[ChaosTrulyReigns]

I really am sorry, HQ.

I had it in my mnid that emails would be out by the 19th.

Oops.

As you were.

[Jacksmania]

I really want to know who nominated me, too. And for what. Can't imagine.

[ChaosTrulyReigns]

Services To Bendiness?

[LadyMaryChristmas]

I can't either, Jacks. I'm incredibly grateful, I've no idea why though.

[Jacksmania]

LOL Chaos!

I don't think so. I'm actually not very bendy, I'm one of those strong-but-not-terribly-bendy types :o so I could do this reasonably easily, but not this. In fact, my quads and back are so tight that the ad ind one is completely out of my reach.

[Jacksmania]

Second one, obvs.

Anyway - I digress :o

[Jacksmania]

LadyMary, if you are who I think you are then you absolutely deserve the nomination!!!!!

[LadyMaryChristmas]

I found out last night that there's another LadyMary, she's LadyMaryCrawley. I was LadySybildeChocolate before her sad demise {sobs}. I was LadyMaryCreepyCrawley over halloween, and was going to change to LadyMaryCrawley after Christmas. I need to think of a whole new name now.

[LadyMaryChristmas]

I bet that's as clear as mud!

[Jacksmania]

Yes it is :o

[Pickles77]

I was nominated- whoever it is. Im very very touched and it made me cry a lot so thank you

[MrsTerryPratchett]

Does everyone who gets nominated get a pressie. I just want to know if the flipping lovely person I nominated will definitely get something.

[ParceQueJeLeVauxBien]

I think so, MrsTP - from what I remember reading from other years, there are usually more donors than nominees

[SolomanDaisy]

Reading those nominationcomments made we wonder if it might be possible to see the nomination of the person we're sending gifts to. If I've got the person who never buys anything for herself I want to buy for her not her children, iyswim.

[MrsTerryPratchett]

Thanks Parce. If it helps, OP, she is nice, having a hard time and not well known in the slightest. I doubt she hangs out in Site Stuff so wouldn't have gone on to say she was nominated. You could argue that well-known posters are more likely to be on that thread so it's a bit self-selecting for your theory.

[MrsTerryPratchett]

Bugger half that comment was the wrong thread. Serves me right for having two open at once.

[GrannyRat]

Right, late to the party (as usual) and have been directed to this thread from the uncharitable one in AIBU. Anyway, can I still nominate someone or is it too late? Also, will the poster whom I intend to nominate find out who I am? I wouldn't want them to but would like them to know the reason. Thanks.

[rubycon]

I've been nominated too - I know not why, but thank you very much to whoever it was that took the time and made the effort to put me forward, that in itself was a present!

[TheLightPassenger]

has anyone got a link to last years' nominatory comments, it would be nice to read that as well.

[PeppermintPasty]

Have I missed the boat? How do you nominate?

[MaryAnnSingleton]

I have been nominated and am truly touched

[SandyMumsnet]

Hi MrsTerry,
Absolutely most definitely.

[OhComeAllYeZombies]

Are you deleting the right thread, Helen?
