Hey Ladies,

I've just seen this on my lurking in BT and thought maybe we could do something similar. (thanks Maisey)

Although they are buying for their children, we could buy for each other, just something really silly.

If people are up for it, i would be willing to arrange it all.

Once everyone has said if they'd like to be involved, i put all the names in a hat and pick at random. Then i'd let each person know who they'd got and where to send the gift too before christmas.

The only downside i can think of is you'd have to share your address with me (i promise i won't stalk) and then be happy for me to share it with whoever is your secret santa.

So if people would lke a go then say below and also how much they'd be willing to spend (not forgetting P&P for the gift to be sent)

xx?xx

UPDATE

Ok Ladies so we have more then enough people to make this work.

So it's information time!

If you can all send me your Hitched name, your real name and the address you'd like your present sent too. Also if you'd like fill in the questionaire on page 4 so your secret santa gets more of an idea what you like then send that too.

As the hitched emails don't always work i will put my email address up for a while, once i think everyone has seen it i'll take it down. ***********@*******.**.**

xx

    Oooh - yeah, this sounds like it could be fun ...

    Not sure my HIB'ism would be much use in this - can't imagine a couple of invitations would be much use to anyone!!

    Hmmm - I'm thinking sparkly things ...

    Yeah, count me in!

    How much notice will we get of who our present receipient is?

    Shall we keep bumping over the weekend so everyone gets the chance to see it. Then I'll start collecting names and address so it'll probably be middle-end of October. How does that sound? X

    It would be a bespoke set grace- I might even look into pasta wedding jewellery. Watch out jewellery hibs! I'd make sure it was organic wholegrain pasta an' everyfink.

    3 What are your favourite shops?

    4 Do you have any hobbies?

    5 Is there anything you are avoiding, or allergic to, that your secret santa needs to know about?

    HTH xx
    6 Worst gift imaginable?

    7 Best gift imaginable?

    8 Favourite colour?

    9 Favourite type of chocolate (brand etc)?

    Count me in too.

    Might be best to do this quite early and not leave it too close to Xmas because of the postal system getting clogged??
