My package was waiting for me when I got home today, too - hooray!!!  And I definitely know who my Secret Santa is based on the name on the box, but I won't say who it is - when I open my package and post pictures of its contents, we'll see who can guess who my Secret Santa is :)

Most splendid!

I am broken hearted. 

Today, wifey ran off with the guy who delivers my parcels.

Oh, my goodness, I will miss him.  Crying.gif.1beaadb6ac1cb2e01f7ac3bcd5f14101.gif

I met my wife at a nightclub. 

I thought she was at home looking after Tidgy.

This happend some years ago:

Three persons sitting in a car, I was the driver, reversing the car on very narrow road on a step hill.

First person: "Be carefull, I have a child at home."

Me: "Ok, will do, I have ill parents at home."

Third person: "Ah, go on, I have a wife at home."

No joke, just reality!

This morning I tried to swim the Straits of Gibraltar. 

But I put on too much grease.

I kept slipping out of the water.

Bet you'd never guess what my favorite type of paper is.  Hint: It is made (in a fashion) by elephants!

They make moose paper too (gotta love Alaska lol)

In the meantime, entries are now closed, so I really don't need whiny people complaining that they have missed it this year. 

It's been advertised for weeks and weeks and my lovely helpers have alerted lots of people, as have I. 

Thanks especially to @DarktoothDave, @fifbrindacier Sophie and @Bobby Rico Bobby, for their help here. 

Sorry but I'm gonna whine :DOH: My own darn fault for spacing on reading this forum section for weeks. Will have to put alarm in my phone to remind me to check next Oct lol. I could have even thrown in one of Caldiggers last trades :shakehead: Great to know he's being remembered. Have a great exchange :thumbsu:

I am actually very happy to have someone who missed it. Someone missing it and whining is one of the traditions of Secret Santa and I would have been most disappointed to not have had one this year. ;)

Seriously though, if I am in the position of running this or helping to run it next year, I have written your name down and will give you an alert. But still set your alarm clock, just in case.

I guess so. It looks like they blend it with things like pine needles and corn husks. I think they can make it out of any kind of herbivore poop. The only kind I've used is that made from elephant poop. It saves the trees makes the elephants more welcomed.

The plumber came today and said to wifey, "Where's the drip?"

She said, "He's in the bathroom trying to fix the leak."
