Did you recieve your gift yet??
I can't even track it. I was just given
an order #
Thank you Donna!!! I got home late last night from work to find this package sitting on my kitchen table and I couldn't recall ordering anything....I love that slow sinking feeling I get every year when it finally dawns on me that my PJ SS gift has arrived!!!! Love the Chicago Cubs clock, I already have a space picked out in the "man room" for it.....it'll help remind me of how many minutes I will end up counting before I see them win another championship I wish you all the best this holiday season and thanks again!
Just want to give a special shout out to D and Helen for continuing what I feel is the BEST tradition of this fan club....to my SS, I am sorry your present did not arrive in time, but I promise you, it is on its way!.....Dimi has also kept up the fine tradition of picking the most remote places in the world for me to send gifts (Ireland, Israel, Finland, and now......"not telling just yet") Definitely not complaining, I am proud to share a piece of Canada, but our "snail mail" is the worst :fp: , as I'm sure my fellow Canadians will attest to.....as for everyone else, 2013 was very nice PJ-wise and '14 is already shaping up to be stellar.....so keep yourselves (and each other) safe this holiday season, and hold the ones you love close and never forget to remind them how much they mean to you....All the best!!

You did say you were a Cub's fan RIGHT?

Just think of it as a Pearl Jam Clock. Tick,Tick,Tick to Wrigley.
I'm so happy you received it.I went back to the Order and it said they would e-mail me when
it was shipped,And I hadn't seen one of those either.
Have a Very Merry Christmas Gerry.

Oh no, it's cool. They might be away for the holidays or something.
I was more worried it might not get there in time, but I know it did so that's great, and I hope they like it - and that it's not been delivered incorrectly or something.

I thought I posted this last night. thank you ss! I have been needing a new photo album and this one is perfect! I've never seen such a nice bookmark. I can put a picture off my grandson in there. (I always have a book with me) I really need a watch I'm always late,
Thank You so much!

Gotcha! I was just speaking from my own experience. I never ever heard one word from the person I gifted last year. That person confirmed with Dimi that they did receive the gift(s) that I sent but I never heard anything. I never even knew their board identity.

Many thanks to "PJTradeking" for the wonderful Zippo (now I have two of them ). Am thrilled. Please excuse the late notification, but the Christmas stress and the work were just too much.
Secondly, I would like to thank Dimi that he has everything organized again. Kudos to you, Dimi! Hope to see you in Berlin or Amsterdam!
Hey "mickeyrat", I hope you do not still have the records (and that you like them). Spin them and have much fun! Rock on! Oh yes, it's incidentally a sheep, not goat! For everyone else here the picture!
I thought for sure my person would have their gift by now. Was sent on the 16th.
Expected delivery was on the 21st but it looks to be stuck in transit so no Christmas delivery.
My apologies to my person but I hope the wait was worth it when you finally do receive your prezzie.
I really enjoy the process of getting a name with a small paragraph of info & trying to find
the perfect items to match that list. Awesome to see so many enjoying their gifts.
I did receive my gift yesterday. The PJ Dog-tag necklace is cool. Thanks Adidi
Kelly!!! "kellanazzie" I am overwhelmed with my gifts from you!!! Everything you sent to me is beautiful, and so "me." You outdid yourself, and I can't thank you enough. The lovely box everything came in, the scarf, the lightning bolt socks, the R.A Dickey baseball card, the Mets ornament, the book, the PJ bookmark, the PJ photos are unbelievable, the box of notecards, the PJ and Foo Fighters stickers and buttons, the mini notebook.... just perfect!!! And I love the post card and brochures from Canada as well; it's a beautiful place that I enjoy to visit! I was actually there 2x during this past tour (Toronto and Vancouver)!!! And your Christmas card is simply gorgeous!!! I love your creativity! Thank you so very much!! I will post some pics as soon as I figure out how to do it on here... Thanks Dimitris for matching me up with Kelly!! I had so much fun with this!!!! Love, Dawn

Glad you got it, sorry it was late.
Sent the box priority with tracking, insurance etc. to get there before Xmas. But it took weeks to cross the pond and after being processed through customs real quick it got stuck in transit only 10 miles from your house for another 4 days :fp:
It was such fun putting this together and to find out more about you. I didn't mean to spy on you though
Also sorry the EV DVD is actually a DVD box with CD's from both Amsterdam shows. I really wish I had the shows on video !! However the PJ Pinkpop shows are on DVD, hope it will play without problems with region code.
Forgot to tell you the art prints are made by Joolz D.
Best wishes for the New Year to you and all Secret Santa's and I hope to meet you in person at a PJ show soon
..... June 2014 ....... Amsterdam ....... Berlin ?!
And thank you Dimi for organizing this again, see you in Amsterdam

Hi Dawn!! It really brings me great joy to know you love your prezzie!! I was really excited when I got your info & my mind started going with ideas right away. I adore a challenge & getting to know new friends through this epic community. For me personally, this is a chance to give from the heart. To take the time to search out & experience the inner satisfaction of making this gift something personal for my person to treasure always. Enjoy my new friend, may we meet soon at a show near us!!!!! xoxo Kelly “As we work to create light for others, we naturally light our own way.”― Mary Anne Radmacher
Thank you Secret Santa! It arrived while we were in Canada for our annual PJ party there. I love everything! I got a tea towel by Artists of Yuendumu which is absolutely beautiful. Love all the colors and patterns. Chocolate Macadamias, a stuffed Koala which reminds me of one I had when I was a kid. Two beautiful calendars - one wall one Australian landscapes and a desk one from Australia Geographic. Both have absolutely gorgeous photographs! I really do need to visit sometime. A very cute Christmas ornament, a PJ Winnipeg sticker which was one of my favorite shows, 2 magnets and a sweet card with a note inside.
Thank you so much again and once again to Dimi for running the whole operation. Cheers and Happy New Year to everyone!

