SantaSandyMumsnet i'm just testing to see if this works. However, I can't see the pop up box thingy or code numbers of which you speak anywhere on my screen!! Is it because I'm on an iPad?

Hiya, all good techie wise for the iPad, so you should be able to see your pop up box. Please mail us at [email protected] and we'll happily take a closer look.

Many thanks for my very generous Christmas gift from Xmas2014MN2520

Xmas2014MN7046 · 17/12/2014 13:23

Hello Secret Santa,
Thank you so much for your gift card. I've had to retire early to look after a very poorly dh and this will make a big difference to our Christmas. Thank you so very much for your kindness. I hope you have a wonderful Christmas.

Thank you so, so much for my parcel. The Christmas garland is now adorning the mantelpiece and looks fab. Xmas Smile Present placed under the tree so thank you in advance.

I was really touched to be nominated and having a parcel arrive was brilliant. Happy Christmas and thank you again. xxx

Xmas2014SantaB5138 · 17/12/2014 14:52

So glad the gifts arrived, hope you will have lots of fun opening them all. Will be thinking of you all on Christmas Day and sending you festive vibes, hope you all have a lovely day. Xmas Smile

Hello!
I haven't seen my Santa on here, but I received a note saying I have a parcel next door. So if it is my Santgift, thank you so much, I'll be saving it till Christmas.

How do I say thank you!
A gift all the way from the USA, to my door - beautifully wrapped, and absolutely delightful. I am so touched by your thoughtfulness.
Nomination came as a total surprise, and your gift has completed a wonderful feeling of warmth and genuine caring which has made me feel quite tearful.

Wishing you a truly wonderful Christmas.

(I hope the postage wasn't toooo exorbitant!)

I hope you haven't been worried by your lack of gift, I have been out of the country for the past few weeks and so I haven't been able to post anything. I got home this morning and have parcelled up the gifts and they have now been dropped off at my local post office and should be with you soon.

I hope that you and yours have a wonderful Christmas, I will be thinking of you on the day.

HappyGoLuckyGirl · 17/12/2014 16:33

Xmas2014SantaA9636 - I just saw your message! I did receive your gifts, I posted on this thread through the 'Received gift' tab at the bottom of the page, maybe it didn't appear!

Thank you so much for your lovely gifts. They made my day - and DS'. He had one of those bears but it sadly broke a while ago and I hadn't got round to replacing it. He loved it, carried it around with him and tried to feed it juice! I appreciated my gifts immensely, as I never get time for a relaxing bath! Merry christmas to you and yours and thank you, very much!

Xmas2014SantaD1048 · 17/12/2014 17:01

Xmas2014MN1048 Glad it arrived in time, was worried I'd left it rather late! :) Hope it doesn't disappoint.

Have a fab chrristmas, and here's to amusing confused postpersons! ;)

Xmas2014SantaB1202 · 18/12/2014 13:26

Dear Xmas2014MN1202

I'm really sorry I haven't managed to post your gift before today - have been rather disorganised busy this December. But, it is on its way at long last and should be with you tomorrow or Saturday.

Wishing you and your family a very happy Christmas. x

MN2014Santa5098 · 18/12/2014 13:31

To Xmas2014MN5098 - I am so glad you like it, I really struggled with what to get to make everyone happy, given your family description (I am in awe of you)! So I hope it works. Also there were no gift options available for wrapping/note etc SadBlush. Wishing you all a very Merry Christmas though xx
