Please let us know here *if you are still waiting for your parcel, or for confirmation that what you sent has been delivered*
@mod if you could sticky this, that would be helpful
If nobody has said we need to wait after a week or so, then all will be revealed....

It's a bit like the gene pool getting smaller :-D - no real surprises any more, but it's still fun! Just the waiting to find out where it's come from and the anticipation of opening on xmas day.
Thanks again Sprite. The watermelon sweets were/are a hit (I'm there are some left when I get back home after this stint in the city).

lol exactly wombat - like do we really need a big Reveal! thread when we all know who the person was anyway. But more importantly, thank you (again) tucano, and thank you Elf for organizing it. I particularly adore the capybara notepad. pero drew a little bird sitting on one of the capybaras, as birds often do with capybaras, so I taped it to the wall. |

Thanks Kneazle! I have not told partner exactly how much chocolate was in that packet. But I was able to take one of the lovely Wellington bars to a friend's for dinner--they asked us to bring either wine or chocolate, and as I didn't want to lug a glass bottle on a 25 minute walk, NZ chocolate was on! Everyone loved it.

Everyone loved it. I'm glad you liked them - I always send Whittakers chocolate with overseas parcels! I'm also amazed at how well the reusable coffee cup worked out! weeg thanks so much for my box of goodies! I'm working my way through the biscuits and I especially love the tea towel |

Santaslittlehelper I don't know about others, but it wouldn't bother me if I had someone I've had before, although if I was the giver, I might not remember whether I'd sent something before! (then again, maybe they wouldn't remember receiving it either - we are all getting older hehe)

Yes, I always try to get something for Secret Santa while I'm on holiday, so it'll be different every year. That didn't work out so well this year, harrumph.  |

Huge thanks to Hal for my aussie goodies. I particularly loved that it was indigenous based things based - and you can never have too many tote bags (no matter what Himself thinks!)
