I couldn't resist looking it up!!!

I did have one of those and a viewmaster (remember those!!)  that ran on batteries. It worked really good in the dark!!!  My Grandmother gave me both!!  Thought I had my fortune when I got my viewmaster. I was about 6 or 7 when I got it.

Ooooops, I'm asking others to put their gift status up, and I don't think I did it.... :shy;

Here we go, then....

Mum (Elsie)... Her gift to her person is sent, and I understand has been received...

My gift to my person... Ditto...

Mum's gift has not yet arrived...

My gift... Ditto...

I understand the reindeer are 'Directionally Challenged', but not to worry... Not the end of the world.... Reindeer are a bit like me then... I've absolutely NO sense of direction... I'd get lost in a phone box!... ;D...

By the way, thanks Grammalady... You're a gem!...

Ha Ha!!!!!.... Okay Dan....

With a bit of luck, it'll be that box of Fosrenal, and the pink thong mentioned in the Gift Exchange thread!...
