Have sent gift to the person I was selected to send to and clicked the button at the bottom to say it is sent. Recieved an email back saying thank you for sending with the Santa B but will my recipient be wondering what happenend to Santa A present? I only put down to donate one item.

Dear Xmas2014MN1310

I hope you have received it by now? As I said, upthread, I posted it Royal Mail 'Signed For' on Thurs 4th Dec. Having gone into the RM tracking system, I see it was received and signed for last Saturday, 6th December. So I hope it is safe with someone?! I do have the RM tracking number, if you need it - I can PM it to you.

Xmas2014SantaC1248 · 12/12/2014 16:35

Xmas2014MN1248 you are very welcome. Merry Christmas :)

I suspect I know who nominated me so thank you - you are very kind xx

Thank you so much for the voucher for Amazon, I shall use it towards something for myself and LO's.
I can't believe the generosity of yourself and all the others out there, doing this good thing to make a strangers Christmas, that bit better.
A million thanks Flowers Flowers

Dear Xmas2014SantaA7414,

I arrived home today after a hectic day out to be handed your gift by my DH. Thank you so very much. The cute little stocking it came in will definitely be finding a place on our Christmas tree.

Hoping you have a lovely Christmas x

Dear Xmas2014SantaB3024 thank you thank you thank you. How lovely of you to send 4 presents! Ive opened mine which im utterly thrilled with (30F ha) and the childrens ones are under the tree. Your kindness is over whelming, and is even more gratefully received as i had a flood in the room where i'd stored the other presents and much was ruined.
Have a wonderful Christmas
Winterland xx

Thankyou so much for your lovely gift!
It has not been the best/easiest of years this year so I was extremely touched to be nominated and to receive such a kind and fabulous gift.
You made me feel very special and that people cared, thank you.
I hope that you and yours have a wonderful Christmas.

Dear Secret Santa.
I received an envelope today and opened it to find an extra-ordinarily sweet letter with your wonderful gift. I was deeply moved and just sat and cried. Your thoughtfulness and kindness have really touched me. I am humbled by your generosity. How can a complete stranger do this? Thank you very much.

Xmas2014MN9957 · 12/12/2014 21:42

Xmas2014SantaC9957, I have pm'd you. xx

to MN5256

I seem to have two secret Santa names, Xmas2014SantaC5256 and also B5256 for some reason. I'm not sure if someone else also has these names. you should have received a box of sweet stuff from me. Hopefully it will arrive soon if not.

Xmas2014SantaC5256 · 12/12/2014 22:13

Whoops sorry, I have just seen your message above but I'm not responsible for the letter, although there was a card in the box.

Xmas2014SantaD1821 · 12/12/2014 22:20

Dear Xmas2014Santa(D) 1821
I sent your box if little treats for you and your DCs a little while ago and it should have arrived by now, hope you all have a wonderful Christmas together. (Only little treats, I know, but didn't want to leave anyone out. Xmas Grin)

Dear XmasSantaA3403,

I received a most perfect parcel this morning of such generosity and so very well matched to our family I am overwhelmed. I wonder how you knew?

Thank you from the bottom of my heart. My children will be delighted as am I. I honestly can't work out how you managed to be so spot on.

It has been suggested by MNHQ that we don't give too much detail on the thread as it isn't a competition and I think that is right but thank you so much for what you have done. It has really meant a lot.

I wish you and your family a perfect Christmas too.

Xmas2014MN6652 · 12/12/2014 23:10

To Xmas2014SantaB6652
Thank you very much whoever sent the three gifts, one for ME!!! And some for Nemo and DD.

I have a MN number but I'd like you to know who you've sent your gifts too - me, Mouseface!!

A very Merry Christmas to you and your family, friends or whoever is close to you, you have a good heart.

Thank you so much,

Mouse xxx
