This morning, I recieved what looked like a blank email from the gaffer, @mikethompson . Forwarded it onto to the bright eyed boffins at Greenwich Observatory. With the help of the worlds most powerful lens, they were able to see the name & address of my match & pass on his details back to me.

I am now ‘on the case’.👍
You guys complain about the small print, but if I emailed you in 198pt font like I had originally planned, you'd be complaining it was too large.

There's no pleasing you animals - which I suppose is part of your charm.

Merry Christmas to you all, every one.

How about when your secret santa doesn't give any information about what they like? Ha I guess the options are wide open.
IMO (and I was vague when specifying my preferences) they get what they get. It is an adventure. I haven't smoked enough to have strong preference. Send something good and hopefully everything will be fine.
Gift giving is always a tricky business.

Yes, that’s the same basic category that includes Haunted Bookshop.

By the way, my match is a true enigma. Most of their posts are just welcomes and being nice to people. Not sure how they got in with this group.
I’ve never tried “Haunted Bookshop”, but after all the talk about it, I just have to try it….any suggestions as to should I try a tin or bulk?

If you just want to try it, the cheapest way would be an ounce of bulk. I’ve never tried it in the tin, but I do enjoy the bulk version.

Someone advised me to get small quantities of bulk tobacco at SP. I tried bookshop that way. Cheap way to experiment with stuff that is available in bulk.

I was not prepared for such quick shipments! Well done those of you who have already got packages on their way / being sent out.
