October Secret Sister Sign up and theme choosing.

**light_sabe_r** · 09-27-2006, 02:50 PM

OKAY! I thought I'd give organising Secret Sister a go this month.

For those of you unfamiliar with Secret Sister... You've got until next Wednesday (4 October 2006) to PM me your name and address if you'd like to be involved. Next Thursday/Friday you'll get an address back. You send that woman a present according to the current theme. At this stage we haven't figured that out yet...

I'm not sure what to do for a theme again. According to last months poll, favourite bike tools were the runner up. We could run with that but at this stage it's open for suggestion.

You know, it's been done before, but I really love the sock exchange. Can you ever have too many???

**BleeckerSt_Girl** · 09-27-2006, 03:12 PM

I like the idea of socks, and also favorite bike tools.
Also, how about writing instruments? (pens, pencils, crayons, markers, etc) There's an awful lot of fun ones out there, and lots within the price range.

Socks are a fun idea. Or to go along with a earlier suggestion with writting tools. What about extending it to statonary? Encourage the snail mail route.

I like socks! I can never have enough of those in my drawer!
And if you wanted, you could throw in a cute little pen and pad of paper also.

i'm for socks! all mine have holes in them!

**Bikingmomof3** · 09-27-2006, 03:45 PM

I PM'd you. I enjoy secret sister swaps.

My vote is for socks, I have a thing for socks, but will go with whatever.

**biking4health** · 09-28-2006, 04:46 AM

My vote is for socks too....you can never have too many pairs of cute socks.

I like cute note pads or pens.
But I got lovely sox-es last time and I enjoyed shopping for my SS's socks too

**tygab** · 09-28-2006, 01:02 PM

preferrably Red. ok so they're outta it this year, but october and Sox just seem to go well. wouldn't you agree Chicagoans?

seriously I have no cool socks for cycling. I use boring running ones. How cool to add some fun ones from a secret sis!

I am sure I'll enjoy finding some, too!

**mimitabby** · 09-28-2006, 01:30 PM

I vote for sox. you can get really nice ones for the cost of a cheap teeshirt!
and they fit in an envelope!

I think the Secret Sister thing sounds really good.

I am fascinated getting anything from the States.

Looking back on other SS threads, there have been items mentioned that I have never heard of, such as:

Spoke bracelet.....................now this looks so cool!
Chocolate band aides
Lip Schit
Bag Balm
Sport Beans
Honey Stinger

None of the above can we get in the UK.

Now socks, I recently saw some K. Bell Ladies Flame Socks, awesome!

Looking forward to sorting out something for my SS.

Ok so apparently me wanting to somehow finagle someone sending me a bag of $50's is out so ....... socks works. Lip balm works. Anything bike related makes me happy but of course jsut being thought of makes me happy.

I guess I am trying to say..... what's the theme???

**Brina** · 09-28-2006, 04:45 PM

I am in - and up for whatever theme is chosen.

**wannaduacentury** · 09-28-2006, 06:38 PM

Socks and stationary sound fun. Since it's getting cool-maybe some more warmer socks for fall/winter riding. ?? Say the cute wooly booly socks?

Count me in btw
