Do you decorate for Christmas? What colours do you use and what style (if any) do you like?

I do... Silver and blue mainly but I like any colour , I really like snowmen

When you shop, what are your favourite things to shop for?

Ahem...

I'll take the booze then!

;)

I am unsure what to get mine. :\

Booze. It's the universal Secret Santa cure-all.

I'm not a booze giver type. :lol:

I have an idea, but we'll see.

Hi Arabella,

I'm sorry, you did miss out this year :(

I posted the email address to send your info to and I did pm you yesterday with the email info again, so when I didn't hear from you I thought you had decided you didn't want to do it after all.

I didn't hear back from a few other people, but if someone else missed out maybe you two could be a secret santa to each other?

Morning all...

I think I'm going to tell my Secret Santa friend my name! I thought it was only secret at the beginning and then once everyone is all christmas-ed up, then we can flood the boards with thanks and hilarity...

perhaps I am naive.

Arabella - I do have a secret santa for you - I will pm you :)

Yes, it is all supposed to be secret, but basically last year all the cats were let out of the bag because of return addresses and also people guessing as someone would say - ohhh I mailed mine today and another person would guess from that - it was good.

We also, well most of us, chose a day and posted pictures of our gifts
