Time for us to formally close off #vinylsanta 2025. We'll keep the fundraiser link for Vince in our bio. Would be nice to top £200. 😉 Thanks again for the donations and for taking part in this year's Vinyl Santa. We'll see you in November! 🎅 actingforothers.enthuse.com/pf/vincewill...

Returned from my holiday travels to find a large eclectic package from my #VinylSanta. Humminguru gonna be busy over the next few days.

The fundraiser this year brought in £181/ $244/€208 for Acting for others. Thank you to everyone who chipped in. We have never tied the event to a charity before and are very happy to have been able to do something in Vince’s memory.

Per the guidelines a good VS is 3-5 records in good condition. Most everyone from what we have seen managed this, but not all. Next year we will be more stringent about this. If you send one record and it’s not your recipient’s bag then their whole VS is a bust.

I’ve now listened to all my #vinylsanta gifts, A sides and B sides, and love them all. Thank you again @vinylsanta.bsky.social , I wish you and all participants and great 2026 🥳

#vinylsanta I apologize for the late exclamatory thanks to my #VinylSanta. We have family staying and it’s a been long time since we have seen them. Besides that my wife put the carton in one their rooms since the tree came up later. My Vinyl Santa is a newbie this year, but he is GREAT! Love it!

A big thank you to everyone who participated this year and made #Vinylsanta a success and a big thank you to everyone that made a donation to the fundraiser in honor of Vince actingforothers.enthuse.com/pf/vincewill... the fundraiser is still open and any donation is appreciated. 1/2

Reminder if you haven’t posted your #VinylSanta yet, please do, sharing your VS here is a big part of the event. Be considerate and appreciative to your sender and post.

Might have gotten a bit of dust in my eye Thank you #VinylSanta These are beautiful 🥹 Thanks to @maffrj.bsky.social for being the messenger too Really touched, thank you x

An absolute haul! First time I've taken part and what a lovely thing in a world of shite. Just going to put some pampas grass outside my house and put Fine Flowing Hits on. #vinylsanta

This Tupperware curated Christmas compilation is the perfect amount of cheese, cheer, and classics that straddles the novelty record line perfectly, soundtrack for tonight's Christmas dinner. Thanks again #vinylsanta

Huge thanks once again to the @vinylsanta.bsky.social gang for organising & shepherding yet another amazing community beano x

Anyone know what language this is? 😂 🎅 #vinylsanta

This year we wanted to have a charitable fundraising element to #Vinylsanta . We picked a charity that supports actors in memory of frequent #Vinylsanta and #Weekendsingles participant @golfyfun.bsky.social who passed away this year. If you have the means please consider making a donation.

I’m so grateful for the kind words and kind gift. I’m completely taken aback. Thank you so much. 🤍🤍🤍 Sorry for missing 7pm last night, just lots to manage. I hope everyone has an amazing Christmas and can spend time with the things and people they love 🤍 #VinylSanta (And yes, I did cry xx)

🎺 The best Christmas album bar none. #parp. 🎺 🎄 🎵 Sending love to all the @vinylsanta.bsky.social community and all weird record people everywhere.

#VinylSanta No complaints here, nice little selection. Something to look forward to when I finish work tonight.

Christmas morning #NowPlaying from the #vinylsanta haul. Thanks again!

#VinylSanta Sorry for late opening my shift was anti vinyl santa hours this year.

Apologies for the delay, but #vinylsanta decided I’d been a good boy and dropped these down the chimney - an album that was a mainstay of every student digs when I was at college, and something I’ve never heard of but look forward to exploring.

(Not) sorry for posting this again. #vinylsanta 🎅 actingforothers.enthuse.com/pf/vincewill...

Never did thank @vinylsanta.bsky.social yesterday for organising such a fantastic ‘thing’ year on year. Thank you .. it’s a beautiful thing this. Really do appreciate the effort to get this done. Merry Christmas to all the VS gang ❤️x

This #ChristmasEve we are puttin' on the RITZ! Thank you, THANK YOU @vinylsanta.bsky.social for the classy, (gift wrapped??!) Vegas vibes #vinylsanta haul! 🎅 Here's to another great year of spinnin'!

