We're all waiting with bated breath.

The person who sent the gift will then be able to know it's you.
If anyone has any questions about anything to do with the Mumsnet Christmas Appeal then do please email Santa.Claus@mumsnet.com.
Ho Ho Ho!
Melty so did I. Was going to be a struggle to do one, so two will be a bit harder...<tightens belt> 
solo do you want to pass one of yours on to me? I offered to buy for 4 children (as I have 4 and always like to buy for 4 other children, one from each of mine if that makes sense) but my match which I've received is only for 2 children. More than happy as I was expecting to buy more. FB or PM me x
I love Christmas.

Now I know what I'm getting, part of it needs to arrive here, then I can get me to the post office, I fear I'm not as organised as some!
Aww fan, hug for you my lovely X
fan sorry you have been having a bleak time, hope it all turns around.

What if you have been daft and forgotten what you offered to donate? Where might such a foolish person be reminded?

Hi Ali, we'll PM you.
Sandy thank you 
Oh sugar I didn't realise we were supposed to do it asap... was thinking to send my pack some time in December 2 days before Xmas <runs off to sort something out quickly>
Ali - I was sort of in the same situation, but DH and I think we remembered 
Just ordered mine online - got it gift wrapped and delivered straight there - although I've just realised, I hope they don't put a reciept in with my details on!
I was worried about that Ruck, so got it delivered here, and will post it on.
I have signed up to give a gift but I haven't had a match
What should I do?
Catgirl - check your emails... You're looking at one from 'Santa Claus' - May be in Spam...
Brain Surgeon, I dont get paid for 2 weeks so mine will be going out special delivery then, as long as it gets there before xmas I dont see a problem really.
Ah...I never check my spam - just delete
Have e-mailed MN so hopefully they can re-send
Galena too late to change now. It says they don't include a receipt so hopefully won't be all my details, if it is, hopefully the MNetter can ignore it just enjoy the gifts :-)
Um, I forgot what I offered too. Please could MN PM me?
I have just had a lovely letter addressed to Miss MumsNetter. Thank you, thank you, thank you for the ELC voucher. I am beyond overwhelmed at this, and I will spend it wisely on my lovely dc. Thank you. Such a lovely surprise 

Is it too late to nominate?

Hi Scrazy,
Thank you so much for the thought.
All the matches have gone out for this year, but next year would be lovely!

Hi BrainSurgeon,
No need for a quick dash, after all it is still November.... This should be a joy and stress free, so take your time! And thank you Everyone!
Recipient MN073 here... Thank you so much, secret Santa! I was absolutely amazed to be nominated, and would like to thank both my nominator and my sender. I haven't decided what to get with it, but I think it will be something for me to enjoy.
(Obviously I've namechanged so my nominator won't know that I'm thanking them, but I am!) 
I have started collecting "items" for a box of stuff I need to send. Sorry, but if I say what is in it, I might out myself. Years and years ago, my lovely DH delivered a present, are we still allowed to do that? I thought I might send a little letter asking the mumsnetter when they might be in and combine it with a weekend trip to near them. Any ideas/suggestions?x
