I'd just like to say a very heartfelt, and massive thank you to MNHQ - in particular the lovely AnnMumsnetMNHQ
- for explaining to Sony that my DS ( aka Nemo ) is poorly at the moment, with very painful glue ear, meaning that we wouldn't be able to make the screening of Cloudy With A Chance Of Meatballs 2, so I asked if the tickets we'd won, could please be passed on.
I then had a reply from AnnMumsnet asking for Nemo's name and address, which I duly gave.
This morning, a GIANT package arrived for him!
Inside was a HUGE 'Barry The Strawberry' soft toy, a digital watch, fridge magnets, two t-shirts, one of which is reversible, 4 scented erasers, and a lovely letter from 'Barry' that I've written out below.
"Hello Nemo!
My name is Barry and I am a very special strawberry.
I made some brilliant new friends in Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs 2: there's my best buddy Flint Lockwood....he invents amazing things! And all of Flint's pals - Sam Sparks....Brant....Manny... and of course STEEEEEEVE the monkey!!
They all thought that I should come and meet you - so, here I am! And they gave me some gifts to give to you - I hope you like them!
I hear you really liked our first film so I'm really looking forward to being your friend.
A-wooooooooooooooooooooooooo!
Barry x"
How lovely is that? :)
A little act of kindness goes a very long way. Thank you Sony and Mumsnet :) xxx
