Thanks Gadget.
I 'm happy with anything....surprise me !
I bought my present today for......sshhhhh...hope you like it!
i've just read in another thread that due to circumstances the secret santa for this year hasn't been able to happen, so i want to try and organise another one!.
according to the lady at the post office, the closing date for international mail to be delivered before xmas is this week, but for post on the same continent we still have a few weeks so i'll try and take that into account so everyone can have their prezzy before christmas day.

i was a little surprised to learn that many people do not really understand the purpose of jwd.
many are focused on freedom of speech and the fact that this is a "discussion" board.
to some this does seem to go against the heavy moderating the board has seen lately, feeling that discussion is suppressed, some going so far as to suggest that mind control is subtly involved here as in the organization.
I think youre right! When I first left it was because Simons site gave me the confidence to leave with my head held high due to the UN issue.
Looking back this place has been such a life line to me-i'm so happy I found you all.
When I met some of you at Mikes' bbq this year and last year I really felt we were genuinely pleased to see eachother.
I feel incredibly protective of all of you and hope that we'll continue to support eachother. Leaving is a very emotional time- and this place really softened the blow for me and made me feel I had somewhere to come when the feelings got too much for others to understand.
It's given me the confidence back I had before the Org and although I sometimes get the feeling some here don't like me- it dos'nt matter; i'd do anything for any of you .
The feelings of total and absolute rejection and the anger and frustration when your reasons for leaving are belittled are overwhelming.
To say this place extends a life line is'nt being dramatic- it's what I feel Simon's site has achieved.
i've been putting silent lambs information out and about, where ever magazines are left; and also in places where other public information is posted on notice boards eg; libraries, doctor's waiting rooms etc.. i've just noticed today, when i went to check them to make sure they had'nt been covered by anything else - that they have been removed..and money placed where they were.... anyone heard of this before?
i think witnesses are removing them and leaving money so that they don't feel they're 'stealing' .
i shall keep replacing them, but it's really strange behaviour- don't you think?.

november 9th, i got the call at approx 5.15am that morning and have just arrived home from his house in the midlands for the first time since then.
age 65, very happy man regardless of his illness, had all his wits about him but didnt have any lungs left to help him make it through, suffered a lot.
never became a witness inspite of mom and 3 of his children being jws for years.
