    Hi everyone!

    Just wanted to say thank you to everyone that has PM'd me to go on the Christmas Card list!

    I now have 16 names on the list.

    Just to emphasise, the idea of this list is that you work your way down and send each 'elf' a card.

    If anyone isn't prepared to send this amount of cards out can you please PM me requesting that I remove you from the list.

    Thank you x :)

    The Christmas cards had to be one of the best aspects of the elf last year because DS could not work this out at all. He is probably one of the older children 10 nearly 11yrs and a lot of the belief is gone but we still all had great fun with it. Every time a card arrived I would point to the postmark and say "but look it has come from ***** and I have never been there" I even showed him on a map one location because it was so far away. If our elf receives 16 cards from all over Britain DS will have no idea how we did it :rotfl:

    Not sure what the postman thought of all the cards to Christmas Crackers Frosty-Toes though :o

    Thanks again lexuslass for sorting this :T

    Hi Dottydee854 and welcome!!! I love your elf's name :)

    The facebook page is https://www.facebook.com/groups/216531835073273/

    Hope that works :D

    Also, send a PM to lexuslass (she's posted above so you can click on her name and send her a message) with your elf name and your address to be added to the christmas card list.

    Hope that helps and look forward to hearing about all the mischief Sally gets up to! :) xxxx

    sorry!! :o:o:o



    I am going to sound even dumber now... but, am I missing something in a previous post relating to this year?

    that facebook group is mainly people? Last year a lot of us had set up actual facebook profiles for our elves?

    There are many different types - search 'elf' on amazon or ebay and you can take your pick!

    It doesn't have to be an elf... some people use reindeer or snowmen...
