It happens every year - without fail - unless cancelled ( the Sheriff of Nottingham did it ) ( Men in Tights ).
I would like - for Christmas - everyone here - to have a surprise.
A Very Happy Surprise.
( We can have a future challenge - 2016 - whose was the best surprise. )

To be read in a whiney voice -
Please go ahead without me.
I dislike surprises intensely
I have to plan to be spontaneous, really I do

I'm often surprised at Christmas (and birthdays). Surprised at how little my family knows about the things I like

Oh - do give me a break Stawks.
The reaction to surprises - has to be spontaneous.
(You remind me of my brother - another story)
I hope you get one - just to test - spontaneous.
And we wouldn't dream of going 'ahead without you'.
Never going to get that lucky.

I go in an online secret santa so I know I will get a lovely surprise.

Oh so true.
Geez - how do they see us.
I have the most beautiful silk jacket - four sizes too large - even in the days of - loose & comfy.
Occasionally get asked - I bought that for you & you have never worn it ( with the impression given - you've done your dash with gifts - why buy when you don't wear ).
This is now 20 years ago - no improvement really.

yep, been doing it for 4 or 5 years now, and I've always received a great gift. I think my recipients have liked theirs.
