Coldplaying Christmas 2009: Secret Santa - Post a pic if you already received a card :D

Featured Replies

Their mere presence will top anything!!! :D

 

Now, for all of those who are waiting, I know it's hard, but just be patient, good things come to those who wait...especially when you least expect it! Believe me, I was in the same boat as all of you just a couple of days ago.

 

Today, I went to check my school mailbox upon returning from the holidays. I was surprised to discover that I had a package waiting for me, let alone from France. Turns out that my secret santa (the person I sent a card out to), vitaamine, decided to return to gesture and surprised me with a lovely package! I can't begin to describe how wonderfully surprised I am, and the gratitude I feel. Here are the pics:

I'm definately going to cherish that shirt FOREVER!!!

 

A big thanks must be given to Lore and Alison! Slowly reuniting Coldplayers around the world, one card at a time! :hug:

 

 

Oh Wow, great package!! So lovely :heart:

Well, I guess that Vitaamine must have seen that you are a huge Guy fan :D

.. and you are so right about Lore and Alison.. Good words for their work :D

Nice phrase - you should have it in your sig, Lore! :nice:

 

it's a nice phrase, I think it could be in the sig of Santa Claus' account :wacky:

Well...I am an OFFICIAL (self-proclaimed) BERRYgirl :laugh3:

Elvs, how do you think, can we already contact with our pair? I mean those of us who don’t get card until now.

If this can be of some kind of consolation to you who have NOT YET received your Christmas cards from your Secret Santa:

 

Yesterday I received my Christmas card from a grandcousin in the USA (the New York area), and the postmark said 12 December 2009. Normally it would only take the card a week to arrive in Denmark (like the other years), but this year I did not receive it until the 6 January. I know that there has been a snow storm in the area and a terror threat against an airplane that might explain the delay.

 

So please don't give up hope. There is STILL HOPE of you receiving your Christmas cards from your Secret Santa.

I'm still waiting for the card...

oh, British Coldplayers, have you already got some AROBTTH stamps? :nice:

I'm not a Brit, but I just bought some online at the Royal Mail website... :dance:

Still nothing. Lore, what does my Santa say about it?

I've just received my card :dance: Thank you so much, Emily!!

The registration took a little longer than usual, because I kind of had to "trick" it into displaying my address properly. Even though the registration allows for any country to purchase, the address fields are only geared toward the format of British/U.K. addresses. Instead of putting my house number on the street field, I had to put it in the property number field. And since there was no place to put which State I was in, I had to put it in the same field as my city. Plus I had to adjust the format of my phone number. But I eventually got through okay. There was also a step at the end where they had to verify my credit card (Verified By Visa), but since I had done that previously on another site, I already had that info set up.

So, you might have to do a little trial-and-error to get things to display properly, but you can get through okay. ;)

Ok....so finally I will go to my local fedex station today and pick up my card there....since I could see where the card was sent from and Iz told me she knows who my secret santa is and she isn't in the list of secret santas I think I know who this card is from...:wacky:

How lovely - the beautiful ring, Santa Chris and the card. Glad that you finally received your card, but it was worth waiting for. Very lovely, indeed.
