SECRET SANTA IS NOW CLOSED !!!

Due to the popularity of last years Secret Santa, and the recent enquiry about it, we have decided to run it again this year.

For those of you who weren’t involved last year, it goes like this

You send me a PM (and reply to thread) with your

Full Name
Full Address
Details of what you like (for example)

Disney – you could put ‘anything Disney’ or name some of your fave characters
Hobbies – e.g. Reading Horror stories, or gardening or what you collect
Other likes – Chocolate (Cadbury’s or Thorntons), smellies etc.

So everyone can PM me with their details until 9th October, I will put everyone’s name in a hat and pair you up with someone, I will let you know who you are paired up with by 16th October.

You will then buy that person a present for about £5.00, and it will need to be sent out by the 9th December (for those going away around these dates, please let me know so that presents can be sent out earlier/or if you are going soon and would like to buy your present whilst away, again just let me know and I’ll team you up early).

Once you have bought your present, you should wrap it up with a tag from ‘Secret Santa’ and once it has been sent I will start a thread in early December so you can let me know when you have sent it, and also when you receive your present. Maybe we could open them around the same day.

The Secret Santa is open to all UK-Disers. For our International Dis-friends, I believe that a similar thing is done on the US Community Boards where some UK-Disers who join in are able to exchange gifts with you.

If you can think of anything else, or want to join in, just let me know

Happy shopping !!!
