Quartermaster James Posted December 25, 2008 Posted December 25, 2008 (edited) Well, it's Christmas in Pub time, so I guess I'll spill the beans now. I got a lovely metal Popeye lunch tin filled with DVDs of classic Popeye cartoons (some Heckle & Jeckle too!), a Popeye keyring, a jar of homemade cherry preserves (Yumm!), and (of course) a can of spinach! Thank you Secret Santa! Edited December 25, 2008 by Quartermaster James

Ransom Posted December 31, 2008 Posted December 31, 2008 The postman tried to deliver mine yesterday, but since our gate was closed, wouldn't come in (apparently the bx won't fit in our mailbox out on the street). So, I got a notice that I need to go pick it up in town. Will do that today. ...schooners, islands, and maroons and buccaneers and buried gold...

Silkie McDonough Posted December 31, 2008 Posted December 31, 2008 FedEx Guy woke at about 10:00 for a signature. I almost missed him. This is one time that I was glad the dog barked her fool head off. lol The box contained a bronze colored statue of 3 dolphins jumping with the waves. A small wooden "treasure" box painted gold & copper containing a pair of starfish earrings. A 500 piece "3D Visions" puzzle of a fantasy scene with a tall ship, a woman on the bo of the ship and larger woman (larger than the ship). The ship is all lit up with small lights along the mast's, yard's and the gold which fills the waist. A box of Pina Colada confections. A metal sign that has an aged feel to it's design it has a pirate woman in bucket boots sitting on a treasure chest and it says "Y can have me Booty but leave me chest alone!" lol I think that is it ...I could be missing something ...so many goodies in one box! lol Thanks Secret Santa!
Ransom Posted December 31, 2008 Posted December 31, 2008 Finally got my Secret Santa gift. OMG!!! A wooden ale keg piggy bank, a beautiful small cedar chest with lovely metalwork on the top and sides, and it is filled to the brim with beads, buttons, treasures, pearls.....in other words, everything a jewelry maker would love. All accompanied by a very thoughtful personal note. THANK YOU SO MUCH, SECRET SANTA, I LOVE IT ALL. ...schooners, islands, and maroons and buccaneers and buried gold...

Duchess Posted January 3, 2009 Author Posted January 3, 2009 Hi Everyone, This is your friendly Exchange Organizer here. Please contact me if you have not yet received your gift. I'll start looking into missing items now. Thanks.
Red-Handed Jill Posted January 4, 2009 Posted January 4, 2009 I'm still waiting for mine - but I had been told that it would be late.
Mission Posted January 4, 2009 Posted January 4, 2009 Say.....I didn't get anything. Just a hint of a minor, slight suggestion...maybe it would be wise to have people PM you if they didn't get anything?

But initially he wanted to be a pirate."

Red Bess Posted January 12, 2009 Posted January 12, 2009 Is it time to reveal the gift-givers identities? I think I know who my Santa was (or at least I have it narrowed down) but I'd like to know for sure. Ladies in Scarlet: Piratical Art and Accessories
