Mummycan I am P. Not here yet. Will let you know when it is. Thank You

IamBlossom · 05/12/2006 10:12

Fattie Mumma, please let me know if you don't get it, and I will chase them up.
Not a fantastic person at all, fair share of flaws actually , but am very happy to be helping you at Christmas time.

The biggest THANK YOU to (real name begins with) F who sent me M&S vouchers. I can?t begin to explain just how much this means to me (K) and my son H (in Leeds)
I?m sitting here with a mixture of feelings, overwhelming gratitude and excitement to name but two.
I can now buy H some real treats to wrap up but the big difference this generosity has made is that I can now let H have the little xmas party he has been begging for.
School breaks can be pretty lonely for H as we don?t live near any of his friends ? a party will mean we can invite some of his friends and I just know H will get so much enjoyment from setting the table with party snacks.

Thank you F! ..and thank you to the mumsnetter who nominated me and thank you soapy?.thank you

OMG, i just answered the door to DHL, who have left a hige heavey parcel. I have had a quick peek, and there are some lovely books in there, but i havent dug right down yet. thank you ever so much C, and thank you for signing up to the donor register. it means an awful lot to us.

OverwhelmedByAllThis · 05/12/2006 11:08

I am sat looking at a wonderful magic kit and an enormous remote control toy that my boys are going to adore. Thank you so much blossom. I am gobsmacked.

My postman has started asking me what 'this Mumsnet lark' is. He keeps presenting me with parcels marked with the name of this mysterious club and has become used to my expression of surprise

I love this place and all you wonderful people.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

carnation · 05/12/2006 11:18

I can not believe the great genorisity of people you have certainly brought back to me the true meaning of Christmas. There are lots of people in need in the world and you do not tend to think of yourself in that way. But when you get an unexpected gift it makes you realise how much you really needed it. So thankyou to Frances for the vouchers. I will spend it on christmas treats for me and my family. I have never been able to buy posh food before!!!! I wish everyone love and kindness filled with christmas cheer.

What can I say??? Thank you soooo much, what a wonderful surprise when I opened your package this morning! Thank you so much!

You left a little something inside by mistake though - Thomas "It's Great to Be an Engine". Poor Thomas, he looks a little lonely . I will CAT you so you can let me know your address then I can post him back to you!!

Mr Postie knocked on my door this morning!

A huge thank you to WWW for the gifts. Amelia will adore the fairy skirt, she loves dressing up and I cannot wait to see her tottering around in it!!! As for the football and the whoopee cushion, my little man will have soooo much fun with those!LOL.

I cannot thank you enough for your kindness. I am all emotional again!!! I felt I was just getting back on my feet but I have just had further reports and letters about her therapy ( or should we say lack of it!) and all my paperwork for the tribunal has been copied and returned to me today!!!! It seems fighting will constantly be a part of our lives now, but somehow I can't let it take over again, not like it has done for the last 6 months!!!

Thank you again for making it all seem more bearable with your heartwarming actions!

LunarSeasonsGreetings thank you so much for the lareg box of things, J is gonna absolutely love the books, we was looking at buying him some but unfortunatley run out of money, and they have just started reading the horrid henry books in school so he had put them on his xmas list. H is really into puzzles, he had pinched all the ones that J no longer plays with. Thanks you so much you dont know how the generosity of strangers has helped us hugely this christmas.
