Following on from the thread that started about shoes and escalated to nearly 500 posts and a boden coat Trinty has emailed me back and we have finalised the list of things needed, if people have these things/have sent them could you post on here so I can amend the list and ensure Trinity doesnt get 345 sippy cups but no tights for dd2

Trinity's wish list
Tights - ages 9-10, 4-5/5-6, 2-3/3-4
socks - sizes 6, 8 and 10
sippy cups -
sheets - single/double or kingsize
bedding - single/double/kingsize
clothes 12/14
adult shoes - size 6,
baby clothes for DSS2's May arrival,
towels
forks
asda vouchers,
chick lit
John Grisham
Toys for the dog to chew :-)
Large saucepans (lots of people to feed in that house!!)
Beautiful Boden COat - sorted by fab mumsnetters

If anyone would like to donate funds (we have enough to get Trinity her new coat and a little bit spare) the paypal address is [email protected] and anything we collect now will be sent to Trinity as Asda vouchers to help with Christmas food/bits shop (I asked Trinity how she would prefer the funds spent and this was one of the ideas and she would really appreciate this)

Thankyou all!!

Parcel2Go is a great courier for heavier items. Around £8 when i used them.

Pinkfluffyslippers · 30/10/2009 21:48

EandH - if there's anything that Trinity still needs can you post it up. Am happy to send things if necessary.

Trinity - I've only just found out about your tragic loss - my sincere condolences.

Does DSS gf need some maternity clothes? I've just had DC2 and not planning on any more for a few years yet - would she like the bag?

Mainly size 8-12?

Haunty27 · 30/10/2009 21:56

eandh can you email me on p h e n a 100 @ a o l . c o m

Thanks muchly.

Haunty27 · 30/10/2009 21:57

With Trinity's address that should have been. Doh!

waitingforbedtime · 30/10/2009 22:00

Seeing that toddler cutlery would be useful I'll send the stuff I have (blue train plastic stuff) - I know gecko is a girl but ds eats with pink forks and spoons! hth

bumpybecky · 30/10/2009 22:04

I've attempted to send a paypal payment. Hope it works!

KnottyLocks · 30/10/2009 22:46

Am sending some new children's books, a couple of hand towels and a bath sheet (or 2 if I can find the other one.)

I haven't got one to send, but think a slow cooker may help with the feeding of the masses. Just a thought.

Have an Asda voucher - any good?

Stayingscarygirl · 30/10/2009 22:48

I am sure I can find some chick lit too - will try not to clash with the list posted on Page 1.

Stayingscarygirl · 30/10/2009 22:50

And I've got Monsters Inc, Ice Princess, Madagascar, Garfield 2 and Mr Bean's Holiday - all on dvd. I know that dvds weren't on the list - but Trinity is more than welcome to these if she'd like them.

simpson · 30/10/2009 22:56

slow cooker good idea. Got mine from tesco direct for less than a tenner

Jacksmamwahahaha · 30/10/2009 23:00

I just sent some money via Paypal because I'm in Canada so horrible postage costs and I only have baby boy things anyway... it's not much but I hope it helps.

reservejudgement · 30/10/2009 23:03

eandh can you send me Trinity's address, please?

MissGreatBritain · 30/10/2009 23:07

How do I go about sending money via paypal please?

frakula · 30/10/2009 23:09

I'm sending a load of chick lit tomorrow which I posted on the other thread.

stressed2007 · 30/10/2009 23:10

"unexpected wasabi : i've a pair of adult size 6 suede ankle boots from Dorothy Perkins.. i've barely worn them.
Happy to donate, but i'm absolutely skint and cant afford the postage to send them.
any ideas"

If you really don't need them/will not use them I can pay for the postage for you - do you have a paypal account - how much will postage be and I will send you £ so you can send it.

jennylindinha · 30/10/2009 23:10

Hi, I have a (fairly old but fully working) BT corded phone that is going spare if TR would like it? CAT me the address or else email jennylindinha at hotmail dot co dot uk. Probably got some other things I could send too... HTH

treedeLivingDeadery · 30/10/2009 23:11

My head is failing me - dss2? Please explain, I have a big bag of baby stuff sorted but there is a strong female bias which might prove useless if dss means what I think it does!

BelaLugosiNoir · 30/10/2009 23:13

the dss2 & his gf are expecting but they don't know what sort they're getting yet

2shoescreepingthroughblood · 30/10/2009 23:15

I have cutlery to spare

stressed2007 · 30/10/2009 23:15

The additional list: some clarification please and I will try and help with some of it

Bowls - just china ones?
Plates - just china ones?
Duvets - what sizes needed?
Toddler cutlery
corded phone

What is the difference betwwen the sheet and the bedding on the main list as would like to send some?

maybe this could be added to main list too ?
Thanks

Jacksmamwahahaha · 30/10/2009 23:18

MissGreatBritain, you go to Paypal.com or Paypal.co.uk and go to "Send Money". It's all going to eandh who is going to get it to Trinity. Eandh's email is [email protected], so type in her email address and then yours (if you have a Paypal account - if not, you have to create one first) and then the amount, and there you go. HTH.

treedeLivingDeadery · 30/10/2009 23:19

Ah Haaa - cheers. Will send on then. I have a 50% chance of getting it bob-on!

TrinityHasAVampireRhino · 30/10/2009 23:20

I dont want to do this
it seems awful to be asking for specifics
BUT cause you'll all shout at me if I dont....

bowls- china and plastic would be fab
plates - china and plastic would be fab
duvets- dd2 has been picking the stuffing out of her single duvetr so its now very thin and lumpy
I think bedding meant covers and pillowcases rather than actual duvets
