[TenLordsaLapin]

For reasons explained in the old thread here, please can we use this one now? Thank you

thankyou to the xmasflowerfairy from the OJ household see profile picture for lovely flowers. i keep grinning at them

They are lovely OJ and I am so pleased you like them? there?s a pic on my profile of what they should look like when they open.

Thank you so much for my flowers Christmas Flower Fairy!

What a very lovely surprise - and actually much nicer to receive so unexpectedly after Christmas!

Thank you thank you! Happy New Year!

Very happy they arrived HM ? Happy New Year to you and your family too.

It really was a lovely surprise - thank you! They're really gorgeous - and chocs too! [fspoilt]

I'm lovin this whole flower fairy thing!

I sent some presents through amazon.co.uk to a MNer(through littlelapin). When the order went through, I sent a copy to littlelapin & another email when amazon confirmed shipment but never heard from her or the MNer. I feel a bit hurt. An acknowledgement that the gifts were received would have been the minimum, don't you agree?

Xmasfortunecookie - I am in exactly the same position as I sent 2 gifts through Amazon but have no idea whether they have been received. Would love to know for my own peace of mind otherwise obviously I can chase Amazon about it.

Ask LL - She will chase it up via email for you

From what I know of LL through her posts, she'd be mortified if she knew about this.

Must've slipped her notice but would still appreciate knowing.

LL has had intermittent internet problems.

Also... she doesn't tend to know the RL names of many of the givers and/or receivers. Please bear in mind that she's had a mammoth task in co-ordinating all of this and I'm sure when she's had time she will come back to you.

Have you checked through the thread to see if your receiver has received them yet?

btw... I was getting ready to send out a search party for you! DT1 is now outgrowing (or has outgrown) those lovely outfits you sent her. I still manage to squeeze her into a couple though!

I have e-mailed LL already to check if the receiver has received the gifts and I fully appreciate what a huge task she took on and has done wonders with.

I am just asking the receiver, if she is reading this, to confirm she received the gifts

ceebee... didn't mean to sound rude. Typing whilst doing other things.

my ds received some fantastic board games from a very kind MN but i have already been on this thread to say A MASSIVE thank you so it can't be me!! lol

ceebee74 - I thought your lady was going to post on this thread but she must have been delayed. She has emailed me to say that the parcel from Amazon was received and she is incredibly grateful and pleased with it! I shall remove the identifying details and forward her email to you.

xmasfortunecookie - I did not reply to your email of the 20th December telling me that the order had been sent as I assumed it was just a courtesy on your part. I would have preferred that you had emailed me personally to tell me that your person had not received her parcel rather than just posting on here. Sadly I do not have time to check this thread and see if all 178 recipients have posted. Now I see your complaint, I will of course email the person concerned to check if she has received anything.

On Xmas Day i opened the box from a mumsnetter and rcvd fab girls clothes for age 3-4 yrs old but sadly they will fit my Niece as my 3.3yrs old DD is size age 4-5 as she is soo tall for her age.

thanks again and they are so lovely especially the Ladybird Denim dress - i want one too!! xx

I thought the whole point of the secret santa thing was to be secret???

If you are concerned about non-delivery then surely please deal with llapin direct- this is not a thread to make people feel bad, they may not be on here regularly /at the moment

I thought the point of giving was just that.. to give. Not needing recognition for doing so

can i just say thankyou so much to lapin for undertaking this massive feat, you are amazing and thankyou for my very lovely flowers and chocolates and the ocado shopping too they made us very happy.

But then LL has only asked people about 80 times to email her directly- that can't surely be enough times for people to follow her request can it?

Exactly CSS!

It's ok, I know it's frustrating to send stuff and not know if it's been received. Bloody post! Maybe we should do this in April or something
