Time to think about Secret Santa

[Mrs.Anteater]

So, with Halloween done, it’s time to look ahead. Our tradition of Secret Santa. Please send me a message with your address if you want to participate. We switched from parcels to (larger) envelopes due to the rising costs of everything.
Please post here any allergies and dislikes ( there were a few with issues with scent).
I will do the draw November 12 th.

Will pass again this year.

I used to enjoy hosting a virtual version but gave it up a few years ago. I grew frustrated with folks changing their minds about whether or not they would participate. The last straw was one of our members using the game to be deliberately mean to another. Enough said.

Sorry, I don't want to be a Debbie Downer. Just sharing some thoughts.

Have fun you guys! I always enjoy reading about the gifts you receive.

Go ahead! Feels much too soon but it's actually not. I've been a slow poke every year, but I'll put my name in. Just don't expect anything much any time too soon from me.

Ninj, I have the feeling every secret Santa, you have moved to a different place… don’t forget to send me your new address.

Thank you for organizing this, Mrs. A. I hope everyone involved has a lot of fun with it. The years I participated in it were really great.

That said, this year, I'll pass. I mean, for one thing the mailing cost here to Korea is about three times what it is from one Canadian address to another

The years I participated in it were really great.

Really? The year that you backed out after I'd got your name was not very pleasant for me.

 

[BetteTheRed]

Jae, just shut off AI and be an a**hole full time. It's really more 'you'.

 

[Jaebius]

Am deeply sorry if that happened, Bette. I have no clear memory of that having taken place. Please forgive me for any unpleasantness my need to withdraw from the program may have caused you

 

[BetteTheRed]

if that happened

A perfect example of your total level of a**hole gaslighting behaviour. *sigh* you can spoil everything, even Santa. You are a complete total and absolute twat.

Ok, fellows, stop this in this thread, please.
Jae would not have qualified for it anyway, because he was too unreliable in the past Secret Santa anyway, and as he says himself, the postage to Korea is too expensive to send him something without getting a return.

 

[BetteTheRed]

I apologize.

 

[Redbaron]

I'm interested. Thanks for organizing this!

 

[BetteTheRed]

I'm in. No perfume, no cow's milk. Address may never change.

 

[KayTheCurler]

I'm in. I enjoy getting gifties! No perfume please.

 

[Northwind]

I'm in. I am not interested in sending anything to Korea so I'm happy to hear that Korea doesn't qualify.

No perfume or scents please.

 

[ninj]

I'm happy with pretty much anything. Things that can just go in a regular card envelope like bookmarks are always nice.

I'll join this year.

Note: for those for whom distance / postage is a problem, one can always buy something on line, and have it delivered.
I did that for Nutmeg one year.
I also did it for Seeler.

Keep in mind, JayneW, we are down to envelopes, no big parcels, just something small.

That's a great idea, Jayne. Thank you for sharing it with us. I love that. Really. But, still, I'll pass this year

We have had some reports about unkind language concerning a poster in this thread; we would ask that it stop, please and thank you. This is supposed to be a fun thread; let us spread joy and anticipation, rather than slams and disses.

By the same token, the thread is intended for those who are participating in the Secret Santa; while everyone is free to read the posts, we would respectfully request that those who are not planning to be involved to refrain from posting. Thank you, enjoy the thread, and the Secret Santa program.
