Aaaagh Chou Chou Mummy Make Me Better HAS NOT TURNED UP

[moodlumthehoodlum]

Its all dd wanted from Father Christmas, so I planned early and got dh's idle stepmother to send it from America, and despite having it in November, she didn't send it until the 18th December. Unsurprisingly, it hasn't turned up.

DD is only three, its her first Christmas really believing in Father Christmas, and its all she wants.

There is no immediate solution is there?

Argos sell them.

So do Tesco's and ToysRUs - good luck!

Thank you.

DH went there this morning and couldn't get one.

whereare you?

I'll have to brave Toys R Us.

What a thought.

Thank you!

Call them first! It's not worth braving the traffic and queues if they don't have any.

Hope you get one in time.

Warwickshire. Stratford Argos didn't have them, but will try Coventry Toys R Us.

She hasn't mentioned it for a few days. Can I get away with Santa doing a late delivery? I suppose it depends how late. Late next week won't wash I think.
