You're more than welcome, NAB. I hope you enjoy treating yourself to something too. xxx

LISSIE

You are more than welcome

The duvet boot thingies were a bit tongue-in-cheek but I had to get them when I saw they plug into the computer USB port . They should be standard issue to all MNers!

That sounds like a lovely use for the journal, I saw that thread about your appointment and will have everything crossed for you.

I really do hope you have a wonderful christmas and an even more wonderful 2008.

(sorry you cried though, hope it was in a good way

Merry christmas lovely xxx

opurple · 18/12/2007 22:47

when posting a thanks could you add something about the contents, so if the sender wished to remain anonymous they will still know it arrived in one piece? thanks! (waiting to see if mine ever arrived!)

Jas · 18/12/2007 23:44

Thankyou C, for the lovely box of goodies I recieved today, including books chocs and toys for all three of my dc......are the pesents wrapped in gold/cream paper with mumsnet stickers for me???? I'm resisting the temptation to open them to see, so if they are for the children, please let me know so I don't look too stupid opening them on Christmas day!

JeremyVile · 18/12/2007 23:46

Thank you so much to the lovely mumsnetter who sent a DHL box to us which arrived this morning.

DS1 will love the Bumblebee Transformer, it is his favourite one. He will be so excited on Christmas morning, Thank you.
DS2 will love Iggle piggle, he loves the In the Night Garden. You have given them both exactly what they would like, maybe you are Mrs Claus

I am going to wrap the chocolates and the bath things up, so the boys will see that Santa has given mommy & daddy a gift too. Thank you Again and have a lovely Christmas

TimeForMe · 19/12/2007 10:53

Could I say a massive THANK YOU to the lovely Mumsnetter who has sent me a wonderful aromatherpy set, uplifting, (just what the doctor ordered!) Some fantastic bath crystals and a lovely box of Bendicks chocolates all off which were beautifully gift boxed.

Thank you so much! It was such a lovely surprise and, even though I don't know you, have never met you, you have made me feel so special. It came just at the right time

Sending you, whoever you are, lots of love and best wishes for the happiest Christmas ever XXX

DanJARMouse · 19/12/2007 11:59

The presents for the girls are very good thank you - have been looknig for fuzzy felt for DD1 for ages! THe bath toy will be very welcomed by DD2 - a true water baby!

The teddies are so so cute, the girls have stole them already so Daniel will have lucked out, but at 3 weeks old im sure he doesnt care!

THANK YOU SO MUCH.

Mumsnetters really do amaze me!

NAB3littlemonkeys · 19/12/2007 12:49

I am worried my secret santa has missed my message so thank you again to the family who sent my DD some Princess things.

Very kind and thoughtful.

vio · 19/12/2007 13:35

FG From Scotland::::

I opened the parcel from you which arrived this morning and to say I am overwhelmed is an understatement!!

I was so chuffed with the books for my children and then opened what I thought were Xmas cards.... The Bodyshop gift card has made dd1's day She is going shopping tomorrow The M&S vouchers and gift card are extremely generous and I really don't know what to say apart from THANK YOU

Dh is also overwhelmed at the kindness of mumsnetters and can't quite get his head around the fact that mums/dads who mainly talk on the internet only are so thoughtful and kind to each other usually without ever meeting them

We are yet to try the gorgeous looking home made goodies and are saving them for after dinner

The fact that you put your time and effort into cooking for us is amazing and you have really made my Christmas.

Thank you so much xx

OverwhelmedMum xxxx

OverwhelmedMum · 19/12/2007 16:12

And I forgot the game for the children and that you even included supplies to wrap it all in [smile xx

snowfunwhenyoureknackered · 19/12/2007 16:18

To Frances and tiredemma

I don't know if you have both seen my posts thanking you both for the very kind parcels you sent to us, I have been checking this thread but aren't sure if you both know how grateful we are for your really kind thoughts!

if this is the first time you have both seen this - a big big thank you for your generosity!

Just received a beautiful personalised Christmas card from a lady who I sent parcels to for her little girl & little boy. She explained that she doesn't have internet access at the mo but wanted to let me know the gifts had arrived. The card was gorgeous & really made my day - I'll be putting it in my keepsake box.

I don't know who she is but it sounds as if she & her family are having an awful time just now. I hope they have a happy Christmas & that things go much better for them in 2008.
