Title: Secret Santa
Post by: Pachyderm on December 18, 2008, 05:46:43 PM
Secret Santa visited our office today. Lots of cool stuff was in evidence.

I got a pair of little remote control helicopters that shoot at each other.

Now my Quest is to find two leather flying helmets, goggles and those scarves which stick out behind you.

Office War is officially declared.

Now I can be a Pirate of the Skies as well.... ;D

Cool! :mrgreen:

When/if you get Christmas presents at work here you usually get something rather boring... and everyone will get the same thing.

London boy (a good friend of me and Lindorm) is over here at the moment, earlier this evening we had dinner together and exchanged presents. I got a very pretty purple Tombow Object fountain pen. ;D L got a black one and we gave LB some books in Swedish (he speaks and read it pretty well by now) and a silly silicone baking tin for muffins shaped like a steam locomotive and cars...

Those silicone "tins" make excellent ice cube trays, too....!

You might wish to remember that, the next time you stir up a bowl of punch.  A nice icy-train would be just the thing....

I'll tell him that, we where thinking ice decoration piece for the Christmas table (his parents would certainly not approve  :mrgreen: ) or using it as a cast for home made ice cream as well as for muffins. :giggle:
