To the absolutely wonderfully selfless Mumsnetter who has sent me two pairs of much needed shoes!

Not just shoes, fairly fancy shoes and brand new! I can't believe I have two pairs of brand new shoes!

Thank you so much kind mumsnetter you have absolutely made my (otherwise pretty awful actually) week.

I have a pair of sandals which are cool enough to wear all summer but nice enough to wear at work and a pair of really comfortable pumps.

I've not had new shoes for years and years. So happy!

Mumsnet at its best. Made me smile too

I know, truly evil! She commented on my 'barefoot' thread and then said she would send me some shoes, I just thought she was the same size as me and had lots of shoes, turns out she sent me two pairs of new shoes!

Today has been simply awful and that has really cheered me up, They are SO comfortable!

Lovely stuff, what a nice lady Wine cheers!

TheHouseatWhoCorner · 23/05/2014 17:28

How lovely!
Wear them in around the house for a bit a) so you can keep looking at them and b) so that when you wear them outside they are the most comfortable shoes ever.
I hope they continue to make you smile for a very long time to come,

nomorequotes · 23/05/2014 17:30

I have not taken them off since I put them on! I just had to take them off to get my work trousers on and I was very keen to get them back on! So comfy :)

Very recently I have been blown away by the kindness of mumsnet. One mner in particular sent me the most thoughtful and gorgeous gift after I had asked for some recommendations on books. I'm having a shitty time at the moment and she really, really cheered me up!
It's little things like this that give me faith in people again.
Enjoy your shoes!

DorisAllTheDay · 23/05/2014 17:47

You've cheered me up by proxy. I'm glad to know there are such lovely people in the world.

Any MN-ers care to send me their winning lottery ticket? Grin

Fcukfifa · 23/05/2014 17:54

Absolutely love reading things like this! Enjoy your shoes :))

Fcukfifa · 23/05/2014 17:55

Oh and what a wonderfully lovely person the mnetter is who sent them!!

LaurieFairyCake · 23/05/2014 17:58

That's such a lovely story

Mumsnetters are the cats ovaries

jeanmiguelfangio · 23/05/2014 18:42

Oh thats so lovely, well done anonymous mumsnetter, nothing like a RAK to make your day

MrsTerryPratchett · 23/05/2014 18:57

Anonymous MNer who couldn't wait for Secret Santa. Grin

How lovely

I hope the donor is reading and realising how much pleasure s/he has put into the world

ChampagneTastes · 23/05/2014 19:03

How nice. Thanks for sharing - has cheered me up too!

nomorequotes · 23/05/2014 21:31

I have been blown away by RAK this year, both on mumsnet and on other mediums online.

I think it adds a whole lot more light to the world.

I look forward to the day when I can offer the same RAK to others. So pleased

It is so wonderful to read about such a kind person and indeed such a lovely OP to publicly thank them. You read about such shitty behaviour on mn then a lovely thread like this comes along and gives you faith in people. Enjoy your new shoes. Smile

Ewieindwie1 · 23/05/2014 21:41

Made me smile! Enjoy your new shoes.

ICanSeeTheSun · 23/05/2014 21:44

Enjoy your new shoes, to the poster who sent them you must feel very proud of yourself now.

Put a smile on my face
