    @staceyd1800‌ Oooh!! So happy it arrived and nothing is damaged (or is it?) And even more happier you like it! I thought you'd love some dutch things. And the tin with "chocolate" is no chocolate haha! It says 'Stroopkoeken' and in the tin are real dutch cookies, hope you'll like them, but I definitely love them! And I didn't know if you already had the Beatles vinyl, but I think you didn't had this Holland made vinyl... :wink: And the tin is antique, so a bit rusty on the inside, but it's typical dutch and there's a nurse on it. So when I saw it I just had to buy it for you. But it was my first time that I joined and am so glad you like the stuff and can't wait to do it again next year! For now; have a nice christmas and enjoy your cookies!! :blush:

    Yay!! Thank you, Thank you Thank you so very much Gillian B from Almelo in Netherlands. I couldn't find your board name on the package or the card, maybe I missed it. But I'm gunna guess GillyBoks is/was my SS.. So hopefully you're following these posts to confirm.
    image Looks like Customs unwrapped every gift and rewrapped them half assed, except for one gift, it was still all wrapped nice and neat.
    Thank you for including a Little Description card with each gift. That was awesome! image
    Only one casualty - one fry tray was broken, I'll add it to my coke collection cabinet... I LOVE all the stuff you sent and the Coke can will go perfect in my Collection. Please thank your son for the Dog toy, I'm sure my Max will have some fun with it. Perfect timing to get the package, I was doing some baking with my girlfriends that very night and the Apron came in very handy. My guests insisted that they wanted to have tea in the awesome mugs you sent. So, they had tea and the cookies you sent and we had a great evening. Thank you again. Merry Christmas
    Prettige Kerstdagen Everyone!!

    Thank you so much to my Secret Santa, Danee, for the wonderful gift! It's an artistic print with the lyrics to Elderly Woman. Thank you also for your thoughtful card. After reading it I thought, now I have a Pearl Jam friend in the midwest. You are the best! I'm sorry but I don't see your board name on the card, so please reveal yourself if you choose!

    @northerndragon - My sweet Secret Santa of the north was good to me. I love the picture going to hang it up in my office. I wanted to wait (Sorry) to open on Christmas Day, but was way too excited.

    Part 2 of my Secret Santa gift arrived today and Wow! Mahndog, you've outdone yourself. Seven - count 'em - seven discs, bootlegs and videos, including my Milwaukee show, and Benaroya Hall. I can hardly wait. Thanks so much, Mahndog. (Oh, plus a tiny stickman sticker :D )

    @JarmoVanDijk‌ Nothing at all was damaged by customs although they did tear through everything! The cookies are amazing. I thought it was chocolate :smiley: I've listened to the Beatles vinyl several times and LOVE it! I did not have this one :smile: The tin is beautiful and I thank you so very much for all of the gifts! I loved every single one!! Not completely sure if this is correct but here goes..... Vrolijk Kerstfeest en een Gelukkig Nieuwjaar!!!!

    @Jaws‌, I am glad you like the gifts. I had a lot of fun shopping for them with my son. I was a bit worried that customs would be a problem. I am pleased to see they re-packed the gifts, even if it is a bit.....ehm crappy. The fun thing of receiving gift is unwrapping :)) Well enjoy and prettige kerst!!

    I'm glad you like it and that everything got there. That St Paul show was amazing, I was so happy I was lucky enough to be there. You Minnesotans sure put out the welcome mat and put on an event :) Merry Christmas

    Not sure if my SS is on here much - LotusPearl73, but I just wanted to thank you for the awesome SS gift!! The card and the pillowcase are so cool. Where did you find the wave sticker that you put in the card?? I think that's my favorite part! :)
    The E.V. pillowcase is really cool... We just need to decide where to put it so the kitty cat doesn't destroy it! :)) (Nice likeness drawing of our Mr. Frisco, too, btw!)
    Thanks again!! Merry Christmas!! :x

    Thank you so much Wendy "Tinkerbell" Carr!! I received all my wonderful gifts all the way from New Zealand!! I LOVE the scarf you knitted for me - in my favorite color! The NZ calendar is beautiful and the book is hilarious! I can't wait to put up my Christmas tree and hang my new ornaments. And Thank you for the bootlegs of Milan and Trieste (I assume they are from you, they came from nugs). Exactly what I wanted!!! I am so excited to have a new friend on the other side of the planet! Thanks again and Merry Christmas!!!! I will send a photo to Dimi because I still can't figure out how to post a picture on here.

    I have received mine from Catarina... I'm sorry I took some pics of her present but I'm not able to put them here on forum.. I'm not so familiar with forum.. (Maybe this is my second or third message here)..
    I just want to say thanks again to my SS Catarina (from Slovakia) and Ann (from US) ..
    This was my first experience of SS.. Next time I will try to be more creative!

    I just got an email from dimi so check your email. You can send him the pics thru email and he'll post for you. He's got a lot of free time cuz they don't do shit in Greece except eat and have sex. Ask dimi, he'll tell you he eats for about 30mins and then he has sex for about 3 mins and then his days free. He needs to find something to do with his 23 1/2 hrs left in the day for him. Especially since there's no setlist thread or tour for him to occupy his time. =))

    Thank you so much Brian!! I think you are 'brianfromky'? If not, let me know! :) But thank you so much for your fantastic gifts! I received it Friday, opened it yesterday and now I'll post a photo on this forum. I loved everything that was in the package! There were 3 (actually 4) cd's in it; one of TresMts, another one of Brad and a 2-cd bootleg of Bob Dylan wich was recorded here in my Homeland The Netherlands! Absolutely awesome! There was also a pin from St. Louis 2014 in it and definitely love that one! I only had the Amsterdam pin, and now I can add the St. louis pin to my collection. And then there were also many, many PJ stickers in it and love all of them! And last but not least, there was a beautiful PJ christmas card in it, with pictures that Brian took! Such a beatiful card with a very nice message in it! So again; Thank you so much for everything Brian! It was the first time I joined this Secret Santa party and can't wait to do it again next year! Thanks! And have a nice Holiday, a wonderful Christmas and a very good 2015! :-bd
