I received two sets of gifts when I returned from vacation
From an unknown gifter
NW-the first 80 years
CA 774 model, which is now sitting on my desk next to my laptop
and a package from Brenda
ETA: I also found the amazon gift card in my mailbox at work!
Thanks so much!
Unfortunately this means I'm one santa short, as this is only 5 of 6.
Also, if a Santa sent me any e-mails, I most likely didn't get them as I was on vacation and my spam box auto-erases periodically. If you did send me something via e-mail, please let me know!

Chief Santa wants to publicly thank Evanderm for the two rum cakes I received yesterday.
My partner took ownership of both of them....
He finished one off last night... and took the second one to work this morning.
I wonder how Evanderm got my mailing address? Have you been up to no-good again Head Elf?

Have you been up to no-good again Head Elf? Please tell him to be careful at work, they actually are doused in rum after baking so there is alcohol content in them.

If anyone remembers this movie from the late 60's - early 70's A Guide for the Married Man, then you'll remember this quote Deny Deny Deny.
http://www.kgbanswers.co.uk/what-fil...e-from/3398923 It's a reference to a wife walking in on her husband while he's having an affair. He calmly gets dressed as he denies what she's seeing.
Santa, the HeadElf asked me to convey the above message to you.

In Newport Beach, the phrase got changed to "heels against the bar, deny, deny, deny ..." and I know someone who has the same Aug 21 bday!

Has anyone out there ever not acknowledged a gift? Would you be willing to post why? I always assumed it meant that it wasn't liked, but there may be other reasons. wharvey has stated, "non responses will get closed as gifts all received," so some may never know if their gifts were indeed received or just disliked or not acknowledged for some other reason?

Heck, people will not even respond to me... made it clear I need a PM when shipping and receiving... and then provide no detail if they do respond.... I am certain my workload on this project is five-fold more than it should be just by non-responses.
And, add onto that the number of e-certificates that get deleted/sent to SPAM (up to 27 so far this year) that have only been "found" or resent after I intervened.

I participate every year (this was my 7th year) to try to bring a little joy to the season for my fellow FTer's but I also don't want to stress about it.
My other 5 giftees posted to this thread and all liked their gifts - so that makes me happy.
Already looking forward to 2015 FT Secret Santa - but I do wish people would follow Wharvry's rules to make it easier on him. Wharvey is a great asset to this community.

This year, I had my first non-US recipient, and there was mention about wanting a gift card, so I sent one, as it avoided any fees for the recipient, and was what they wanted.

Hello everyone,
I have just returned from vacation. I have received a few gifts, and will post photos and an update soon. Namely:
Received a book on London Heathrow Terminal 5
Received a BA 747 Replica Model
Received some nice bottles of Rioja
Thank you to my santas.
I believe a few items/gifts have gone missing, which is a shame.
