To Xmas2014SantaA4329
I am so very humbled by the kindness shown to me this year. It's a lovely think that someone is thinking of me even when I haven't got the means/time/resources to think of myself. thank you once again secret santa!

Xmas2014SantaD4329 · 01/12/2014 10:29

Xmas2014MN4329, you are very welcome. I hope you and/or your DS find something that he really likes!

Xmas2014SecretSantaA4329 · 01/12/2014 10:55

Also welcome! I am Xmas2014SantaA4329 but for some reason the system won't allow me to use that nn, says it's already in use Confused so I've had to cheat a little.

Hope it's enough to be useful. xx

Have a lovely Christmas and New Year, Xmas2014MN4329 WineCakeThanks

To Xmas2014SantaB5676
Thank you so much to Xmas2014SantaB5676 for my lovely letter and gift, I have been so ill recently and am recovering from major surgery, it really cheered me up.

I was so touched to be nominated for this, thank you from the bottom of my heart to whoever thought of me. MN has helped me though months of illness and I will never forget the support and kindness I have recieved from total strangers who nonetheless cared about how I was doing.
I hope to be in a position to donate to the secret Santa campaign next year Flowers

Look out for delivery of a gift card directly from Westfield and also a little parcel sent off today. On the parcel I signed myself Xmas2014SantaB5905, but as with a PP I got the message nn in use when I tried to save it, so am using the user name from the duplicate email, Xmas2014SantaC5905. Sending you best wishes for Christmas and the New Year.

Dear Xmas2014SantaD9395. Thank you so much for my parcel, it arrived on Friday i think. Would you mind if i kept it till xmas day to open? It's so lovely to receive something and just to be nominated. I really really appreciate it. Thank you again for going to the trouble to be so thoughtful to a stranger. I've had such a shit time recently and i don't know what i would have done without the love and support from MN. it really has made me feel that i am not so alone :)

To Xmas2014SantaA4351
I'm so grateful to my secret santa, you are so kind! We've had a rotten year and I really did need a pick me up .To be nominated truly means the world. We are going to find something nice to buy with the voucher, to treat ourselves for Christmas.

Thank you so much, you made me very happy and I feel very humbled at how kind you are.

Merry Christmas xx

To Xmas2014SantaC9993
I am very moved at having received my secret santa gift. It is quite functional my DS has one and they are great for taking out and about. My DD will love it she likes to do this sort of thing - the style is spot on too. We shall be using it whilst DS is in his activities - twice a week where we have to wait.

Thank you so much..I often feel a little invisible on here and I'm really touched that I was nominated.

Thank you to MNHQ for enabling such a luffslee thing to be 'appening too. --xxxxx-

Xmas2014SantaC9993 · 01/12/2014 17:17

To Xmas2014MN9993 there are more things to come, they have despatched separately! There is something for you, DS and DH as well, I'm glad DD will like the thing that has arrived so far, my DD is a bit older but I remember her loving those items at your DD's age Grin

xmas2014mn2464 · 01/12/2014 17:19

Hi, not sure what has happened as it said Xmas2014SantaA6698 was already taken.. but anyway...
My message is for Xmas2014MN6698. You present is being delivered directly from the retailer -It was due to arrive today but checking the tracking it hasn't been delivered yet so it may now be tomorrow.
I hope you have a lovely Christmas and I hope you enjoy your present.

SantaSandyMumsnet · 01/12/2014 17:38

Welcome all you lovely MNers. These messages are a joy to read.
Another year of warm fuzzy festive spirit, so much so, it's enough to melt the snow on Santa's sleigh. Thanks for all the generous giving and thanks to everyone for being so thoughtful and kind.

Hello MN9395

I got a notification of delivery today...

However, it looks from the thread that you might be getting more than one present (maybe!). If you have received a large box via Hermes, then I would recommend you do open it, but privately, because it is for one of your DC, and isn't wrapped. It is a specific item that I registered with the MN Secret Santa to give, but there is a chance that you already have it as it is a popular item. If you do already have one, I apologise and you are obviously free to do with it as you wish (including eBay it so you can get something else for your DC!!)

I will be surprised if you have received it yet because I only took it to the ParcelShop on Saturday!

A very merry Christmas to you xx

Dear Xmas2014SantaB9366,

How lovely to come home to a parcel! I've had a fraught and rubbish day at work today and I'm ashamed to say I opened your gift straight away when I got in and shall be using it this evening Grin Thank you so much, you've made my day. I particularly like how it was a gift all for meeee Flowers

Yours catchily
Xmas2014MN9366 (I think - whatever it says above this post)

Thanks to Sandy, all the nominators and gifters, you've done a lovely thing Flowers

MN9827

Your Amazon parcel is on its way
It's not wrapped so don't open in front of the kids

Sorry it's just a few little things but I hope it helps Smile

Xmas2014SantaD8482 · 01/12/2014 21:37

MN8482

My gift to you was ordered last night and is winging its way to you.

I hope there's plenty of time for you to put it to good use.

Merry Christmas to you and yours.

To Xmas2014SantaC2824
Thank you so much to the wonderful person who sent my box of goodies. It was unbelievably thoughtful of you to include a little something for all of us, although I'm tempted to stash the dcs' part somewhere secret for those days when only chocolate will do and not share them Wink.

Thank you again, to both my gift-giver and nominator, I'm really touched. Thanks.

Hello my lovely Xmas2014SantaB8026 (what a catchy name, it just trips off the tongue!), I have just opened your lovely gift, and it smells divine. We are off to visit my family for Christmas, and this is definitely coming in my bag with me.

Thank you so much to you, and my nominator. MN and vipers. Not here on this thread.

Thank you so much for your gifts, they are really appreciated by myself and my family. I've stashed them away for Christmas Day and will explain to the kids who they're from!

I've had a tough year but don't post on Mumsnet that often so it was a genuine surprise to be nominated. Thank you as well to whoever nominated me!

Hope you have a wonderful Christmas and thank you so much once again!
