Secret Santa?

[farrellgirl99]

came home today to a package from australia! as i wasnt expecting anything from the land down under, i had a sinking suspicion this was my secret santa!



ooh looks like an awesome haul (please ignore/enjoy my dachshund bedsheets )



spoiler: it was an awesome haul. three regurgitator cds which i cant wait to check out, a book from a famous Australian author bryce courtenay, vegemite and tim tams which i have a heard a lot about and havent tried yet, a boomerang, and koala keychains. also an awesome and sweet card that reminded me why i like janes addiction



adorable koala keychains



a fucking awesome boomerang!



ahhh! its so cool.

thank you, nausearockpig for the amazing gifts! i feel like an honorary australian now, i hope youll have me! thank you for the perfect cap to my christmas weekend

[nausearockpig]

Hey glad they arrived eventually, again, sorry the package was late but stuff and things happened......

I hope you enjoy it all. Go easy on the Vegemite, just a light scraping on toast with butter or marg..

You're def an honorary Aussie now, just go round saying "mate" and "cunt" and you'll be sweet.

For example: when you approach your friend at the cafe or library you would say "g'day mate, how are ya cunt?" - this means "hello friend, how are you esteemed one?"
Or if you see someone you don't like when you're with your friend a the pottery store or Walmart (that's where you all shop isn't it?? lol) you would say "Check that cunt out, who does s/he think s/he is? S/he's got tickets on him/herself" - this means "Friend, look at that person over there. Who do they think they are? They have a high opinion of themselves do they not?"

Remember when saying all this, move your lips / mouth as little as possible...

Also.. jesus... This is actually true...

Now this is not Hoka posting pics........

Here are my pics from my Secret Santa from Belgium:

First of all the package:



Lets have a look inside...oh a lot of paper, a candle and two cds



'Great, a bottle of belgium beer....hmm not for me i think....i am only 17 I'll give it to my mom



So after diving through all the paper we found a lot of nice stuff, like a beautiful yellow fleece plaid, belgium Leonidas pralines (i love that cause all the Leonidas shops here in Düsseldorf are closed), other very sweet sugary marshmellows, a yellow candle which illuminates the kitchen table now and 2 cds of belgium bands deus and Kapitan Korsakov. I listened to K. Korsakov already and i really dig it. I'll have to check out deus..and let you know man. Anyway new music is always good.




Oh and it had a lovely written card with a lot of text which was a great pleasure to read.

So thanks a lot my belgium friend, that was and of course still is one great Secret Santa for me.

Nice presents - and a handsome young man!

[nausearockpig]

Looks like someone had a great time unboxing!

Great stuff, great gifts....

[Artemis]

Awesome! Love the pics with you and your son,Warped!

[farrellgirl99]

Awesome pics!

So, can we form a mutiny against Hoka or is that against the holiday spirit?

Just a quick note to my Secret Santa that I received the package yesterday (NYE!), love the goodies and will post pics when things settle down (along with my hangover) over the next day or so.

My 2nd of 2 Secret Santa packages arrived from the UK via Bandit72 on New Years Eve. Here's what's included:

- Big white tapestry detailing the origins and lineups of key British Heavy Metal/Hard Rock bands.
- "Little Black Book of Setlists" from key rock shows over the past 50 years.
- "The Periodic Table of Heavy Metal" book that breaks down everyone from Led Zep to Nirvana(!) in an elaborate guide from lightest to heaviest "elements." Yes, Janes is included (Transitional Metals).
- A packet of postcards featured old school Brit metal bands.
- A box of "Marmite" chocolate truffles. Apparently, some contain Marmite, some don't. Never heard of Marmit before, so this'll be interesting.
- Nice Christmas card made by Bandit's li'l daughter. Very sweet.

Along with the Birmingham shirt, a *VERY* cool package from the UK. Dual Devil Horn salute to you, Bandit72!

[Bandit72]

Great! I'm glad you like everything. Marmite is the UK equivalent to the Australian 'Vegemite'. Which Nausea hates. I love it on toast but never had it with chocolate! It's a yeast extract and has a very strong flavour. I had also sent you some Trooper beer with a commemorative glass but the fuckers returned it! I blame a Trump

It's actually a very nice beer.

[Artemis]

Very cool gifts, Bandits!

[blackcoffee]

Such thoughtful gifts, Bandit. Well done.

[chaos]

Great gifts Bandit/Panda!

So I guess LarryB and Blackula haven't their received gifts yet.

And Hoka . . . .