Just wanted to give a Big Thank You to @vinylsanta.bsky.social for all the hard work that goes into organising a fabulous event. Happy Christmas

Thank you so much #vinylsanta — especially excited about the Lucky Strike branded comp: that was my grandfather’s brand. 🚬 #jazzsky #vinylcommunity

Exquisite @vinylsanta.bsky.social delivery today. Draws a real bead on my taste profile while also seeking to expand it. Maybe I'll do an all-vinyl set for my January @kchungradio.bsky.social show!

Did I pick me as my @vinylsanta.bsky.social ? Because this is EXACTLY what I would have gotten myself!!! THANKS SO MUCH, MY NEW (MYSTERIOUS) FRIEND!!!

QUITE the #vinylsanta haul this year! Took this pic before I found a 7" in the package that strikes me like a crust-punk split. STOKED

Thank you so much to my #VinylSanta whomever you are. Some classic Christmas cheer, new to me but curious, Bowie adjacent soundtrack and classic Gary Numan record. More description in Alt text. Excellent choices, thanks again. Hope you all have a Merry Christmas!

Thanks as always go to @vinylsanta.bsky.social for organising and executing. Chuffed doesn’t cover it. Thanks again to my #vinylsanta 🙌

Be helpful if I posted the photo! #vinylsanta @vinylsanta.bsky.social

Eeeep! I have obviously been on the nice list @vinylsanta.bsky.social 🙌🎅🏻 Who doesn’t love a bit of ABBA, Simon & Garfunkel or the Shadows? Had Scritti on tape, so nice to score this. Excited by Fashiøn as I have a 12” of theirs somewhere. Joan Baez and John Denver for the easy listening. Thank you!

Apologies @vinylsanta.bsky.social, ran into friends after being out for dinner. Going in…. #vinylsanta

Totally fabulous haul from my #VinylSanta thank you so much for the thoughtful eclecticism ❤️👏🏻

Excellent #vinylsanta selection this year. Stones, Monkees, McCartney, Elvis, Kris Kristofferson and Stephen Bishop. Merry Vinyl Christmas all!

#VinylSanta Thanks for the gift of rock Vinyl Santa! Looking forward to giving these a spin, not heard of Tytan, they look cool!

Apologies for the lateness of the hour #vinylsanta but this is so much up my alley. I have a different Horslips album on CD and enjoyed it immensely and Queen mainly at Live Aid, who could say no. Thank you very much

This year's #VinylSanta: Liza & Cope 12"s, a Los Bravos 7" & 4×12" mint cardboard mailer stiffeners x

#vinylsanta 🥳 Cor wot a lovely selection. Thank you 🙏 to you and the organisers 👏 always brings joy, some years of life are harder than others and bright spots like this help ❤️

Absolutely blown away by this year's #vinylsanta. Such a generous package and some absolute belters. The Wonder Stuff, The Chemical Brothers, Pet Shop Boys, Roxy Music, Jean Michelle Jarre, Vangelis, Mark Hopkins, a couple of compilations and the rest. Really made up with this haul. Thank you!

#VinylSanta obviously did his homework… 🎄💚❤️💚❤️

#vinylsanta, I'm getting wigged out now to regain my "lost fluffiness" and imagine I was a child of the 60's! 🤒🥴. Trippy or what!? Think this will be my only snowball given I'm in work tomorrow. Thanks @vinylsanta organisers for all your hard work again this year. Have a blessed Christmas all! x

Omg! I’m blown away by the generosity of my #VinylSanta Can’t wait to open all these…

#VinylSanta Sorry! Out and about later than expected, will open parcel and post within the next hour (I hope!)

I’m a bit late posting my #vinylsanta, but what a selection! Including the all-time greatest Christmas album and a chance to explore Jefferson Starship and Tangerine Dream. Thank you vinyl Santa!

And this excellent card, with a lovely message from #vinylsanta is the icing on the Christmas cake. What a brilliantly put together selection, a huge thank you whoever you are, and a big shout to @vinylsanta.bsky.social for organising in such fine fashion. Merry Christmas folks! xx

My first-ever #VinylSanta gift package exceeded all expectations! Huge Aimee Mann fan and Radiohead & Motown are can't-miss as well. Happy Holidays everyone!
