                        Reminds me of a cartoon I saw called Santa in court.  Father Christmas in the dock, the lawyer is yelling at him, pointing to his female client and saying: Did you not once, not twice, but three times call my client a 'ho'?!

As for me, I need a new colour cartridge fro my printer to print an awesome Christmas card I found on the web. Hopefully tommorow!

                        Ho ho ho! Happy to report that all kits are sent or in transit!

                        Guys- thanks so much for all the enthusiasm, excitement and wonderful giving spirit everyone has demonstrated.

                        This is all about the giving, the friendship and the fun. And I've been so happy to see that once folks do get their kits, it's been an almost child-like joy- which is so wonderful to have recaptured such fun.

                        Now for the hard part- you have to wait until Christmas to open them up! No cheating! LOL

                        From the bottom of my heart- thank you all.

                        Thanks Santa - my present arrived today. My wife is making me behave, sigh.....

                        Merry Christmas to all and to all a good build!

                        Cheers,

                        Eric

                        I'm doing my best to ignore the TWO packages that my SS sent to me. To bad they aren't under a tree yet. My soon to be ex-wife just moved out of the house (which means I'll be moving back in) so maybe I'll put up a tree next weekend so my two presents will have a proper place to live until the 25th.

                        You mean the SS Gift you have to send out will cost you 88 bucks to ship ?

                        NO WAY !

                        No worries, Sturzkampf. That's too much to spend on shipping..... I know your recipient pretty well, and he understands. Wink [;)]

                        Why not build both kits for the GB? That'd be perfect! Big Smile [:D] But no cheating and opening it before Christmas! LOL

                        Same goes for the rest of ya- step away from the kit! Hands in the air! Smile [:)]

                        Alright, card printed, package closed, my dad's gonna mail it off from the States tommorow (ka-money-and-time-save!). Sorry 'bout your luck, Sturz. Why not chuck it into your tank and go deliver it to your recipient. Make sure the penguins don't get it!
