Iam on a couple of a dog forum and have joined up for a secret santa.
Its where you do gift exchanges for their dogs and get one in return.
Just wondering have u ever done secret santa on this forum?
I would love to take part in a cat one.:D

Hi Suzanne, I think we've done a couple in the past. We only ever had one US member and it was a bit of a joke as it was no secred if you received one from Eileen! However we now have several regulars from across the Atlantic so it might not be a total giveaway :lol:

I think someone with a little more time on their hands than I have needs to organize it though :shock:

I enjoyed it, and have thought of a way around the postmark problem: I'd send it to one of my friends in the UK and have her re-mail it ...that would surprise the recipient!

Sometimes getting Catsey people oganized is like herding cats! Tee shirts! But we did manage the Catsey calendar! If someone will volunteer I'm ready for a go again this year....... think there is enough time.

I'd love to volunteer but don't think I'll have time (got to organise Dylan's presents to everyone ie not dead things on Christmas Day presents like what happened last year :roll: )

sounds like fun but i've opted out of most thing like that this year due to finances, budget is much tighter around here this year.

Has anyone contacted Tilly to find out if we can organise this? or are we going to leave it this year?

I'm not sure Tilly comes on much anymore, but I may be wrong as I am away alot myself.
I really enjoyed it last year, I think one or two parcels went missing in the post which is sadly unavoidable at this time of year.
I will have to opt out this year though as I have way too much on my plate at the moment, sorry.

I did secret santa last year and will never do it again. I have given my reasons before. I just come and browse now as posting has backfired to many time for me. please leave me out of the discussion

many thanks

i also belong to a fish forum , where we do a secret santa card exchange , a thread was set up by the two of the moderators , any member wanting to to join in would then post IM IN and when the time was up each of the mods would have a list of the names . you would sent the card to the allocated person , and you would receive one form another...
you would submit your address via pm to the mod , they then pm your secret santas to you the same way..
im now awaiting my card to arrive any day now this is the 3rd year that i have done this and it is growing every year and is so much fun.
once we receive the card we would take a pic and post it in a thread
