Now you STOP that...!!! You are loved & respected here...you are still "beating yourself up" over things.... try to take it a bit easier on yourself....

Or we will all come up and kidnap you and make you sew us things for DAYS ON END!!!!! :D

I am going to repost this as a poll so I can get a quick glance at interest and to see how many people want a new santa. If the majority does want a change we will need some volunteers!

If I stay on, I may need an elf.

He is more of an imp and his duties are limited to drawing names.

Am I too far away to participate ??

shipping would be the only hurdle, I wonder how expensive it would be - there is always online shopping.

It is all done virtually. I make a questionnaire and then the folks that want to participate fill it out and send it in. Then, I make a list of names and have my hubby draw names for everyone. There is a deadline for gifts to be sent out and then we designate an opening day and start a gift opening thread - pics are much appreciated. ;-)

It has gone fairly smoothly in years past.

Well, as long as both my pressie and the one I'm sending too is not big then probably wont be an issue. Global priority postage is about $11.

US Dollars or Pounds?

Yes, I bought 2 miniature horse halters and they went in a global priority envelope and got safely to me !! A small book would also fit in one too and well as numerous other things - what sort of things do you buy, can I have some examples from last year please ?

Wow amazing stuff.......count me in. Is there a usual price that needs to be spent. Over here at work we do one that is a $10 pressie for instance. Looking at these pressie they are a lot more expensive than that !!....a clue on price would be good for me please?

I think after missing it on the other BB and then not having the nerve to join in at Christmas time on this board, I am now brave enough. Count me in. :D 8-)
