My package from Bogielocks arrived a couple of days ago. He sent a Maui-Kauai mug and Xeno. (It's my first Rum Demon mug.) He also included some Hale Tiki swizzles, cocktail decorations and a fabulous Don the Beachcomber coaster.
Thank you so much, Rick.

Hey Bongo, I really hope you get your stuff. But I have to admit I'm enjoying your sorrowful posts. Kinda cruel, eh?

Was the BK the secret Santa for Bongo? And if so just where was BK when this exchange started, in Antarctica?  Or who else could have been lucky enough to have us all wondering what has happened to Bongo's exchange?
I can't wait to see what was gifted.

Well I just went back an re-read this entire thread and I see now it wasn't the BK, so who was it? And where is it, could it be the one who went on vacation and wont' be posting until they get back. What's that 2 more weeks? I feel for you bongo, but like I said before, GOOD THINGS COME TO THOSE WHO WAIT!

Bongo, you're not alone (well maybe on the "fetal position" thing!) I too am waiting...

Although I find Bongo's musings very entertaining, I wouldn't have left him hanging this long! I hope you luck improves this week! Rick, I hate to put a negative spin on this wonderful exchange you've set up, but maybe you should take note of the offending parties & politely decline any future offers of participation or just hook them up with each other!

I too find Bongo's musings very entertaining, and I've reassured him that his trade has been sent. I've been tracking it for a week or so now. I didn't want to ruin the surprise, but I have offered up the number to Bongo, but haven't sent it to him.
If we do this again, I will tighten up on the shipping restrictions and not have the final ship date too close to the holiday.
Cheers!
Rick
