It's that time of year, when we do Secret Santa and since Nay hasn't got it started, I thought I would help her out (or just keep doing it, if she doesn't want to).

Any how, we normally have a $20 limit on the gift. You put your name into a drawing and are given a secret member to get a gift for. Gifts are sent out by December 1st (so they will arrive to everybody before Christmas day)t. We will take applications until November 30th.

Anybody wanting to do this please send me a PM with the title saying Secret Santa. I will need your real name and mailing address to pass on to the lucky person who gets you. You can either on here or on your PM tell us a bit about yourself and what sorts of gifts you might like.

For instance I might say: I may love to look at pretty things, but live in a house filled with dogs and cats, so those things are having to be hidden away and not enjoyed. With me your best bet is to remember I live outside during the warm months, so something for my yard/tortoise enclosures is always loved and enjoyed.

So who wants to do a Secret Santa this year?

This is a really neat and interactive thing for forum members to do! This is my first time being a member of this forum during the "holiday season" and I'm surprised by all the things you guys do that are this personal, it's great.

Duh, guess my mind was still under the nice warm blankets sleeping, when I thought these dates out huh???? Let's change that to try to get the gifts to go out the first week of December.

You have to be joking, right???? ME and the word good together???? :D :D :D :D I have too much passion and have too much fun to be "good". That's why Santa never brought me the horse I asked for year after year. :( I doubt there will be a baby tortoise this year either. :( :(

If Santa could bring you a tortoise, what type would it be?

Ah, I feel all depressed now. Would've loved to do this lol

Your allowed to join in with us if you want. You could either do it with one of us in the USA (more cost and longer mail time, but otherwise the same) or you could hope we get more from your area... we have in the past).

That's the problem, would be really expensive to mail anything. If you could get a group of us lot from the UK interested you could do a sub-section for us lot. Could probably do the same for the Canadians on the forum as well.

In the past we have done just an UK group, but if my memory serves we also had a few who sent overseas. I can't recall us ever having interest from Canada, but yes this is not just for the USA.
