Well.. today was the day! As I had just cleared the living room to give the parquet a good cleaning and waxing, there was a welcome knock at the door (to be honest, even Jehovah's witnesses at the door would have been welcome at this stage!). But no, not Jehovah's witnesses but the postman with a parcel.... MY parcel! A BIG thank you to my Secret Santa, who's name is still Secret Santa as he/she has not revealed herself/himself! xxxxx

Image

All the way from Canada

Image

Mine!
Image

It says I'm getting Odds and Ends....
Image

Sniffer cat in action, just in case it's something sinister....

Image

Opened, and confirmation it is definitely for me!

Image

ooOOoo... lovely!!!!
Image

In more detail - the wine I look forward to trying (don't know it - googled and it seems it's a lovely desert wine)...
Image

A mixed CD of Canadian bands!!! (Also googled...)

Image

And what you would think another lovely Christmas card but no....

Image

Look more closely...A selection of Canadian coins - I'm now all set for when PJ play Canada.
Image

And many thanks from the sniffer - a massive supply of 'toys'... Made her feel better. As you can see, she's had a little operation!
Image

Good fun, she thinks but...
Image

They do sort of stick in the 'collar'!

My SS recipient still hasn't replied to whether or not they have received their gift. They haven't logged on to the board since mid-December either. I hope all is well and that they've received their pressie.


Hey redrock, you may want to indicate no SS presents from Canadians next year :lol: Despite our best efforts, you have horrible luck receiving them before Xmas :wtf: :crazy: Btw, did the calendar that I sent separately last year ever show up?

The calendar did turn up. Sorry... didn't I tell you - I thought I did.... :oops:

I don't mind when the SS turns up. It's always good fun! And the cats always seem to enjoy it too (only one this time, the others were sleeping!)

Redrock, love all your pictures. (Even the cone of shame ones.)

It took almost a month to ship from the US to Canada this year. What's up with that? Seems very long...
