If this is in the wrong place, I’m confident it will be moved elsewhere!

In trying to dredge up a little more info about my Christmas Exchange giftee, I’ve been trying to find previous years’ threads with no luck whatsoever in either the board search (keyword search in title only for Christmas Exchange) or in various combinations of things on Google.

Can someone help me?

You couldn’t find it because it was titled Secret Santa. 🙂

Ooh! Too bad I didn’t join and end up as your giftee. I would have loved one of your nifty lizard pins. 🙂
