How could I possibly refuse? I've been debating not banning Santa for a while, so I'd love to act as him.

Bad tempered and disagreeable I may be, but at least I'm not a grinch. Christmas is the one time of the year I feel genuinely benevolent, so I'll participate.

I should have read the OP more closely.

So sign me up, though receiving on real Julian Calendar Christmas; however, I'm happy to supply a message to deliver on heretical schismatic Gregorian Calendar Christmas.

I'll be signing up.

Also, if you're still looking for elves, I'm always up earlier than everyone else at Christmas, due to the fact their's a hell of a lot of people sleeping their on that particular day and I'm really sensitive to noise when I sleep.

Given that you're new and this post is the only one you've made I'd like you to let me know if you do plan to participate. If this is a puppet, please use your main account so your secret santa knows who they're writing to.

Those of you that would prefer delivery on the Julian calendar, please say so now. You can also send me a TG but I'd prefer to keep my inbox open for secret santa messages. I'll be checking it regularly and hopefully nobody's TG get missed.

So I sent everyone their TG. I do hope you've all received it and send me your heart-warming message in time for Christmas.

That said, those that take a bit longer to send me their message and do so past Christmas will probably receive their own message once they pass on theirs, because secret santa isn't just about receiving.
