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

[Bicnod]

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

Ah this is the most wonderful thread!!!

OMG you guys are amazing!! 💖

Just ordered tattyratty!

I hope you love it Flofflemama
All of Helen Cooper's books are wonderful. So glad your DD has a replacement.

@flofflemama with my first son, we bought his favourite teddy abroad so couldn't get a replacement. Whenever he left the house (on holiday) he wore a Tshirt with 'I belong to ....... if found see inside' and inside Tshirt ' if found please return to (house number and postcode). Thank you' maybe worth making him something like that or easier still getting a luggage tag for him to wear on outings just in case.

Well done @bonkerz, @bicnod! And welcome @flofflemama!

Merry Christmas and a floffely New Year, one and all!
