I am so, so happy. Am home in Brighton for Christmas, popped into Oxfam for last-minute pack of cards and there it was!!!! It is in excellent nick, and came with dustbag and care cards and I have a good eye for these things so I am sure it's genuine.
I stuck an extra tenner in the donation box; guy behind the counter was so lovely and said he was so pleased to see how happy I was! I was almost in tears, I've wanted an amazing bag for ages but had resigned myself to never getting one. Still a lot of money to spend on myself (we have had a very tight couple of years!) but as it's for charity I can justify it!
Merry Christmas MN! Hope you get pressies that make you as happy as mine to myself has made me 
BTW it's this one but in cobalt blue...

Congratulations ephemeralfairy !
We had a really tight few years when we first got together, so I can imagine how nice it is to have something luxurious after all that time! It must have felt like a Christmas miracle! 
Plus you say this bag is a lot of money for you, yet you felt so fortunate to find it that you gave an extra tenner. That tells me you are a super nice person who is the rightful custodian of that bag. Enjoy it!
I love it when something like this happens! So very pleased for you and for your gorgeous squishy bag to have found such a lovely new owner. May you both have many adventures together!
