Ref 1311

Thank you so much for the parcel which arrived today. Your kindness and generosity is very much appreciated. Wishing you a very Happy Christmas.

Ref 1310 and 1313

A huge thank you from the bottom of my heart to my wonderful, generous, kind Secret Santas. You cannot know how much it means to me. You have made a difficult Christmas so much better and I am very grateful.

Postie was a bit puzzled by the address label. I could see he was dying to ask what a Mumsnetter was!

Did my secret santa get my earlier message? I received a WHSmith voucher and a Tesco voucher with the ref 1801 on the envelope - thank you so much! I did leave a message earlier in the thread but I just wanted to make sure you got it because I am very very grateful to you indeed! You've just made a very stressful time less so!

1313 Glad it arrived safely. Hope you have a fantastic Christmas .

I heart you too TooT Happy Christmas

I am so thrilled with my pretties.........and SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO pleased you seen my joy.

I am also very of your talent!!!!

You are welcome gratefulmum, have a lovely xmas xx

ThankyoufromThurso - so glad you liked your candle and bath stuff! I knew so little about you I had no idea what to get. I did get you a box of chocolate seashells too but the post office had run out of boxes and had no bigger envelopes and I coudn't fit them in. I am now going to give them to my granny as I am sure she will enjoy them

How's the weather all the way up there?

Ref 2101 and 2102

NG3 5JW

I have received three parcels!! Thankyou so so much. Lovely toys for my ds - just right and he is obsessed with bricks especially, (putting them inside everything and taking them out again); my FAVOURITE body wash and body butter (pampering session later, chocolates...I am a bit overwhelmed.
It's Christmas come early in my living room!

How very very kind and thoughtful of you lovely lovely people. MN was my total life-saver when h vanished on us in the summer and xmas is going to be hard to get through I fear. But this has cheered me up loads!

To know we have been thought about by strangers is very poignant and has caused a few tears. Smiling tears.

Many thanks to you both

There was no ref code on NG3 but I hope you recognise yourself from the post-code.

Hugs hugs
I love MN and next year I hope I will be sending people secret santa gifts to give something back to the community of etheral angels who have got ME through.

LOL about the chocolates!!! I'm very pleased they are going to a good cause though

Amazoniancracker you weren't supposed to open the present until the 25th!!! I'm assuming both parcels arrived that I sent, I may have got muddled up with the ref number, it was supposed to be 2101 on both parcels, but Ds2 was wittering away in my ear!
The bricks and the other parcel which included a present for you

oops, meant to namechange!

REF 1901

Thank you so so much!!! The box of toys are just amazing. I am so delighted to be able to wrap those up to give to my DS on Christmas day. I am just amazed by this whole appeal thing. I had no idea it was even happening. I can't believe how nice people are.

I am so touched that someone who doesn't even know me would be so generous. It's brought tears to my eyes and made me feel very Christmasy indeed.

It's been a hard year and this is such a lovely way to end it.

amazoniancracker - the parcel from 'NG35JW' is from me, I thought I put the ref no. on which was 2102. I sent you the stuff that saltiresaysSANTA didn't if that makes sense. Hope that your ds likes the present and you enjoy the chocs!

Happy Christmas! xx

Also the nappies you used to pack it with will be really handy! Every penny counts for us right now so nappies are ace!

Ref 1006 Just a quick post to let you know it has been received Thankyou....I haven't opened it as I am surrounded by very nosy children, but will be back later to say a proper thanks

ref 1506

Flame, I heart you! Thank you so much. How did you know DS is bordering on obsessive when it come to knights and will think he has died and gone to heaven when he opens the present you sent!

I am tempted to keep the astronaught icecream for myself!

Thank you x

REF 1802

THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!

am very teary eyed and hugely grateful

I am utterly over whelmed at your generosity - was at the Gift Voucher

DS LOVES Thomas - and all the crafty stuff is fabbola

Thanks also for my package - am saving it all for ME

am truly thrilled and utterly delighted

i am staggered by the wonderful kindness of "strangers"

wishing you and your family a wonderful Xmas and a new year

xxxxx

Oh yay!

I feel I should mention that the Knight thingy was originally from ChocolateTeapot - she gave it to me a couple of years back when I was rummaging through her toys she was parting with , so it has now been loved by 3 MN children

(I was the same with the icecream )

I decided to open the pressies this morning as I had a bad night last night..on top of ds being up since 4am! (Very unusual for him to wake up though)

So decided to TREAT myself. It's been a wonderful morning...have even had early glass of wine to mark the occasion. Feeling very warm, loved and christmassy. This is such a great idea.

Hugs and more hugs to you

That's ok then.
Hope you have fab Christmas! Will be thinking of you and your Ds on Christmas morning
