In dramatic fashion Jon Duke slides into my PMs and delivers a Christmas Miracle of sorts.

He is on the list

So, in the wake of the Postal Strike is surferguy going to have to commandeer a Van and a Santa suit and drive around town delivering secret Santa gifts?

If I get someone not close enough to me to personally deliver, they are getting a Starbucks gift card by email, even if their survey says no coffee and no gift cards.

Depending on location I'm considering bribing a homeless vagrant with sandwiches to deliver the gifts. We might be able to get a group rate.

Maybe get one of our local cyclists to lend him a bike? And he can just throw presents at houses like those kids from Newsies?

Doug Fir would like to thank everybody who has signed up for this years edition of the CPSS for getting onboard. We have lots of returnees and several new faces which always makes it fun.

Our roster includes 23 community posters, making this the largest exchange yet! Not bad considering we started out with six members in our first year!

I am hoping to get to the draw by midday today but it may have to wait until late this evening before they are sent out.

See you in the PM folks!

I so hope you draw me so we can see you follow through and send them on a trip, on foot, in December to Toronto for hand delivery!

Doug Fir has a message!

The draw is complete and your information is now in your PMs!

If you have any questions let me know ASAP.

Please note: Monitor this thread for updates, as sometimes questions/notices will be directed at you. A simple thanks or answer denotes you've seen the message and helps your Santa. It is part of the courtesy I expect you give to your Santa.

Any questions I get backstage will be posted in here (if appropriate). Answers do not always need to be via PM back to me, if you are comfortable posting your response in the thread please do so. Obviously I understand if you wish to keep in PM. I get a lot of messages over the next few weeks so Ill do my best to stay on top of it.

All the best Santas - I hand it over to you now.


Be Warm - Be Kind

Doug Fir has a message for Maccalus!

Your Santa seems to be a super keener!

"Also let Macculus know that if he starts to receive packages from “Brown Santa” (aka Amazon, because everything comes in brown boxes) with his name as “(firstname)CPSanta(lastname)” he’ll know where it’s from. Things will likely start arriving this week."
