I did amazingly Doren sent two parcel full of real interesting gifts. I thanked him by sending one of my favourite ammonites from my collection , a card and some English marmalade. It went missing for weeks in the post but was delivered to his mailbox on Christmas Eve. What a friend he was, really something . That year Parker was running the SS.

I've been busyfor people from different countries and reached out to Agent_Zigzag (brilliant name). He's in touch with me in PM. I have been ing away behind the scenes, trying to get as many different countries and states of the USA involved. Hope no one feels I have been ing them. Just one PM, then if they don't reply or say no, I leave it. Anyway, it's working and today I have another country added to the list, the beautiful Republic of Ireland. So it's Fifty-Seven confirmed Santas, so far. Edited October 24, 2021 by Tidgy's Dad 2 2 Life's Good! Tortoise Friend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snolly50 Posted October 25, 2021 Share Posted October 25, 2021 @Tidgy's Dad I note that your list of worthy Santas is almost complete and I wished to take a moment to properly thank you for its compilation. The list is a valuable aide in streamlining my seasonal activity. I can mark off those signed up in the knowledge that they fully understand the spirit of giving and Joy of the season. This enables me to fully concentrate my efforts at terror on those miscreants who have NOT registered for Secret Santa status. Those grinchy Scrooges will get what's coming to them. Baaahahaha! I imagine a few stragglers may yet sign up and thereby avoid my visit, but the rest, well.......

Darbi Posted October 27, 2021 Share Posted October 27, 2021 (edited) @Tidgy's Dad, I decided not to participate this year, I'm sorry! All of my collections are still packed away after moving to my new place and I have been extremely busy. I'm almost never home and is on the road a lot, that's why I am relatively inactive on TFF for now. Thank you for reminding me. I hope I will have another chance to participate next year! Have fun, everyone! Edited October 27, 2021 by Darbi 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All the best Bobby I checked, and all I can say is that I am giving a try -- the regulation states only vertebrate fossils could not be export, but in some cases local postmasters stops everything from been shipped. I am trying to pack everything today! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
