Show us your minor Holiday booty, which was more appreciated than what others thought significant. Your sleepers. The things you really wanted, but perhaps reluctantly requested.
Will lead off…
It came packaged as a donor eyeball or heart, but wasn’t escorted.
I love the stocking goodies. The boys are getting Haribo Coca-Cola gummies, some little soccer ball thingies that are supposed to make your shoes not stink, and Biscoff cookies among some other things. I might stick a high-rent gift in there too…like Airpods or something…so they’d be surprised at that.
My wife says I’m impossible to shop for…because generally if I want something, I get it for myself.
That said…my Mom sent an early present that arrived yesterday. I had to call around to see who sent it because it seemed like such a perfect gift for me…but curiously wouldn’t have guessed anyone would have thought to get it for me…
So this company obviously needs to attend recurrent @Troll Packaging and Protection for Shipping class… Sucks…the more intact one still has chips on the base… No padding at all except those cardboard collars…
The last item on the agenda for the 2020 Mudspike Arctic Christmas Conference was exchanging christmas presents. The Norwegian-American delegation, represented by Mr. and Mrs. @Hangar200, presented the Swedish-Norwegian delegation with a bag of gifts and a couple of stickers, very much in line with their old culture of stocking stuffers.
I had the pleasure of representing my delegation and accepted the gifts with a mix of pride and curiosity.
The stickers are now attached to prominent areas of the inside walls of the SimBox.
I don’t know why, but I thought the USN sticker would be perfect in close proximity to the beverage holder…
I am obscenely angry with both the British Post office and the Dutch postal service.
I attempted a similar thing with @schurem and the post office have completely cocked it up.
Now I have to claim it back and re order it. Sods.
Merry Christmas
