It is always welcome! It's always a puzzle to get things on time at the right place. I am very suprised mine was on time. I think I was the last one to sent it away...  |

Anita!! The package was pretty but what was inside is AWESOME!  A special Dutch edition of X&Y!  I didn't even know there was a special Dutch edition! Lovely card, candy hearts (I remember them from when I was a child, we don't have them here anymore I think), photo from Royal Albert Hall and CONFETTI! I love confetti and I didn't have any from the GS tour I remember the photo, you had seen it and yourself in it. It's a really good one, big Coldplay hug to you too And then there was also my new bear friend! Take a closer look at his scarf and hat! It's a Coldplay bear! What a brilliant idea.  I'm overwhelmed. You put so much work into this even though you're so busy, it's lovely lovely lovely. On top of everything there was also so much pretty wrapping paper that goes straight into my paper crafts box. I'm reading a book now about traditional decorations and ornaments which was often made of reused paper so these will be great to make something of Thank you so much Anita!!  And thank you Sharon for arranging this!  |

You guys put me to shame. I'm just not artistic at all, just practical |

I'm not very artistic either, V, so no worries! It's the participation and the thought that counts.

I found a little time to make pictures and say a big THANK YOU to Leann: this is what my Secret Santa brought me!!! The package was way before christmass at my place; just this post on this board is a bit after christmas time hohoho. It is such a nice habit on this board, witch brings a lot of excitement and joy. Just to recieve an envelop in the mail from 'another' coldplay-lover somewhere on this earth is fun and it makes a special bond knowing that that person did this specialy for you :-) WOW Leann, thank you so much for the calender you made all by yourself and for the LOVELY card en your wish for me! Yes, this wil certainly bring me joy through the year!!! I put the calender and the card proudly near my PC for (indeed) a year full of dreams!!!      |

So glad you got it safely Anita (and early!) I was late last year so this year I mailed extra early LOL.... I tried to match up the pictures and the months for you. I looked and saw that your country celebrates a holiday with dressing up in costume that is a little bit like our Halloween, but in November instead of October, so that's why I put the "dress up" picture in November. SHARON was my Secret Santa and sent me this lovely gift:  Which if you can't see, includes a gift certificate to Chipotle, my favorite restaurant! Sharon knows, that Coldplay and Chipotle are the two things in the world that make me the happiest!!! |

Awesome! Here is the photo of my parcel. Carina sent me a salve made from her own garden, it smells wonderful, a Nobel prize Chocolate coin LOL.. 'For services to Coldplaying 2015'. LOL, two HUGE posters of the new album! Which I need to find frames for and a fabulous Cat toy. I didn't even realise it was a cat toy. But Mylo did! It's filled with catnip and he smelled it!! I barely had the paper off before he was pawing at it and trying to wrestle it out of my hands! He and his brother love it! The kittens decided to help me take the photo!   The second photo shows how much Loki loves the toy! Thank you again Carina. |
