[Jevverrett]

This looks like a lot of fun. Sorry I didn't get on here in time.

Fourteen reindeer??? Are you just trying to confuse everything? :fpalm: :lol!:

 

[puros_bran]

That's a MOASS... mother of all Secret Santa.

Excepting my SS doing just right I'd be jealous as all get out.

 

[the rev]

Santa BoB is hitting it out of the park this year!

 

[DrumsAndBeer]

Somebody Super Sized their Insta-cellar. Nice Santa! :santa:

 

[bentbulldog]

Indeed, Santa has been VERY generous.

I have yet to be paid a visit but seeing my fellow BoB with such joy is already more than I need!

My gift is being a part of this community. :santa: :rendeer:

Santa needed the extra reindeer power for some of the packages. HO ho ho! :santa:

Keep an eye out the window tomorrow. You don't want to let Santa slip by with a note telling you he'll be back on Monday. Ho ho ho! :santa:

That's an amazing haul. :cheers:

 

[i.keenum]

That's a literal wall of tobacco. Congrats that is awesome!

 

[user 1862]

Good Lord, this thread has been active in my absence.  Loads of goodies for all boys and girls be they good or bad.  I'm enjoying a French Press of the coffee that Santa dropped on me, slightly fortified, as it doubles as breakfast.  

 

[tslots]

Well Santa BOB covered all the bases with me this year.  Smacked me for being good and being bad.  The good stuff far outweighed the bad though:

Some tins of new tobacco to try, a cool bent billiard with a nice blast finish and some sweets.

Thanks Santa!   :santa:

 

[Carlos]

Way to go Santa's! A lot of really cool pipes. The most amazing coffee, candies, and stuff. Good tobaccos. Santa's on a roll. Just a couple left to be delivered. Ho ho ho! :santa:

 

[bentbulldog]

Looks like I have been put on the Good List!

I came back from my afternoon smoke to find a package waiting!

Behold, my booty...


The note:
Merry Christmas Charles!

I didn't see you on any of the evening news channels or your name+picture on the post office walls, so I figured you were pretty good in 2014. (Or at least good enough no to get caught) :twisted: :twisted: :twisted:
Enjoy the treats and have a Happy New Year!

The goods:
2 Packs Pipe cleaners - Perfect Timing as I was running a bit low.
Trader Joes, Triple Ginger Cookie Thins
Trader Joes, Chocolate Kona Coffee Truffles - These will help keep me up in the office
About 2oz of McClelland Townsman Cavendish Blue (A smooth, old-style blend of Burley, Maryland and Virginia tobaccos with Maple sugar flavoring.) - Mmm Maple, looking forward to trying this!

50g each of McClelland - Classic Samsun and Drama Reserve - :cheers: I love the Grand Orientals, these two are among the top.
50g each G&H - Rum Flake & Ennerdale - I like the Lakelands and Rum Flake!

50g pf Peterson's Perfect Plug - A new blend for me to try

And two of my TOP blends
50g S&G - Best Brown Flake :cheers:
50g Esoterica - Penzance :cheers:

THANK YOU SANTA!!

The sweets would've been more than enough! All this tobacco was a well appreciated bonus. May the blessings of elves, men, and all free folk go with you!
