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

@dustarr73 😂😂😂

I feel ill and hormonal today. That's why I have a lump in my throat.

Oh my word, so tearful rn. Well done all involved, I can't wait to hear about her reaction after Christmas :3

I am so checking back here on Christmas Day :) Well done vipers.

Oh my word, this is so amazing. Placemarking for Christmas Day

bicnod sorry if I missed it ... replacement Floffel has arrived?

Thanks, lovely to hear :)

Thanks for everyone's lovely good wishes. Floffle survived his wash and is ready to be delivered Christmas Day...meanwhile she received this letter via our magical advent calendar this morning...exciting!

that is gorgeous!

Awww, love the letter!

Oh that is brilliant! My DD sent a pleading letter to Father Christmas after her beanie cat was washed by Grandma and the inside went mouldy (it stunk!) ...
She also sent said toy in parcel along with letter to the North Pole ... she got a lovely reply back signed by the man himself and her "wow it's just like new" toy returned after a few weeks. He's a miracle worker really!

Love the letter

This thread just keeps on giving.

Could he have a mini suitcase or haversack round his fins with small presents for her inside from his travels? And a tiny tiny diary with where's he's been?

Overinvested, moi?

Wow can't wait for xmas update

Floffles trip home needs to be made into a feel good Christmas film for next year!

Well, there goes my mascara!! 😭

Lovely, lovely thread. I can't wait now for the big Christmas reunion. 😍

Hands tissues and mince pies all round. And a wee 🍸 for later.

What a lovely thread, brings a tear to the eye 👁‍🗨

Oh what a lovely ending! I'm sure that little girl's face will be priceless on Christmas morning

Well, I kept it together until the letter. WAAIIIILLL!!

Floffle needs to head a xmas ad next year!!

@dustarr73, I was imagining Mumsnetters all over the world like this...

Nervousrex you wi , hes certainly better on the eyes

No, we're not crying! Just chopping onions...

We're moving this wonderful thread over to the hall of fame because, well, it's pretty fantastic and sums up what Mumsnet is all about.
