Capt. Bo of the WTF co. Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 Mine arrived yesterday. A very generous pyrate santa indeed! The ground cloth was perfect as my ancient one gave up the ghost during deer camp this year. The grenado is very cool and I will have to watch over it closely, Warren has designs to fill it with powder and test it!!! The flints fit the only flinter I have left, my blunderbuss. I will never run out of buttons, and the tankard will be used with Fat Tire. Needles and sinew, goes in the leather/saddle repair box, and I put my .375 bullets for my Remington 1863 revolver in the bag. Wow what a great bunch of gifts! Thanks Santa!

Iron Jon Posted December 14, 2012 Share Posted December 14, 2012 Just finished my gift today-hopefully it'll make it to the post office tomorrow. Jonathan Washbourne "Jonathan Washbourne Junr of Bridgwater appeared in court and was ordered to pay £5 fees and charges or be publicly whipped 20 stripes for his abusive and uncivil behaviour to Elizabeth Canaday Late of said Bridgwater by Thrusting up or putting of a skunk under the Cloaths to her Naked Body And then saying he had Done the office of a midwife."

Duchess Posted December 19, 2012 Author Share Posted December 19, 2012 My package arrived a few days ago, thank you for the lovely little items Secret Gift Giver!

Stynky Tudor Posted December 20, 2012 Share Posted December 20, 2012 I got a reproduction deck of 1750s Playing Cards and a set of dice modeled from a pair of 1400s German dice - all very, very cool. I also got a couple good size blocks of University of Wisconsin Cheese, one Cobblestone Red and one Colby Jack - I expect to be breaking into that later on tonight. Now I could have swore there was a bar of Divine Dark Chocolate, but that seems to have disappeared after showing my girlfriend. Thank You Pub Santa, you're Wonderful! Thanks again Duchess for corralling us kittens and making all this happen - you're awesome! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coastie04 Posted December 23, 2012 Share Posted December 23, 2012 I got a pirate CD (sorry, forgot the title/group and it's already in my car and just not worth braving the single digit temperature right now to check the name-but the few tracks I've listened to so far have been good), a hand knitted monmouth cap, a pirate coffee mug (will be well used after baby's teething starts...which is now!), some replica doubloon coins, and a Mystery of the Seas book. And it arrived perfectly on time, as we were opening presents early before heading south to visit family. Postman delivered it just as we were finishing with presents. I'll try to remember to post photos after returning next year. Thank you!

Quartermaster James Posted December 28, 2012 Share Posted December 28, 2012 (edited) My gift arrived some time ago, and I opened it over the holiday. Great Neptune's Man Nipples! What an embaressment of riches! I was sent: A Correct & New Chart of The World, circa 1700; A Chart of the Isles Antiles; A Set of period Tobacco Papers; A Pair of Brass Dividers; A small wooden Box inset with a coin; and, A Leather shot/powder snake. All, I might add, quite cleverly packed for their voyage. Thank you Secret Santa! Edited December 28, 2012 by Quartermaster James Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iron Jon Posted January 3, 2013 Share Posted January 3, 2013 Well, another week has gone by and still nothing here. I guess it's time to give up on it.

michaelsbagley Posted January 3, 2013 Share Posted January 3, 2013 I should have spoke up earlier.... But I received a wonderful gift from my secret Santa back in the middle of December. I was gifted with some home made mead (which I am saving for a special occasion), a pound of some great bitter nectar of life ("Deadman's Reach" brand coffee), and a pair of glasses from a micro-brewery. Thank you so much secret Santa, your gifts are very generous and appeal to all my favourite things in life! I also want to apologize as I am one of the late Santas... My gift went out today and will arrive in time for Twelth Night (or Orthodox Christmas if you prefer). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iron Jon Posted January 7, 2013 Share Posted January 7, 2013 I was away for the weekend and found a great gift waiting on the porch for me upon my return. I, once again, believe in Santa and I take back all those terrible things I was thinking about him. I received a beautiful handmade leather portmanteau that will definitely see lots of use for many years. Thanks Santa... (and I know who you really are now!)

Duchess Posted January 9, 2013 Author Share Posted January 9, 2013 Alright, I think we're winding down here. Is there anyone besides Gertie who is still waiting for a gift? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elena Posted January 11, 2013 Share Posted January 11, 2013 (edited) Me, but in my case it is expected. Customs are crowded after holidays. It can last even to the end of January. I hadn't heard if my envelope arrived, but I hope it did.

Elena Posted January 25, 2013 Share Posted January 25, 2013 (edited) I thank my secret Santa Gunpowder Gertie. My husband has claimed some of the sweets (I would have shared anyway). I also received a bosun's whistle portkey and a naplin holder/ book holder with a pair of brass galleons, some chocolate dollars and a wonderful personalized card with the coin from PoTC movies. I hope I haven;t forgotten to mention anything. Bad headache here, threatening to become a migraie at the most innopportune moment. (Having lots of preparation for tomorrow's memorial at the cemetery).
