I will never forget the time that the gift sent to me didn't arrive until about two months later and was soggy and smelly: the postman had dumped a load of stuff in the Thames and when retrieved they still had an obligation to deliver it. Then my super-kind Santa sent a replacement.

I remember that year Sally-Kate

Our postie called today with the dog’s medication, he is such a nice chap but is getting so much grief they are being asked to work extra hours to deliver post but he can’t today his mum is t well and his boss was awful to him. They don’t want to strike its costing them their jobs ultimately. It’s hard knowing what to do for the best.

I remember that, sallykate!

Mine may have been attempted today, but my 08:30 hospital appointment turned into such a palaver that I have only been home for 20 minutes!

Whoop whoop. Despite the post issues it’s good to see parcels getting through.

We seem to have 10 parcels on their way and 3 in hand to be delivered hopefully soon.

Elves are speaking to santas. Thanks all for your elfing.

About This Thread

Maintained by geordiegirl
If you’d like to take part here are some instructions for the 2022 edition of Fetch Secret Santa:

1) Send an Fmail to geordiegirl with the name and address you want your parcel sent to by 1st November.

Please indicate if you’re ok to post to an overseas fetchie.

2) We don’t have a group now so I’ve added a tab to the spreadsheet for hints tips and allergies. Link here Spreadsheet Link Here docs.google.com

3) Be Involved..... Please try not to go AWOL the buying of a SS gift is a lovely thing to do but going quiet on the thread/blogs can make it difficult. We’re not asking you to be specific but a few hints around what things make you tick, what you like / enjoy makes it that bit easier and hopefully gets you something you would like.

Of course the main aim is stalking so subtle hints are fine!

4) if you have allergies or particular dislikes then feel free to put them in the group.....

When you receive the details of your victim:

5) Stalk said victim and determine their interests.

Hint.. you can see what threads your victim posts to by typing the below in Google or whatever

VictimsFetchName site:www.fetcheveryone.com

6) Purchase gift(s) you think they will like, we have suggested £10 but up to you and remember handmade gifts are perfect too. It’s the thought that counts.

7) I’m suggesting you post the gift by 1st December as this has helped a successful SS in previous years & we do have to contend with postal strikes this year too. But you can also add an update to the spreadsheet and keep your elf updated so we can let your victim know they’ve not been forgotten. If you are posting overseas please bear in mind it can take longer than UK post.

8) Wait by your post box for your gift.

9) Sit on hands until the big day! No cheating!

On the big day:

10) Open your gift and share with everyone what you got on the thread.
