    I very briefly misread that. Maybe I need to go take a nap

      Ah the first ones have swum the big and chilly pond. taxguykarl's kitties and ghel's winter village have safely arrived and are up on the shelf
      Tsk, tsk. Looks like my card is still stuck in the Royal Post somewhere, and Ghel gets to be the BINGO! winner. Ah well.

        • My cards are ready to go. Was going to drop them in the mail on my way home from work tomorrow but then I remembered I changed my schedule this week and am working from home Monday and Tuesday, so unless I have another reason to leave the house (unlikely) they will be mailed on Wednesday.

            • I got something from Irv that is 'Merry Clarkmas'... although I have no idea who it is... Apparently it's National Lampoon-now I've vaguely heard of that although looking at the cast list the only one who springs to mind is Johnny Galecki. And some famous Brits in the European one. On checking further, there were plans in 2020 to show it at 100 cinemas here for the first time since it was released in 1989,but it looks like Covid nobbled that idea-and no sign of it since. Seems it was much bigger over the pond....

                Yup. NL's Christmas Vacation. The guy playing "Clark" is comedian Chevy Chase. Goofy-ass, no-brain-required movie. I'd recommend that after watching the original NL's Vacation

                      • Meant to post this the other day, but received Kit's card in the mail.
                        Eh, one day I'll have something useful here. Until then, have a cookie or two.

                        • Kit-Ginevra's card just arrived.
                          I'm trying to see things from your point of view, but I can't get my head that far up my keister!

                              • We are at almost 50%! I am also happy to say that everyone has reported at least two cards received. Usually there's at least one that doesn't let us know who they got cards from. Keep it up!

                                ETA: got a card today (or sometime in the last three days, at least) from EricKei, and also my cousin James and my friend Miriam.
                                ETA: that put us at 50.0%!
