TinselTrace2, you are more than welcome

Have a good Christmas and hoping that 2008 is a little brighter for you all

omg - I just received a huge bunch of John Lewis white roses with a vase!!!!!!!!!!

They are beautiful. Thank you so much whoever my secret santa was. Perfect timing. I've just had a fairly tough 2 weeks of absolutely no sleep whatsoever with my new baby. Didn't answer the door to the deliveryman as I was bathing her cos she'd just been sick all over us both!

What a lovely surprise - not sure I deserve them but I can't thank you enough anyway.

Just want to say a big thank you to the mumsnetter who sent my DD's a £15 woolies giftcard...It arrived this morning and brought tears to my eyes(have been so emotional lately...blame the hormones)

so once again a huge thank you for the generosity mumsnetters have shown

merry xmas to all hope you have a nice one I know I certainly will now

mm22bys · 21/12/2007 11:26

I wanted to thank the MNer for the Guy Lian chocolates, and the farm set with the blue "road" - DS1 LOVES it, and he has already spent so many hours playing with it.

The chocolates were just so scrummy, guess who ate them all?

It really is hugely appreciated, and thanks from the bottom of my heart.

Merry Christmas to you and your family, and a brillant New Year too!

GreedyGecko · 21/12/2007 11:27

A big thank you to J and D Mom. Received the parcel yesterday (had to jump out of my car to catch the deliery man ). Thanks so much for the books, jigsaw puzzles, clothes and other bits, theboys will love them. Have a great Christmas.

imdreamingofawhiteKITTYmas · 21/12/2007 11:40

Huge thank you to K from WF4 for the parcel that arrived this morning, certainly was not expecting anything. I love the lovely Christmas sack and the beautifully wrapped presents, unfortunately they won't be under the tree to the 24th as DD2 would destroy them in about 2 seconds flat.

Thank you again for your kindness

OhComeLetUsADiorHim · 21/12/2007 12:05

Thanks to the Norman family for their parcel. It was lovely and ds will adore all the things! The PO lost the parcel for a week, so I apologise for not thanking you before.

nottinghamsecretsanta · 21/12/2007 12:15

Nottinghamsecretsantareceiver, you are so welcome, it has given me and DD so much pleasure putting the parcel together for you!

Have a wonderful Christmas

hogwarts · 21/12/2007 12:46

A very big thank you to flamesparrow for my secret santa present. Its the second parcel I have received and I am overwhelmed, thank you so so much.

One thing though, I found a ring in the parcel, looks like it could maybe be your wedding ring? I have emailed Little Lapin to tell her and see if she can pass me on your address and I will return it, or there is a return address on the parcel, shall I send it there? I can imagine the worry if you have lost the ring and want to get it back to you as soon as possible.

FlamesparodyOfAChristmasName · 21/12/2007 13:06

Oh you wonderful woman Hogwarts! It IS my wedding ring - you have no idea how happy you have made me.

My email is flamesparrow at hotmail dot com.

I will send you the money to send it recorded delivery

silkcushion · 21/12/2007 13:37

i don't believe it!!!

Postman has just arrived with another secret santa parcel. Beautifully wrapped in white paper with snowflakes on and a blue ribbon. Also a lovely card - feeling quite tearful now.

Will put pressie under the tree.

thank you so very much to my secret santa/s
