Mine was extremely well packed.

And yeah, my mum totally understands GRcade (although she gets the name wrong a lot), because she's into virtual worlds and is a creator there.

I just say it's from my club, grcade, my online community etc., the games club etc. Most people get the idea of a secret santa in general.

But I'll probably open it in the morning in my room because my family can't really afford presents, least of all my granny who yesterday asked "are you both twins" and "are you all architects?". I think grcade would be hard to explain. I'm not sure she ever quite understood what the Internet was.

I never participate in these because I can't be trusted (KarlVesp :x ) but I love reading & following them. One of the best parts of GRcade IMO.

Hope you lovely fellas all have a great Christmas. :wub:

Me, but I was given a forewarning that it was going to be late due to exceptional circumstances so I don't mind waiting

I've left my packages piling up all week, so I've only just finished opened them all, but I can confirm that I've received m presents from my Secret Santa. Your identity remains a secret as my sister checked all the Amazon boxes before I did so that she could any tags.

I'm excited :toot:

No midnight openings. I'll post in the morning to get me out of bed. :cool:

Oh and merry Xmas :toot:

I usually open at midnight, but since I'm on my own this year I thought I'd open it in the morning this time :lol:

See y'all in the morning! :toot:

Merry Christmas all. :wub:

I've been a bit shortsighted this year - I don't have my present but it's not (necessarily?) my secret santa's fault. It hadn't arrived as of early Friday morning but I left for work that morning and went from there back up north to be with the fam over Xmas so I shan't be back to my regular (and postal)address until the new year. Sorry! I hope my santa, whomever they are, doesn't mind a delayed reaction reveal.

Hope that all the GR family have a wonderful xmas with their nearest and dearest and all the absolute best for 2017 :toot:

I ordered something for my brother 1st class on Tuesday that hadn't shown up by Saturday either, so sadly it looks like RM haven't held up their standards this year. :(

I'm not saying my gift hadn't shown up - deliveries to our place generally get posted through during the day, not first thing in the morning. So it might be that my present arrived yesterday - the issue is, I wasn't there to receive it (nor was anyone else as I was the last one out for Xmas). Hopefully I'll get a message from my housemate telling me there's a delivery waiting for me when they get back a few days after Xmas and I can open it in the new year :mrgreen:

Merry Christmas GRcadians :toot:

Dying to open my presents but I'm too strawberry floated to after waiting for everyone to go to bed so I can lump everything from upstairs to the living room to 'set up'.

My daughter better love that bastard kitchen I've just had to set up as I've done my back in carrying that and everything else downstairs :cry: and now to wash the bloody dishes before bed :fp:

Merry Christmas everyone!!

Looks like I'm the first to open mine or at least post about it in this thread, is this the right thread to reveal presents?

Anyway on to my present, my SS sure did love cello tape the parcel was covered in it lol but inside was a giant ferrero rocher and a Liverpool stationary set which is awesome but inside the pencil case blow my mind for a SS gift in fact it's probably the best gift I received it's called the anfield experience and it's a day where you your anfield with a legend, have a three course meal with them get autographs and just listen to them telling stories, that is an incredible gift and thank you very much to my SS

That's lucky, I think I'll just pop down to the post office after breakfast, then.

Holy strawberry floating shitballs! Wow! My santa is a an absolute legend. Honestly I had tears when I saw how kind and generous you have been. Pictures to follow once construction is complete. You smashed it out of the park my friend.
