Among many other downsides (including a decidedly dodgy verification process), imminent age-verification is likely to bugger up Twanta this year. This is why we can't have nice things. I'll make an official announcement in October. www.msn.com/en-gb/lifest...

🎄 I'm putting this account to sleep until next Christmas. #Twanta2024 has been HUGELY successful, thanks to you lovely Twantadors. Thank you all from the bottom of my Santa sack. (Just Canadian items outstanding now. I'll report on those from @wombat37.bsky.social ) Bye until next year. HO HO HO! 🎅
I’m not part of it this year, but I’ve still felt much joy by following the #Twanta2024 hashtag today.
Oh my very word*, look at this! Bloody marvellous. #Twanta2024 - "strangers become friends". That's what it's all about. *Gosh. My very word is GOSH.
If you've posted a photo of your #Twanta2024 pressies and I haven't responded yet, please let me know. I'm bound to miss a few in the joyful throng.
I could do with something to snack on while I'm doing this. Also, I wonder if we've got any Buck's Fizz? #Twanta2024
Just taking a quick break. Back shortly, my lovely #Twanta2024 Twantadors.
An epistletoe! (see the Twanta glossary - EPISTLETOE: a hand-written letter included with the gift to add a virtual Christmas kiss and a personal touch.)
Here I am! Sorry it took so long to don the Twanta outfit. I hope you've all had a lovely Christmas morning. Now, let's top up the advocaat and get started on the #Twanta2024 reveals.
⭐ TWANTADORS ASSEMBLE! ⭐ Tomorrow please take a photo of your gift & post it on Bluesky with the hashtag #TWANTA2024, so that we can all follow the hashtag & the fun. Not sure what time I'll be 'compos mentis', but when I am I’ll reveal each person’s gift-giver. 🎁 FEED: bsky.app/profile/did:...

🎁🎄 With allowances for Canada, there are still 7 #Twanta2024 gifts in transit. Hoping these will arrive with their twantees tomorrow or Tuesday. Or maybe they already have & twantadors forgot to tell me. BIG HOPE: none of them have gone missing in the post. Merry Twanta, my shiny little twantadors!
It's been a BUSY BUSY day in #Twanta2024 but I think, 🤞, that everyone's gift is accounted for, with generous Fairies stepping in to help cover for the Canadian postal strike. Well done everyone, well done.
Tomorrow I'll DM everyone who hasn't yet told me they've posted a gift (or maybe I just missed it) to check they're still on the Nice List. Last recommended posting date for second class is the 18th. #Twanta2024
#Twanta2024 is all going very well, thank you, you bobby dazzlers. Those twantees assigned Canadian twantas are being treated by fairies, so they won't miss out. Our Canadians themselves, I'm afraid, will have to wait for their postal strike to be sorted. #Twanta2024
Just a heads up that the last recommended posting day for UK 2nd class post is this coming Wednesday, 18th December. #Twanta2024
The Canadian postal strike continues to muck up overseas connections, so for those we must relax embrace the spirit of que sera sera.
Update: there are SIX DAYS to the 2nd class posting cut-off date in the UK of 18th December, and TWENTY-FIVE gifts yet to be sent. The average transit time for UK presents at the moment is 3 days. #Twanta2024
@twanta.bsky.social (Hymn 42. Winchester Old) While Wombie darned his socks one night All Twanta-ed on the ground The helper of the elves came down Trifecta shone around. #twanta2024 I do most of my postage online so didn't know there were Discworld stamps this Xmas. Another excellent thing.
We have reached the milestone of half the gifts having been sent. There's still oodles of time yet for the others. No rush yet. #Twanta2024
