The sort of wizard that has giant eagles on hand but doesn't use them?

I wasnt actually aware of this, hopefully the post office keep hold of it - I believe they only do so for 7 days so you might be cutting it close

I think Royal Mail hold things for 18 days before returning to sender.

I think it's a couple of weeks. I'll call the sorting office either tomorrow or Monday and let them know, see if they can put a hold on it.

I'm really sorry this has screwed you over, especially as you've been unwell. I had a horrible feeling this had happened because I said I'd gone away about two posts below you saying you'd gone special delivery :fp:

Glad you like them - I got the mug as it suited your gaming taste then rooted back further and found a load of posts saying you didn't like tea and coffee, but I saw you liked hot chocolate and thought it would still work. Nice hot chocolate (the chunk/button kind) is apparently bloody impossible to find, I was one failed shop visit away from hitting a bar of Green and Blacks with a hammer...

You were going to get some film merch because all your recent posts are in that sodding Eliminator thread :x :slol: I'm a big Cornetto Trilogy fan as well so I thought I'd plump for that.

The Star Trek models are the same ones a friend got me a couple of years ago from a sci-fi convention, I thought were really nice little builds with some clever design. There's obviously a dearth of official Star Trek Lego because of the licensing so it's a more unusual set I thought you might not have.

I just finished reading through the rest of this thread. I don't participate in this any more as I get massively stressed out about picking out a gift, but I really do enjoy reading through everyone opening their presents. It wouldn't be Christmas without GRcade Secret Santa.

Well done all. :wub:

fwiw I take a lot of missed delivery notes from RM and I think it's one of 18, 21 or 28 days depending on whatever year that memory is based on. It's definitely not only 1 or 2 weeks.

Here's a couple of "making of" photos :D

Cora, could you post some photos of the calendar I sent you? I didn’t take any myself and could do with a laugh remembering the awfulness that I sent to you. :lol:
