Not that I'm a loser but I couldn't even see my card in the video :bigcry: :laugh3:

Oh Carla! I've missed your posts - this was the funniest thing I've read all week! :laugh3: Amongst all the angst and negativity, you manage to bring a bit of Chris & Jonny love in to it :D

Who was he? And has anyone asked the Oracle? Funny how things develop on this board sometimes, we're days away from a new release from our favourite band and here we all are obsessed by some dude in the back of the video :laugh3:

Well, just to throw a name in there for the mystery Elvis, there's a guy who goes by the name @real_banksy on Twitter who posted on Thursday night about shooting a music video and being on the Thames. Doubt Banksy would have a twitter, and it's certainly not a verified account, still... :thinking:

I thought that when I saw one of the photos from the paper. Maybe it is a relative?

I think right now they probably want to be left alone to get on with the album. Sending presents after some of the comments and stuff that's gone on might seem a bit disingenuous. The postcards thing worked because it was our creative response to their own creation - not just a way of trying to mend fences. Lets see what LP 5 brings and then do something...

Well I feel about 64 at the moment... need a Saturday afternoon nap :p

Yeah, I understood what you meant, but some people are now talking about Coldplay tickets as Christmas presents - I really don't see that happening If they're doing summer festivals then they're obviously going to have a show ready to take out on the road, and stadia/arenas must have to be booked well in advance. I just think those people who are now assuming the tickets will be on sale to buy/have bought as Christmas presents are going to be disappointed

Sorry! But if anyone has to drop out, we'll get in touch and you can be a substitute Santa

I really think this is a red-herring guys. Phil told someone there is still a lot of work to be done on the album - they won't be making tour dates public yet

I'm 34, and I know of quite a few people our age or older here :)

End of November... think those "card sent" PM's will start flying in soon. Remember everyone, we're aiming for everyone to recieve their card by December 15th. I think we've got 4 or 5 cards currently making their way across the world at the moment...

Well, thanks to coldplay and there little boat trip, one Secret Santa delivered their card in person! As Lore said, tell your elf when your card is on it's way.... and when you recieve your card, maybe you could post a picture here? :elf:

Only once... it was an album called X&Y :P

Do you not think they just want to keep the video details quiet until it's finished? Wouldn't you rather see the final product and then hear peoples stories. I really don't understand what everyone's getting so upset about :confused:

I hope you notified your elf :P

Just a little plea from the elves... Please don't change your username during the project or we'll get confused about who's who (Well, I will because I'm not very bright :embarrassed: , Lore is a far superior elf :D) Also, remember to confirm to your elf when you have sent your card, do not tell your match Thank you :elf:

We have a couple of really funny trailers that were made especially for the UK [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UPw17AXriLs]YouTube - Modern Family UK Promo[/ame] I'm watching an ep from Season 1 right now - the one where Phil challenges Claire to a race :lol:

We reckon it'll be at the Uni

At the weekend they showed the one where Manny & Luke get in to a fight because Manny insists on calling Luke his nephew :laugh3:

Hopefully it'll run for a while. It did well at The Emmy's so that should see it safe for a while. Don't know what the ratings are like over in the States. It's on a satellite channel here, but it gets well promoted

And how funny was the Emmy skit??? [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5BE9MaGCjs8]YouTube - 2010 Emmy - Modern Family Skit[/ame]

The elves take Secret Santa very seriously, but even we wouldn't advocate making cards before doing revision. You need good grades, guys, or you'll end up stuck in Santa's workshop making toys for the rest of your lives :P :elf:

One of my favourite episodes yet over here tonight with Cam trying to "reunite" an old couple and Mitchell joining a Flashmob :lol: And Clare & Phil racing each other to the restaurant :laugh3: And how sweet is little Luke??? He doesn't say much, but when he does talk, he's usually utterly hilarious or heartbreakingly cute! :heart:

I reckon it'll be 4pm at the latest and they're just saying that so people don't start freaking out at 2.01pm Good luck to everyone with bids in, fingers crossed that the Coldplaying karma is with you!
