    Did you recieve your gift yet??
    I can't even track it. I was just given
    an order # ;)

    Thank you Donna!!! :D 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!!!! :lol: 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 :lol: 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?
    I will shit if it was another team.
    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. :)

  • I got an interesting package in the mail today. Randomly, I received the Worcester, MA show! Either Santa really exists or my Secret Santa totally came through!!! Thanks for the boot!!! Happy Holidays everyone and Happy New Year!

    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.

    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.

  • WOW!! Thank you to my secret santa- Hex / Jojo!! I cannot believe how much effort you put into this, it is amazing.
    I must apologize for not providing any helpful info about myself. It looks like a you worked hard at putting this together, and I love every bit of it!
    Here's what she sent me:
    - an led snowflake ornament
    - 3 beautiful prints
    - Golden Earring "Moontan" coasters, cd (never knew they were Dutch!)
    - copy of "Hex", a cd from Joolz Denby, and where Jojo got her board name.
    - EV in Amsterdam 2012 DVD
    - PJ forest tee, PJ tote, PJ stickers from Europe tours
    - A beautiful butterfly clip, which reminded her of my GTF tattoo
    - PJ tow truck iron on decal
    - "New Model Army" tee, lanyard and cd's (her other favorite band)
    - a set of PJ buttons/pins, wristband
    - star shaped votives
    - wire reindeer

    Plus a lovely letter explaining her gifts to me, and telling me about herself. I cannot say how grateful I am for all of these wonderful items. Thank you so much Jojo, my new friend, I just love it all.
    I will try and post a photo tomorrow, you guys have to see all of this.

    Many thanks to "PJTradeking" for the wonderful Zippo (now I have two of them :D ). 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!
