UPDATE:

So the awesome book was just a small part of the best reddit gift. I was in the US on holiday in January and my giftee delivered to my hotel - hows that for service?!

I came back from a full day of sightseeing to this huge box with a bow on it.

Inside were the following generous pile of gifts;

A toy for my dog Attila

Salted chocolate caramels

Dr Who poster of his name in Gallifreyan

San Jose Sharks socks & puck (TIL; pucks are heavy and rubber!)

A tub of peanut butter filled pretzels

A tub of oatmeal raisin cookies

A print of the Tardis on a book page

A bottle of Macallan 12 Whisky!

And a bunch of bananas for scale; which I used to their full potential in the photos.

My partner and I may have pigged out on the snacks and ate pretty much everything in the drive from SF to Portland that we did the next few days. I managed to pack away the other gifts and they arrived safely back in Australia a few weeks later (7889 miles according to Google!)

Its currently too hot to wear socks here (pushing 100F at the moment) but I will be wearing them as soon as winter rolls around.

Once again - thank you Mark!!

It's here!! After conversing with my Santa and fervently watching the tracking and hoping it would arrive before my holiday away for a month, it came with one day to spare.

It is a wonderfully insightful gift and the wait was definitely worth it, its also 1 of 2 gifts which is amazingly generous too.

It is a hardbound copy of the Ultimate Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy and a US $2 note (just for fun)

I have only read the first book of the series, and I have a painting of the Whale and Petunias on my wall, as well as a planned tattoo incorporating my nerdy loves - so this is a perfect gift!

I am also pretty excited to have a $2 note, I didn't know they existed until this morning!

Thanks so much Mark!
