and I'll take the fact that you haven't heard from your Santa yet as a clue of sorts. Until then, have your wee folk talk with my wee folk (part of the Wee Folk Process). Meanwhile, mail early, squirrely and often. I'll be waiting. 'Til then is now, Severn |

Subject: RE: BS: 2010 Secret Santas tormenting Santees! From: GUEST,Bat Goddess' SS Date: 08 Nov 10 - 07:00 AM Thanks for the tips on the other thread. Will now have a splendid time being totally devious. :-)))) |

Subject: RE: BS: 2010 Secret Santas tormenting Santees! From: GUEST,Severn's Singularly Squirrely Santa Date: 11 Nov 10 - 02:08 PM Squirreling pressies away for you, Severn. You do understand, I trust, that squirrels don't actually remember the places they've squirreled away their nuts? They are simply good at knowing where a squirrel is likely to have hidden a nut, and clever enough to look there when they are feeling peckish. So this means you could be getting an old nut for Christmas. Or maybe it means that you are an old nut ... or that I am, I'm not quite sure which. Oh, pardon me, but I must dash ... time to chitter at an odd pesky bird or two who are troubling my tree. Cheerio! Santa |
|
Subject: RE: BS: 2010 Secret Santas tormenting Santees! From: My guru always said Date: 12 Nov 10 - 04:12 AM Santa Dear, just checking in to report that I'm still being as good as I can, just in case you get reports otherwise! I've been wondering if you could tell me a little more about yourself? I mean, obviously you are caring and hard-working, but whereabouts are you? Any clues will be gratefully received.... |
|
Subject: RE: BS: 2010 Secret Santas tormenting Santees! From: Severn Date: 12 Nov 10 - 09:20 AM Dear Santa, " 'Twas the month before Christmas In your part of the worl' And a creature is storing It must be my squirrel....." I apprieciate your embarking from your tree on a squirrelled-wide search. I realize that finding and storing a p-stash of the proper amount of nuttin' for my Christmas is no day at the beech, especially when it's off-the-walnuts you have been seeking, spending all the cashew can spare. Those birds wouldn't be bothering you if only you'd stop eating all the fodder from their feeder. Let nothing you dismay, Your Anxiously Awaiting Santee |

Subject: RE: BS: 2010 Secret Santas tormenting Santees! From: Sarah the flute Date: 13 Nov 10 - 06:06 AM I'm being as good as I can be But I've had a tough week at work you see Fright Nite in my library yesterday Has left the place in disarray We chased the zombies around the school And everyone thought Chavula (aka Dracula but a Chav) was cool Despite being half drowned in his lair Bobbing for apples if you dare Then the yucky spider's nest beneath Put your hand in the muck to find dragons teeth For the luminous potion, so it is said The only thing to make a zombie dead Then stay up all night with ghostly tales In the gothic library...but what are those wails Only an Eviltron stuck to the wall With random cries to scare us all So now with all the zombies killed I can concentrate on christmas and be thrilled ....we had a good time but i am very tired!
