Mumsnet Secret Santa Thank You Thread. Christmas 2011.

[KnottyLocks]

I've been asked by RebeccaMumsnet to start this thread.

A big thanks to all at MNHQ for arranging this. You little stars!

When posting thanks, please give the Santa number that should be on your gift so that people can see that their gifts have arrived. Many thanks.

My :
A parcel from a very generous Santa has arrived: a wonderful Playmobil advent calendar to get our family in the mood for Christmas. I think I'm probably more excited about it than my boys .
Thank you so much to the lovely person who nominated me - I am deeply, deeply touched by your kind thoughts.
And thank you so very much to my lovely Santa638. We will all enjoy your gift enormously: a perfect choice . Wishing you and all your loved ones a very Merry Christmas, and a peaceful and loving 2012.

Moi?

Do you need a tissue for that, Chaos?

I've just wrapped the gorgeous presents I got this year from MNHQ with the remains of the lovely wrapping paper and tags I got last year from an MN Secret Santa

(though MNHQ making me wrap presents this early this is unheard of - but I have absolutely no where to hide a box that big without it being spotted unless it's wrapped

Thank you 103120! And thank you for whoever nominated us!
I can't believe the huge box of stuff and the vouchers are very much needed! You have made my Xmas. Thank you so much x

There aren't enough words to say thank you to 12298....just received a parcel with a beautifully wrapped present inside that smells devine - I will NOT be opening it before Xmas Day. Also the most beautiful tin of biscuits - but more beautiful than the biscuits, on the front on the tin it has two butterflies. Whenever I see butterflies I think of two of my four sons who sadly died. I was feeling low today and kept asking my lads to let me know they are around.....then the parcel came

Your generosity and thoughtfulness are amazing - I hope you, and your family, have an amazing Christmas and a happy, healthy and prosperous New Year. Thanks also to the person who nominated me. I am very grateful xxxx

Thank you xx

I don't know if one's a secret Santa (cos there's no number), but I just received a lovely package from MNHQ today!
A lovely "First Christmas teddy bear and the MN Guide to Babies

It's lovely, thank you very, very much :):)

Dear Lovely Recipient 6071

I hope you see this - I have sent your parcel today and the elves at Royal Mail assure me that the last posting date for it to get to you all the way over there is next Monday, so I hope that it reaches you in time for Christmas.

Merry Christmas to you all

Shabs I could not be more pleased that my gift went to you. I'm so glad you like it xxx

Glad you got it SanTEEClaus.
A few other things i sent at the same time went astray and i was worried yours had!

The MN magic is at work, DP has a 2nd interview tomorrow morning which means I shall have to collect my parcel in my lunch break

Amazing thread. Well done to everyone who sent gifts etc.

I emailed ages ago to say I'd like to be a sender santa but never heard back. Then promptly forgot (as I'm a forgetful numpty). Only just seen the thread today.

Is it too late to be allocated someone to buy for? Don't mind what I send (vouchers/pressies - I can do whatever people prefer). I don't have anyone in mind to nominate.

I'm one of the serial lurkers but do let me know if there's anyone left on the list, to send something to.

A very Happy Christmas to all.

Thank you again, AFFKW! Now I just have to decide what to buy!

In fairy tales, a fairy godmother has magical powers! I have my own fairy god mother, she has magic'd up a Christmas tree, decorations and lights! I can never thank you enough, I will never forget your kindness and I will never forget how you have made my baby's first Christmas really special at a time when we are so busy trying to save our business and the roof over our heads we hadn't even thought about Christmas trees and decorations!! I am so very blessed and I can't write anymore because I can't actually see through the tears! Thank you to MY fairy godmother xxx

thank you very much to whoever nominated me and to whoever sent the present!dd loves her mini boden hat and scarf (I love it too!)

Oh nickel, crying now....so lovely of MNHQ

marking place as sending mine tomorrow.

Just to say that my gift was posted on Tuesday so I'm keeping my eyes open to check that it's arrived safely.

It's lovely to see this all unfolding again - well done MNHQ

thankyou to santa3556 and 11156. Such a welcome surprise after a difficult day. Although how you kept Johnny Depp still while you wrapped him I will never know ....

Another here watching and reading this super thread

My parcel was sent to 6147 last Friday and i hope it has arrived safely

Huge thanks to MNHQ

To 1456118, not only did you provide a present for my son, you have invested in our future. Once my studies have ended, I hope to be in a position to pass it on. In my future career when I look to that book for guidance, I will think of you and your generosity. Thank you so much for the gifts you have given us.

sniff Dione. How are you? It's been ages...well, just about a year!
