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!!

haven't read all the thread, just dropped in to say i've sent trinityrhino some shoes and boots in the appropriate sizes this afternoon.

(It appears that things have moved on quickly since then! no mention of shoes in the new list) oh well ...
use what you need, ebay/local paper/bin the rest. xx

Hello,

I've got a dress you might like Trinity -
A fab colourful jersey printed tunic dress- looks good worn over jeans or leggings. It's 'freesize', and I think it would fit a size 12. Let me know if you want it Trinity I have just uploaded some pics of front, back and a close up of the print to my profile here on MN.

Could someone please send me the address:
stephanie mit at google mail dot com

milge · 31/10/2009 00:19

I can do plastic cutlery, tights ( like everyone else), John Grisham novels, cot bed duvet and linen, single bed sheets and linen, girlie socks, sippy cups.

Email me with address etc at mnmilge at yahoo dot co dot uk

tigerbear · 31/10/2009 00:20

Trinity also, if you like any of the little felt toy creatures shown on my profile page, let me know if your Lo's would like one each, and if so, what type of animal or creature they would prefer. I'll make them, and send them on to you.

tigerbear · 31/10/2009 00:23

Hi Hanaboo - sorry about your window
Welcome to the lovely world of MN (when we're not being invaded by trolls that is!).

2shoescreepingthroughbloo... someone (eandh or someone else) can still cat you as long as you have this function turned on your account - that you accept cat messages so please check (you just can't send cat unless you pay small subscription) so someone will cat you address or post up an email on here and I can send address to you now. cheers

stressed2007 · 31/10/2009 00:46

eandh just realised I have some Boden credit on my account - think that is where coat coming from so maybe there is somehow I can order and you put some of money collected towards it.

Also in any event please use one of The Boden discounts - I think I have a 15% voucher somewhere so will mean quite a lot of £ of.

Please don't order til we have corresponded - if we can save on this it will mean more £ to forward one. cheers

stressed2007 · 31/10/2009 00:59

eandh have just emailed you with various bits as off to bed soon. Please get back to me when you get a chance. You are doing a fab job x

Jacksmamwahahaha · 31/10/2009 02:42

Mumsnet rocks

HalloweenIsSofaKingScary · 31/10/2009 05:56

I have some Boden trousers in a size 14(navy twill, grey velvet & purple cotton) I'd be happy to send. Some of them have been taken up as I'm 5' 2" short arse. Does anybody know how tall TR is?

Also - what size is her DSS GF? I have some maternity trousers, jeans and a couple of noppies skirts in size 12/14.

Also when the time is right I have a graco buggy / travel system that they'd be more than welcome to have. It's quite bulky though so wouldn't want to send it yet.

I'll have a rummage for some unisex baby clothes too, although I think most of it is fairly blue.

Might need a few days to wash and iron them

eandh · 31/10/2009 06:31

OH - I had a thought. On the bowls front I happen to know that Trinity rea;;y likes those pasta bowls, the ones with the writing round the inside. She did have 2 but they got broken.

mamadiva · 31/10/2009 07:22

Hiya not sure if yo are still looking but I have a Yellow Noddy duvet set (single) and 2x 9oz Avent Magic cups that are no longer needed and I think I have some unisex baby stuff too.

It's all in good condition but well used IYKWIM, if it's of any use let me know.

eandh · 31/10/2009 07:25

mamdiva am sure Trinity will love those bits (she said they needed lots of bedding) do you want me to email address?

OP posts:
eandh · 31/10/2009 07:28

oh and a bit cheeky but emailed Boden last night to ask if we could have a little extra discount off the coat to send more to trinity

OP posts:
mamadiva · 31/10/2009 07:34

Yes please Eandh

My email is sr86 @ hotmail dot co dot uk

Thank you, will get it posted off on Monday as won't have a chance before then.

NoNameNameyChangey · 31/10/2009 08:01

Good idea eandh, lets see how good their customer service is!

You haven't sent Trinity's address to me but Blondes has forwarded it so I am good to go.

TrinityHasAVampireRhino · 31/10/2009 08:33

I am shocked by all of this
I just feel so so lucky to have mn and all the wonderful people on it
I just cannot thank you enough

ok questions

duke is a collie cross lurcher
he is slightly smaller than your average collie

comics - dd1 loves the simpsons
dd2 loves princessy, girly, sparkly stuff...
dd3 loves dora and peppa pig

I've just looked through my email and I bought the leapster from elc.co.uk
when you turn it on it just says there is no game pak in it and there is
and it was like that from the beginning

I'm 5"7 and a bit

dss's girlfriend is 12 on top, 14 on bottom

TrinityHasAVampireRhino · 31/10/2009 08:36

oh tigerbear
I love the top
and I was just thinking how sweet
the felt toys are

One of each would be fab
the top one looks like sleepy bird from pocoyo
gecko would love that

dd2 would love the horse and dd1 gets called monkey alot so the monkey would be fab

thankyou so much, so very kind

TheHappyCamper · 31/10/2009 08:53

Hi there,
Am I correct in thinking trinity lives near Gretna?

I have a massive heavy box with every John Grisham book - I was going to take to charity shop!

Unbelievably we are driving up to Gretna on Friday night to look at wedding venues - I could drop the books off on Saturday???

email is c n e a t b y @ y a h o o . c o . u k
