I had to work on Christmas Eve, and it was dark by the time I got home. (who the hell gets their oil changed at 5:30 pm on Christmas Eve???) Anyhow, I didn't see this package as I walked up to my house until I opened the screen door! Woo hoo!!

I opened it on Christmas Day and SonofV was the photographer of record. Here are his results.

I must say, zippyt, your intelligence is unmatched. I have no interest whatsoever in discovering and expelling the mole you clearly have embedded in my organization. These are *perfect*. Thank you, thank you. After a little quality time to chill out (in the freezer), I enjoyed a Christmas Bourbon in your honor. Cheers!

A brief word as to the delay in posting these pictures. The external hard drive on which I store almost all of my pictures had a scary but thankfully non-fatal failure on Christmas Day. When I tried to launch Picasa, the organizational tool I use for the hundreds of thousands of pictures I have, my computer responded "Drive P: is not formatted. Do you want to format it now?"

NONONONONONOnonononononononono thank you very very much. I was able to resuscitate the drive with an eask chkdsk /f, but one of the casualties was the index file for Picasa. :sadface: Only this morning has Picasa returned to full functionality. The named faces part of the library took the biggest hit; I now have over 47,000 unnamed faces left to identify.

The decorations went right onto the tree and he is hiding the goodies from the rest of us for his own personal consumption.

I've only just seen this and am so glad the parcel didn't get lost for too long by the assorted postal services. I tried to pack enough chocolate critters so that everyone in your family could have one! Naughty Dan!

Does my recipient like my gift?????? That's what I'm wondering.

Today I got a really Really useful gift of a wind-up torch/lantern/phone charger from the lovely Lola Bunny! We get power cuts in the winter, and it'll also be useful at our summer music camps. Thanks SO much!

You're welcome. Glad it's useful.

OK, it came a few days ago, but I've been on a few deadlines...

Thank you so much Santa Clods

We love it.

oh ha, glad it made it

The beads have been sat on my desk for several months now waiting to be strung and mailed

I ended up having Banana Lady take the parcel and mail it when she got back to give me a deadline for getting the damn project finished. They were made just for you, there are no others like them

(yet.....

)

Clodfobble · 01-10-2015, 04:25 PM

Awesome!

limey · 01-10-2015, 04:42 PM

I suspected banana lady's involvement as this was clearly posted in UK. Thanks again! Will turn the pic round when I get to a PC.

I have to confess that I am Buster's SS and I still haven't sent a gift. I have not forgotten you though Buster, and I have a plan to send your gift soon.
