I have received a package today! Now I am just waiting for the one I sent out to be received. It has been a while and I begin to worry about it a bit.

Greensurfingbear, I worked with a bunch of Hindu people one year, they reckoned that they had the best fun because they joined in with everyone's festivals, and invited everyone to theirs. (They served darned good food). So I reckon you can celebrate whatever you like on whichever date you choose and it will still be the midwinter festival.

But that will extend the fun.

I posted mine yesterday, tracking says it hasn't arrived yet. Hope it will arrive soon.

Have received a package. Glad it said Crafty SS on the outside, Else I would have just opened it. And now as I write this I realise I didn't put anything on my package to indicate it is CSS and shouldn't be opened until xmas... Oops.

Mine might have arrived... box left by the postie just had BCUK on it so I opened it up thinking that the present inside would be wrapped but it wasn't so I've received a nicely turned little wooden bowl and a nice sami style leather coffee pouch with a cramp ball and some wood wool inside for tinder :)

Only problem is I don't know if that's my Crafty Secret Santa pressie or my Brantub pressie :dunno:
