thanks for doing this and will be fun and always enjoying seeing what people get

reading someone else's post made me realise I didn't give too much in the way of hints, sorry for who ever is stuck with me, so I added a story - not sure if it helps or if can be seen as looks like it has to be reviewed by admin

great to join in the fun

that is just wrong, funny, but wrong

I haven't heard about - find the pickle in Australia?

Is it something that is hidden in the tree on Christmas eve for the kids to find in the morning - please share - sounds like fun for the kids

nearly got all the gear for my person - tough one as well, had to be creative and was hoping for a shirt size and no luck

I bought a AC/DC aussie collector coin before the secret santa but my person has no interest in music pins so will give to some one else soon

also bought a pickle for the tree for the kids to hunt - may the tradition start

that is a awesome gift - congrats

and has to be said very generous of the gift giver.

as for me in the land down-under (I think the only southern hemisphere person) I have ordered my parts and now waiting for delivery which will be close call to then send out for Christmas for the receiver. Everything else is ready, package is ready, just need one more thing.

this looks real cool, will check out as would be fun to try stuff from all over the world - thanks for sharing

both my parents are dutch but I was born in Aus, so we enjoy the dutch treats and I order from dutch expats a few times a year to get my fix

nice score on the banner - that is an awesome gift

I just sent off my package to my pinsider - it will be a tight delivery for Christmas - the bugger being downunder

curious on the pinsider list Secret Santa and Secret Santa 2 - they don't come up in the search - feel for the people that have to buy for them

wow, awesome gifts and super generous SS

I think I am the only aussie and was paired with a person in the northern hemisphere. Postage for me was over $55 but it has been a crazy year and everyone deserves some cheer - so what the hell - I feel sorry for the person who got me......

I was surprised to see my gift arrive today.... thought given I was down under it would be a bit longer.

I was going to wait when the tree went up this weekend to open but I could not resist and thought I would at least crack open the box thinking I might see a gift wrapped item to put on the shelf to tease me but they just stared at me amongst bubble wrap so enjoyed.

Thanks for your generosity SS, love them, got:
- London Pinball T-shirt - can never have enough t-shirts
- a Pinball Monk keyring - very cool
- Black flipper bands
- GB Walking mod

Merry Christmas to you SS and everyone else - now I can watch and enjoy everyone else open there gifts

that is amazing, what a piece of art

I have received my gift but keep checking the tracking of my SS gift to my pinsider, as it has been in the air and mail centres for a while (3 1/2 weeks) and finally on the move again with about 60km to go - here's hoping it gets to them before Christmas.
