Welcome to the 2009 MN Christmas Appeal Thankyou Thread

First of all thank you very much to my good friend NormaStanlelFletcher for organising the whole thing

Each mumsnetter that receives a parcel will see a number printed on it.

When adding to this thread could you all please mention the number so that the sender knows for definite it was their parcel.

Thank to MNHQ for helping norma with this mammoth task.

A Very Happy Christmas to you all

magic that is so very kind but i would hope they go to actual nominees there are many more mners more deserving , i hope mnhq get this sorted soon

magicOC · 14/01/2010 22:34

Lilyloo - I hope so too, but, i'll keep your DD in mind if it all goes pear shaped ok.

Oh and your earlier post made me feel

Poor litle doggie isn't homeless or unloved i'm just too busy to take him for walkies .

magicOC · 14/01/2010 22:35

He comes with his own passport too ready to go off on his travels

Lilyloo · 14/01/2010 22:37

ok my dd2 will be 2 on Monday and she really does love anything dog related so we have good home waiting in the wings

magicOC · 14/01/2010 22:41

Let me have your details of where to send and she can have it as an extra birthday pressie

I have quite a bit put by for the appeal so one little doggie missing from the bag wont make a difference.

You can cat me.

BelleDeChocolateFluffyBunny · 14/01/2010 23:02

Hi

(It's fluffyforlifenotjustforxmas)

I've not heard anything from MNHQ yet.

magicOC · 14/01/2010 23:20

Thanks or up-date Belle

Was about to call you FluffyBelle

Didn't want to confuse tho lol

BelleDeChocolateFluffyBunny · 14/01/2010 23:36

I didn't know there was another fluffy on here until I saw a thread last night. The name had to o to save confusion, ds insisted I used fluffybunny in there somewhere so you all know who I am.

I will keep on at them, I do feel a tad nagging though as I should have recieved a gift but have not. I don't feel like it's my place to do this really so I shall un-nominate myself (if this makes sense).

cherrymonster · 15/01/2010 09:22

did anyone want the blankets i posted about?

ChilloSTOPFOLLOWINGMEhippi · 15/01/2010 09:35

Could you put them in the for free section, cherrymonster. I'm sure someone would be very glad to have them.

09406 · 15/01/2010 11:54

09406 Thank you thank you thank you so very much for the huge box of gifts that have just arrived for the children and I. So very very generous, kind and thoughtful. The children will love the gifts and DH and I will enjoy the chocolate and spending the gift card. Thank you so much.

09406 · 15/01/2010 11:55

And also the dvd, so sorry to miss that out. I am still in pleasant . The children will enjoy that tomorrow when they come home. Thank you so very much.

NewYearNewKnickers0nMaHead · 15/01/2010 17:58

Cherry, could I possibly have the buzz one and a princess one please? Quite happy to pay for them of course.

I am CATTALBE.

cherrymonster · 15/01/2010 18:05

knickers, i dont have cat sweetie, but you can email me on [email protected]
will gladly send them to you

TheLadyEvenstar · 15/01/2010 18:16

did anyone have me as a match? I know i was nominated and i sent my addy and dc's ages, likes and dislikes...but i never heard/recieved anything....

SORRY for asking......i just wondered because the upstairs flat have a history of taking my post....and i never see it again.

Hulababy · 15/01/2010 20:16

I only had a real name and an address, no MN name, so not sure who it was I sent too.

They have 4 children I believe, but I was given a match for a 6y child.

TheLadyEvenstar · 15/01/2010 20:22

I have 2 DS's.DS1 is 11 and DS2 is 2.....

i know i probably sound cheeky, i just really want to make sure it hasn't gone to the upstairs flat.

BelleDeChocolateFluffyBunny · 15/01/2010 20:27

Is it possible for all those who have yet to hear if their gifts have been recieved to give the first half of the first line of the address so the reciever can recognise it IYSWIM? So 47 Smith Street, Silly town is just Smith? The sender can locate the recipient then to make sure it's been recieved.

liahgenisuptheduff · 15/01/2010 20:37

dontpanic I am so glad your dd's liked the books. I am so sorry, I wasn't told you had a ds too.

I think it was cos I said what I could give and was matched that way, I could have included your ds though. bless him. How old is he?

BelleDeChocolateFluffyBunny · 15/01/2010 20:39

Hi liahgenis.

Somethings been sent in the post to dontpanics ds, it should get there in a few days

liahgenisuptheduff · 15/01/2010 20:40

belle oh good.

JeremyVile · 15/01/2010 20:45

Liahgen - dont feel bad, you did a lovely thing.
Think dontpanic just phrased it badly?

BelleDeChocolateFluffyBunny · 15/01/2010 20:46

Wink Smile

DontPanicImRegular · 15/01/2010 21:13

Liahgen the books are fantastic the girls love them, I'm reading them every day at the moment to the children obviously DS is being sent something which is an amazingly kind gesture from another total stranger.

JeremyVile - Nothing was phrased badly. I said exactly what I wanted to say. So save your for somewhere that it is really needed. Thank you.

magicOC · 15/01/2010 22:46

Lilyloo - one doggie setting out for a long walk tomorrow
