Good thing _ as it actually did contain poo. AND it appears that the package had been opened at some point, perhaps by customs? But they didn't confisciate the poo. Details follow.

Apologies as I cannot get these ^%$#@ photos to situate correctly on this page...

First thing: Bones for the unlost dogs! (They say HOHOHO if you hold them the right way, IOIOIO the way they appear in this photo, and OHOHOH upside down:



Second thing: To set the proper context, you'd have to resurrect the late, lamented The Person Above Me Sucks Big Time thread, July 13, 2010, 12:36 p.m. when I responded to someone's comment about liking Marmite... I wrote "tpamsbt for eating plastic. (Marmite, with a name like that, whatever it is must be nonorganic material.)"



Third thing: Reindeer poo. Enough said. I completely LOVE IT!!!!



Final thing: And this is what I really, really love: A calendar filled with PJ20 images, including the museum, Alpine shots, and photos of many of those who are near and dear to me!




Nice work, theserialthrilla! You got me good, Kevin!

Smooch to you, my Marmite-eating, PJ toasting, reindeer pooing friend!

Totally jealous of the HP sauce. I loved that stuff while I was overseas a few years back.

And a guy that is crafty and original! Way to go Kevin

I received a package a week or so ago.. it clearly says 1 of 2 on it, as well as saying "only open with the other package" I havent received the 2nd package... thinking I should try and contact the sender to let them know...

what do you think peeps? Should I wait a bit?

Yep. :thumbup:

Totally wait! Maybe one doesn't make sense without two

I was wondering if they arrived safely. As they were sent together, I was hoping that they would probably get there together. (oh USPS... )

Its ok, you can open it. (waiting that long would have driven me crazy - you have good restraint). They are somewhat related, but can be enjoyed separately.

I hope the other one gets to you this week and not lost in postal la la land. (maybe customs is enjoying the package and don't want to let it go :x )

You should know better than that!

even flow - question mark

One bubble pack arrived this morning from the postman. It is now under the tree as the first official gift of the season taking up it's new place. Thank you sender! I do wait until Christmas Day to open the Secret Santa gift. So I can't really comment too much more on it. I just wanted to post a little note to let the sender know that it has arrived. Thank you!!

Dear God, I hope it isn't a zombie in a box.

You know, that's where they film The Walking Dead.

Being Enlightened

Got a card from my SS last week (which advised me to wait until I receive the red box before I open the card ). I received the red box a few days ago and have put both card and gift under the Christmas tree thinking that I'll have enough will power to wait until the 25th. I don't think I will make it to Christmas before I open it though. Thank you ever so much Secret Santa!!! I will post again when I finally give into the call to open it.

Merry Christmas!! Thanks again!

Post Office says that my package will reach its destination on Monday...woot!
