    I'll give you something alright...
  • Gonna give this place a rest for a while (too much of a time sink). So can I be removed from any list for this they might have already been made. Don't wanna miss a PM and disapoint anyone.

    Nah don't do that.

    Right then, here's the list...

    If you could all have a look through and see who's missing or who shouldn't be there (I've left LiveIn out after his post), also check on the foreigners just so we all know (not sure what to do with you Elm as you said you had a UK address plus I don't know if you'll be here or there come crimbo time).

    We need to decide an amount, I think that a minimum of a tenner is alright (though I don't mind upping it to £20) for most isn't it?

    I'll also post the list in the OP then when we decide on a cut-off date I will post the final list and then need to start getting some addresses (I will have some from the posters I'm sending out) to pass on to the gifter.

    I also agree that we shouldn't disclose what we got or who we bought for until Xmas day at the earliest?
  • sounds a good plan
    He could've just said they came from another planet but seems keen to convince people with his bullshit pseudoscience that he knows stuff. I wouldn't trust him with my lunch. - SG
  • 20 quid sounds fine for me.

    As mentioned elsewhere, I'm travelling for 3 weeks during December so will have to post before I leave - so if we could set a deadline for deciding who we're sending to by November 30th that would be great!
  • Minimum of £10 would be preferable.

    If my being in this is too awkward I can drop out. Basically a downloadable gift would be preferable, but if necessary I can give a UK address, even though I won't get the gift for a good while. Sending something won't be a problem.
  • Yup, you can reach me via a BFPO address, so I'm as good as in the UK.
  • I'd like to be involved. It won't cost me much to send something from here and I can put I'll home over Xmas to collect my present anyway.

    Just a question regarding clothing. Is it worth people saying their size (say, if someone wanted to buy a t-shirt)?

    Sorry to hear that Davie, I've removed you from the list.

    I've just read that email from Amazon, I'm not sure what the bloke is on about re: the price, I just asked him if the senders details would be visible as some people aren't keen on anybody knowing stuff, we all already know the minimum price and if it comes from Amazon you can just go on the site and see how much stuff was if you're that bothered.
  • Again, I know I'm being pedantic, but I find the idea of buying something through Amazon/online to be a bit...boring.

    There is no fun or sentiment in just picking something from Amazon and having them deliver it to the person in my opinion. Regardless of price, I'm really looking forward to someone spending some time thinking of what they'd like to get me and receiving a package with stamps and handwriting on through my door.

    I'd much rather someone just spend a couple of quid and spend the time and effort to do that than spending more and getting a courier to send it to me.

    The problem is that unless you get something sent direct to the person there is a chance you'd get fuck all once postage had been taken out of the equation.

    You have to remember that for some people spending a tenner could be the equivalent of you spending £200, as they say it's the thought that counts and even including yourself in this means something. I only suggested Amazon because of the ease of getting free delivery and no indication of who it is from...

    I'll replace davie if that's cool?

    Sorry to read about your cancellation davie, hope you and fambo can manage something from modest means.

    As I clearly stated, I'd much prefer someone spent a couple of quid on me and put some thought into it than spent 20 quid on some download code for an XBOX Live game.

    The excitement is in receiving a package that someone has actually put together.

    Also, lets not start throwing the 200 to you is the equivalent of 10 to someone else. I've got a mortgage, a kid, a wife who doesn't work, etc. It's not fair to paint me with that brush.
