Eyy. Now that Disco has had her present and gone done opened it, let's try and work out who her secret satan is.
So, Disco - what kind of jelly beans are they? How were they wrapped? What was the postmark on the parcel?

After having stalked my victim (umm recipient) thru the interweb trying to match real name to username to have some little clue about what the hell to get him/she/it . I have now bought pressie covered parcel in sellotape (my favourite bit) and stood in queue at post office for several days. IT IS DONE! .

I think the Sacred Satan recipients should go ahead and open their parcels as they receive them. Particularly because I don't think any of us will be spending time on Christmas checking TMO. Or will we?

I'm going to see if I can wait until tomorrow before I rip it open. I already know who it's from tho... but this has in no way lessened the excitement.

I done got home to find mine waiting for me! Also, I forgot mad name I gave to Dang as crap-faux-disguise - the husband had to collect parcel from the neighbour and was slightly sheepish.
Currently I am charging some batteries for the digo-camera. Then I will open it and make pictores come on the interweb.

Aha! It is yet another mysterious package! Curiouser and curiouser....
Look! It is excellent present number one!
Look again! It is excellent present number two!
That Christina Aguilera has a way with words! Here she is telling me "More people should really hear me sing. I have a gift from God." Indeed. She has inspired me to flick the Vs. At her words.
Thank you for my gifts, secret satan! [rolf]Can anyone tell who it is yet?[/rolf]

its from ringo. there are cars on the packaging.
i dont have a digital camera (i am hoping for one from not so secret santa, in fact it will be purchased from atlanta international airport on sunday afternoon sometime) so i shall try and describe my package with the power of my wurdz.
1. small jar of gourmet jellybeans yay! i am eating them as i type. luckily they are not jelly belly which always funk me off as they have those two flavours that are really mung and nearly make you want to do a technicolour jellysick in the back of the x-mo taxi (this happened to me in 1997!). what are those flavours again? oh yeah, ASS and EXTRA SPICY ASS. and theres another one which tastes like a dirty ASS-TRAY.
anyway, these are not them, thank mungus. eyyyyy badda badda badda ser-wing SANTA!
2) a stainless steel balance-y acrobat balance-y desk toy, just like the one i had when i was 12. eyyyyy badda badda badda ser-wing SANTA!
3) i just got a root beer jelly bean! they are my best flavour! eyyy badda badda badda ser-wing SANTA!
4) a thing that sticks to your wall with suckers, that has clips on it that you can hang small things from. to be honest i havent a clue what you hang from it- very small x-mo cards, mayhap. but it is good and i like it! eyyyy badda badda badda ser-wing SANTA!
5) a lavender knicker drawer sachet with a teddy bear on. very necessary. eyyy badda badda badda ser-wing SAN-TA!
all in all a veritable haul of pirate treasure for the chrismukkah season. i was slightly disappointed when i realised that the bratz box was just window dressing but thats only because someone pointed out to me that bratz dolls' mouths look like vuhgeenuhs and i wanted to check for myself, but shrug, theres always next year!
oh and by the way- my parcel is from saltrock. i know this because:
1. girl's handwriting
2. the bratz packaging
3. it said the postcode on the label, and i have a pathetically wide knowledge of the postcodes of the southwest from my time working on 999.
i just ate my last jelly bean. ken-e-dy ken-e-dy ken-e-dy SER-wing santa

Exce-lol extremus! I love disco, I do.
Despite car wrapping, Ringo was not my secret satan! I know who it is because I read the delivery note that came on the outer packing (check out my crap Marple stylin). There is big clue in actual presents, mind.

but you do have to figure out which one gave which (the shipping receipt won't give it away since they were both shipped by the same person).

I sent my present shiny first class a week ago. I hope it got lost, rather than the givee is to embarrassed to acknowledge it.
This is lots of fun though, why didn't we do it before?

Yowser! I too have a package from New England! And it rules! So much trouble... so much thought. Makes my gift look even more shit than it was before.
It contains:
'Candy' - some particularly saliva-gland-provoking-looking starburst jelly beans, and a pez dispenser in the shape of america's finest hero - the firefighter.
A lovely purple fuzzy journal, which is remarkably prescient as I have just started keeping a journal.
A CD of cracking Xmas tunes, such as 'jingle bell rock' and ''i saw mummy kissing santa claus'
and a DVD of US quality comedy, plus fave choons, to brighten up the long winter nights.
COLL!!
My Clouseau-like detectiv skillz have told me that it is from the male half of the Frooprooster. This is due to the style of writing of the note, the general technological bent, and the fact that he gets the horn at one of the ladies' voices.

I posted mine this morning. I went to the post office at 9.47am and was out by 10.00am. That's the secret folks - go early in the morning to avoid the queues. It went off first class so should be arriving soon...

In my experience, Post Offices in the early morning usually contain an army of silver-haired coffin-dodgers, looking for trouble. Avoid!

This scheme appears to be ticking over very nicely. Santa is very pleased with you all. Checking the Santabase against posts on here I see that six people have not yet mentioned whether they've sent their secret present (although there's no reason why they should mention it) and also that ten people have sent parcels but not had confirmation of receipt. Hopefully we can expect some entertaining gift-unwrapping tales over the next few days then.