Early in December I got a message that I had a 10c gift card from jenn. So I'm guessing that's my Secret Santa but I don't know her screen name.
So here's how I decided to spend my gift card (which arrived while there was a sale on, even better!). I really don't have all that many bootlegs. I always intend to buy more, I read the threads about which shows to get, etc., then I can't decide and I only buy 1 or 2. I know, I look like a bad fan. :oops:
So among the ones I'd thought about buying when they were released were the set of 2009 Philly shows. I never got around to it. Then I'd look at them and think, "Should I buy a couple of shows? Should I buy the whole set?" And then never do it. So while I shopped with my gift card, I decided it was about time to get them!
So this arrived Christmas Eve:
Yes, I have to have the actual CDs, never downloads. It comes from having grown up buying albums. I have to have something I can hold and look at.
So, thank you, jenn! You helped me overcome my indecision and I have more great music to listen to! I hope you had a great Christmas and have a wonderful New Year!
If you haven't received a gift yet, it might be comforting to know that I shipped Priority via USPS from South Jersey to CT on 12/20/13. It still hasn't arrived. Tracking info says it went from here, to Philly, to Mass, to Maine, and now back to Mass. Perhaps they may never stop bleeding money if they can't figure out that CT is south of MASS & Maine!!!!! Ack! :evil:
Bryon from Evanston, NY I love, love, love, love my gift! How did you know? I had been on the hunt for this! Thanks so very much. It is the PJ poster from Denmark, 6/26/07 not that I was at that show, I was too busy delivering my son! So it is fitting and I totally love it!

And I love the post card and brochures from Canada as well; it's a beautiful place that I enjoy to visit! I was actually there 2x during this past tour (Toronto and Vancouver)!!! And your Christmas card is simply gorgeous!!! I love your creativity! Thank you so very much!! I will post some pics as soon as I figure out how to do it on here... Thanks Dimitris for matching me up with Kelly!! I had so much fun with this!!!! Love, Dawn
Glad you got it, sorry it was late.
Sent the box priority with tracking, insurance etc. to get there before Xmas. But it took weeks to cross the pond and after being processed through customs real quick it got stuck in transit only 10 miles from your house for another 4 days :fp:
It was such fun putting this together and to find out more about you. I didn't mean to spy on you though
Also sorry the EV DVD is actually a DVD box with CD's from both Amsterdam shows. I really wish I had the shows on video !! However the PJ Pinkpop shows are on DVD, hope it will play without problems with region code.
Forgot to tell you the art prints are made by Joolz D.
Best wishes for the New Year to you and all Secret Santa's and I hope to meet you in person at a PJ show soon
..... June 2014 ....... Amsterdam ....... Berlin ?!
And thank you Dimi for organizing this again, see you in Amsterdam

Thank you Secret Santa! It arrived while we were in Canada for our annual PJ party there. I love everything! I got a tea towel by Artists of Yuendumu which is absolutely beautiful. Love all the colors and patterns. Chocolate Macadamias, a stuffed Koala which reminds me of one I had when I was a kid. Two beautiful calendars - one wall one Australian landscapes and a desk one from Australia Geographic. Both have absolutely gorgeous photographs! I really do need to visit sometime. A very cute Christmas ornament, a PJ Winnipeg sticker which was one of my favorite shows, 2 magnets and a sweet card with a note inside.
Thank you so much again and once again to Dimi for running the whole operation. Cheers and Happy New Year to everyone!
Kelly! I am the same exact way, I love giving gifts from the bottom of my heart and to see the joy in other people!!! It is thee best feeling in the world!! I suppose that is why Dimitris matched us together.... He is one smart cookie
Thanks much!

So here's how I decided to spend my gift card (which arrived while there was a sale on, even better!). I really don't have all that many bootlegs. I always intend to buy more, I read the threads about which shows to get, etc., then I can't decide and I only buy 1 or 2. I know, I look like a bad fan. :oops:
So among the ones I'd thought about buying when they were released were the set of 2009 Philly shows. I never got around to it. Then I'd look at them and think, "Should I buy a couple of shows? Should I buy the whole set?" And then never do it. So while I shopped with my gift card, I decided it was about time to get them!
So this arrived Christmas Eve:
Yes, I have to have the actual CDs, never downloads. It comes from having grown up buying albums. I have to have something I can hold and look at.
So, thank you, jenn! You helped me overcome my indecision and I have more great music to listen to! I hope you had a great Christmas and have a wonderful New Year!
Thanks so much! Best gift I got all Christmas!
xoxo
