*** OcUK Secret Santa Unwrap Thread 2022 ***

It's Chriiiiiiiiiissttmmaasssssssssss!

Welcome all to the OcUK Secret Santa Unwrap Thread 2022,

Remember you have to post a picture of your gift in this thread by New Years Day!

*** Please don't use spoiler tags for the pictures. it makes the thread easier to moderate ***

The Draw - this will be shown this year as I took too long flip-flopping between if I was going to do it or not, and
the majority had posted their gifts with hints to the sender. Next year they will be kept secret!

:cool: next to the receiver = pic posted

Do not reveal the spoiler until you have checked your gift!

I do need to go over the list of names ST to match up your forum name using a process of elimination sorry - meant to do this earlier today but I had a last minute invite to the pub and I'm way too drunk to go through it now - 'tis the season and all that!

We did unfortunately have a casualty to the postal system this year - @beany_bot we've spoken already but keep an eye out over the next week to see if it arrives. *shakes fist at Evri*

Also I'd just like to say thank you to cainer who did help out with my daft questions in the background from time to time. Thanks for the help :D

Happy Christmas everyone - get posting those pics!

On another note, I really enjoyed this this year, my first time both running and participating in this and after the initial shock factor of “omg this is actually a reasonable amount of effort to run” it really made me appreciate the amazing community we have here. Technically we’re all strangers but I think we all know and appreciate we have a special community here and things like this just affirm that fact, so huge props to you all that make the place what it is! Here’s to next year - can we aim for 50 or even a 100 participants?! Let’s do this!

A very busy day of entertaining family means I’ve only just gotten round to posting after opening this morning. Some fantastic gifts here so thank you Santa! I love the coasters and the annual will keep me entertained over the break.

I assume the cat poison is slow release as he’s still up and about this evening but I’m sure it’ll kick in soon.

Merry Christmas everyone!

Oh I want that private eye album for myself! Ace, read it and send it on :cry:
 
I was a bit keen with ripping it open and forgot to take a pic of the box, so it's half demolished.

Absolutely well chuffed with mine, some good stalking there @BDEE :cry:

Going to make a start on the Turkish Delight tonight and Lego is just awesome in any form, especially when it's a new Supra!

The cat will be stoned off her norks whilst I'm eating and building. Top man, thanks again!
 
That will be me. I found an old post of yours about the Kinder bars and you expressed the same sentiment there so they were a must. The curing kit...well I found a couple of posts about very nicely cooked beef and figured it was worth a shot as you seem to be a fan of nice meat! :)
Brilliant, thanks for confirming - it was driving me mad :D

Just @bledd, @ShivP, @LeeUK, @Russinating and @Diddums to post theirs now, but Diddums is away for a bit still I think.

Haha, good on you. I was actually thinking about this yesterday, I was going to send him a couple of OcUK goodies as a replacement. Are you going to get your money back though @LewisRaz? I don't want you being out of pocket.
 
Hah, brilliant! That completes the set… just a few months of good weather to get out of the way and we can go again.
