I was thinking of organising a Secret Santa event for Christmas for members of the Madmums Community.

Here is how it will work.

Firstly if you are interested in participating please reply to this post saying so, if you are not sure what it is then read on and all will be revealed, I will compile a list of all members that have committed to taking part in this first post (I'll edit it to add names as and when). The list will stay open until the 1st of December (2005 of course!) up until this date, you may add or remove your name, after this date consider yourself committed. Another thing to consider is that in order to take part you will have to give your real life home address to MumSam and Myself which in turn will be passed on to another member of the community (your randomly chosen Secret Santa), so if you are not comfortable with this then please don't add your name.

How it will work, on or around the 2nd of December we will send you the address of another member who is taking part in the event, you will then be their Secret Santa, your name will be given to another member taking part and they will become your Secret Santa and so on... You do not tell anyone who's Secret Santa you are, not even the member, hence the name, Secret Santa.

You will then be given until the 14th of December to purchase a gift for designated member, this gift should not exceed £10 in cost, it should not be second hand either, lol. You will then be expected to wrap the present, place a gift tag or label on it marked along the lines of From Madmums Secret Santa (Not your own name!!) and then post it to designated Madmum on or around the 15th/16th of December. You should also around this time received a gift from your Madmums Secret Santa. Your secret Santa will not be the same person you have sent a gift too, understand how it works now?

That's about the bones of it, I will amend it and change any bits upon feedback from you all. I will also edit and amend the list below of members that want to take part.

Ho Ho Ho
