The (Un)Official Secret Santa 2019!

I mean that's fine I suppose.. I thought part of it was revealing the santas?

I have no expectations either way. It's not covered in the rules, so my take is it's optional.

 

[BROBS]

ok.. all good! Apparently this santa wishes to remain secret!

 

[shanez]

so I still don't know the identity of my secret santa...... ?

Hence the term "secret". ?

I don't see that it must remain secret but I also don't see the need to purposely reveal it. I like a good mystery.

I guess I thought I read about revealing the santas but I'm not looking through 53 pages for something I thought I read

I hope you all had a Merry Christmas and I wish you all a Happy New Years! It is awesome that the forum has came together to do this for so many years. I look forward to participating next year.

My Santa arrived last night! Very excited about these blends I haven’t had a chance to try either of them, and they’ve both been on my list! The red flake already has some age on it! Thank you Santa!

If you have not received your package by tomorrow's post, please contact me.​

Wouldn't that just take all of the "secret" out of it?

It’s a secret before you open it? When we’ve done secret Santa at work in the end everyone finds out who.

It's up to the Secret ? to divulge their identity, if they so choose to do so. I will honestly tell you that it wasn't me.??
Edit: for spell decker

It’s fine I’d just like to thank the person myself rather than a general post in the thread. No biggie!

My recipient last year never checked back in but I am good with that. Hopefully he is ok.

Oh this is awkward, but both your secret Santa matches moved addresses, so you should probably both resend your packages to me and I will make sure they get them.

Where am I going to find another 50 year old tin of Three Nuns?

 

[woodsroad]

I really should track their ungrateful asses down and ban them, but I’m so f’n full of the seasonal spirit that I just find better things to do.

My secret Santa blew me away with a beautifully grained Ben Wade Unicorn Fawn that accompanied the 2 tins he sent me! This photo does not do it justice and this desk pipe is fantastic for reading and writing. It has a massive bowl and I forsee many long writing sessions with it sitting by my pen and paper. I cannot thank him enough. This pipe is magnificent.

well thank goodness for tender mercies. Any idea of how long this spirit will last?
