Most people wrap the gift in Christmas paper so if you remove the package from the postal wrapping, you should be OK.

Okay, I gave in, it was driving me crazy.
Thank you my very special "just because" forum friend.  I will think of you every time I use it, so very special and such a total surprise

Wowee. They are really good. Iced tea as well as hot. It is lovely to receive "just because" gifts.

Noice Emme. Very useful. Noticed tea 2 has a couple new teas out I must try. Trying to keep  away from that place though.

I think my SS gift arrived today! I don't remember ordering anything from POK. ;D
I am not game to open the box as I don't think it would be gift wrapped inside.   DD has offered to check, but I couldn't handle her knowing what's inside if I don't!
It is marked fragile and is quite light. I'm not game to shake it!

It came at exactly the right time - today is the only day I'm at home this week, and if anyone else had taken delivery of it, it may not have remained intact!
I was also having quite a trying morning, so it gave me a real lift.   :)

Thanks SS   :-*

I have organised part of my SS's gift and have ideas for the rest.  Just need to pull it all together and send it off, or maybe I already have  :P

I love all this outsourcing with secret Santa stuff. POK . WOW! Don't you be opening it yet.

I should have thought about POK  but  my trip to Tassie proved sooooo interesting.

I don't know who my SS was last year and I  don't want to know this year either.

I'm not tempted to open it, Gert. I have no idea what it could be, but it's just delicious to have it sitting there, knowing that someone chose it just for me.  :)

Very exciting. I love seeing the photos of them all. Places like Book Depository, POK, Kitchenwarehouse and others are so exciting.

Super effort there SS people.

Have you got a smart phone or iPad?

Sorry to be so long responding, Gert, we just got back from our Tasmanian holiday last night and there are 5 pages of posts to catch up on on here.

I've got Android (Samsung), but also a digital camera.

Well you can download you pics froM your digital camera to your PC and upload directly it the forum from there. You may have todjust the size on your photo thingy on you PC first. Or maybe Tapatalk have an app for android . I know nothing about android devices.

Actually we should discuss this in the iPad tips and tricks thread or start and android tips and tricks thread. I'll start that and we can go there.
