To harness the power of Mumsnet to make a little girl's Christmas...

Posting here for traffic because I am clearly not BU

My friend's DD has lost her beloved Floffel. Floffel is her seal cuddly toy from babyhood and will never be found again as Floffel was lost overseas.

Friend's DD has written to Father Christmas asking for Floffel back. Nothing else on the list - just Floffel.

They don't effing make Floffel anymore

Friend's DD as been through the wringer lately - can't go into details as would be outing but suffice to say she could really really do with a boost.

Please please please wonderful people of Mumsnet - if you happen to have an Aurora Naturally seal like the one in the photo hanging around your house (it's flannel not plush apparently and has the word 'naturally' on its bum) that you'd be willing to sell/give away it would truly honestly make this little girl's Christmas.

TIA

@Bonkerz aaaaaaaaaaaagh!!!! This is amazing!!! I've PMd you. Thank you thank you thank you!!!

@ImMeMe for you too. Would be fab if you could still check just in case, but only if it's not a monumental hassle. I'm thinking a back up floffel would be no bad thing!!!!

I'm going to be grinning all day now

Hooray for Floffel! Well done!

Another one with teary eyes. Fantastic that Floffel was off on holiday at Bonkers house . Welshmaenad what a lovely photo.

You lot are an amazing bunch, all pitching in to rescue Floffel.

Just read this entire thread through watery eyes! Hurrah for Christmas miracles!!

How wonderful! I've got leaky eyes reading this. You are all awesome

This thread is amazing, how wonderful Mumsnet is!

I am far to late to this thread but want to join in for festive updates of joy!!!

Well done mumsnet, what a wonderful place this is!

Awww this has made my day (and I was up early with a sore throat)

DD3 has a rabbit and he was lost a few times over the years thankfully always found again but oh I know the heartache.

Love seeing things like this. Happy ending. Good stuff out of you Bonkerz

Oh this is so lovely to read....i bet that little girl is going to be over the moon

Hurrah!!! Well done everybody.

😍😍😍😍😍😍😍

Wow. What an amazing thread filled with amazing people. So much love for floffel. I love a happy ending

Love this thread

I luffs MN

All parcelled. Off to post office at9am. First class recorded on its way.

I skipped to the end just to see if a replacement Floffel was found because I couldn't bear to read further than page 1 otherwise.

Going to read the whole thing now.

Hooray!

If anyone is good at photoshop could they do pics of Floffel in various places around the world to tell the story of it's travels while it's been missing?

Lovely news!!!!! He needs a holiday postcard with him all wrapped up.

How good would it be if Floffel hadn't been lost, but had gone to rescue her twin sister, missing since birth.

Am all teary. How fab.

I can - if the OP wants to PM me I'll give them an email address they can send the photos to. Let me know OP what countries your friend's DD would like.
