Is it more likely that if you've not received emails before that you might not have received them this time, or am I just not on the list? LOL.

DCs are very excited, although they often get normal porridge with Nutella in it, so not like its totally unheard of in our house, but they insist on putting heaps of choc spread in coz "it doesn't taste of anything"!

Will be interesting to see if this actually tastes chocolatey or is just slightly brown porridge.

Yum we'll be having chocolate porridge soon, thanks Mumsnet and Quakers Oats :)

TheOtherHelenMumsnet · 07/02/2012 10:17

Grownup - there was a technical fault with our mass emailing system which meant that lots of you didn't get my email yesterday - you were in that part of the list - so you have been selected and you should have got my email just now - let me know if not!

AndiMac · 07/02/2012 11:07

I got an email, but have no idea where to send my details. I would have thought that would have been included in the email?

TheOtherHelenMumsnet · 07/02/2012 11:14

AndiMac - no need to send your details anywhere - when you signed up to take part you gave us your address so the porridge should be on its way to you now. I'll then email you when we want you to add your feedback.

Yay I'm in. They must be sending out a lot of porridge!

onableakcurioustwistedplanet · 07/02/2012 11:22

Thank you have just got my email. Ds' will be very happy.
Being the nosey person that I am MNHQ I was wondering if you had ever considered when you send out emails of giving us an idea of how many people applied and how the lucky people were chosen (just out of the hat,reasons they had written etc.) and also when it comes to the reviews how many people actually do write one.

AndiMac · 07/02/2012 11:27

Ah, sorry, misread the mail. Thanks!

MissBerta · 07/02/2012 11:58

Fankoo! At the moment we are trying the White choc & raspberry, golden syrup, blueberry & apple and honey & almond oatso simples, we shall take great delight in testing this one and giving our verdict!
