A hand typed letter on fancy Australian customs letterhead wasn't enough?
I suppose it would be if it a prank letter by @TheIronMonkey
Shut her down Mike and let’s get ready for 25’
Thanks Mike, looking forward to PMSS25!
I just emailed my entry and wish list…
Thanks for another year of good work, Mike! I didn't follow this thread as it unfolded though I wish I did see what everyone got. But I don't have time to go through 2k posts of "som besths" to find the gems. Not sure if it's possible to update post 1 with links of the hauls as they come in which would be sweet for us living vicariously through the thread but maybe that's just too much work.
Som besths to all you som besths!
Thank you so much Mike for a successful Som Besths! You are the very embodiment of Som Besths cheer!
Wow, hard to believe it’s over! I have a few MacBaren tins set aside for PMSS 2025! Where’s my match?
Mike, thank you so much for the hard work you put into this every year! I think the PMSS is the gift that keeps on giving. I have gotten a chance to "meet" and talk with some great guys over the years and I, for one, really think this is a fantastic service that you do for our community. I'm looking forward to PMSS 2025!! (only 9 more months to wait / recover!) 
Thanks for the lead. Here's the links for anyone else who's behind like I was:

There have been plenty of displays of great generosity throughout this thread by others; I don’t think I spoiled any of the Secret Santa recipients I’ve gotten so far. I’ve just been lucky enough that the members I’ve gotten have shared enough personal info in the forum to make it fun for me to find cool things to put in their boxes—last year, it was great fun for me to find the missing toys @PA Piper Mike wrote about—I knew he wouldn’t expect a blast from the past like that; and @cosmicfolklore has enough varied interests he’s written about that it kicked my hunter/gatherer gene into play to try to find stuff that would have meaning to him. It’s all in the Som Besths spirit that this forum exudes.
Dear Sirs,
I have not yet received my match for PMSS '25. Please advise.
Som Besths,
Some clown, no doubt
