A few people have asked me how they should thank the person who sent them something - can I suggest you post on here? Namechange if you want to remain anonymous, and remember that your donor won't know your MN name anyway - so maybe give some clues (ie "thank you for the lego and the chocolate")

Oh jolly good, that parcel arrived very quickly TTT and I am glad it got to you safely. The clothes were just a last minute addition, ones that we never got around to using for ds so I thought worth sending on just in case you could use them.

I really liked the photo hanger myself and hope your dd is pleased with it, and that you all have a super Christmas.

Bit worried that the parcel I posted on the 7th hasn't arrived yet. I posted it to someone in Essex with two 8yo dd's and a ds. There are some things in a Hasbro box. If anyone has received it could they say on here please before I start hassling Royal Mail? Ta.

TheYoungVisiturkeyandstuffing · 15/12/2007 21:05

merrylissiemas you are very welcome!! I think it must be my parcel although I was told you had a DD...? Maybe I mis-read the email!

Assuming it IS me, I should mention - the box isn't sweeties, it's a fuzzy-felt toy sweet shop - not real sweeties.

PaperChain · 15/12/2007 21:23

TenLordsaLapin · 15/12/2007 21:30

Argh TheYoungVisiter, that is my fault, I have just checked and I DID type DD sorry lissie and TYV!

HBJ, I have emailed your person - she is already on this thread but I don't know if she is thanking you!

TheYoungVisiturkeyandstuffing · 15/12/2007 21:34

oh well! My DS has the same book and loves it so it's not very girly - good thing I didn't get clothes!

TheYoungVisiturkeyandstuffing · 15/12/2007 21:35

btw was there a DVD in there Lissie? Suddenly wondering if I forgot to put it in the parcel - gulp...

WhenScoobyGotStuckUpTheChimney · 15/12/2007 23:34

Yes thats fine, it was dd's presents wrapped in pink paper & a present for the mumsnetter with a card

SmileyThanks · 16/12/2007 10:02

Just a big, big thank you to whoever sent the big box through Parcelforce. It is nice to know people care.
It contained puzzles, a teddy bear, and a lovely v-tech kissing teddy. Also the packets of white chocolate buttons. Yummy- no really LO will get them- of course she has to share!!
Thank you again.

Bocohohoho · 16/12/2007 10:07

Lapin sorry to pester again but any idea if my parcel arrived where it was going? I posted it 12 days ago first class and not seen any mention on here.

TenLordsaLapin · 16/12/2007 10:13

I'll check Boco. Am having rather massive PC problems at the moment, and I'm about to disassemble my laptop to add some more memory... so either I will be back all shiny in an hour, or I'll be back, swearing and using DH's laptop. Wish me luck!
