Hi
I have PMd Amy my postal address, I notice that there are now over 9 pages on this thread which is fantastic.  But it would be really useful ? Amy if you are around today, if you could put a summary up on the general guidelines ie price of gift, when to send etc etc.so I don't have to read thru the whole lot!!!!

Thanks for organizing it sounds like fun .😄

This is a secret Santa thing so I do not think we need guidelines. Whatever you would like and whatever price you can afford or want to pay Is my idea.

Let's keep it simple. Once you start making  guidelines you are getting into the things I so dislike about Christmas giving.

Give from the heart. Accept in the spirit it is given. It does not matter to me at all.  Just the delight in receiving a gift meant for me is heart warming.

The gift I sent  is worth very little but I am hoping the recipient  will be pleased I chose it just for her or him.

A lump of coal is equal to a lump of gold if it is sent with good wishes.

I will not be visiting this thread again.  A secret is a secret. My job is done.

Thanks GHM and Chookie ;D

For those who want it, I have rewritten my first post on the first page of this thread to summarise basically what we are doing. I've also listed all the participants so far ;)

Gretch is right, we are giving from the heart and having fun together. Thats the main thing :D
