Xmas2014SantaC9128, I am overcome at your thoughtfulness and generosity. I couldn't quite believe my eyes when the postman handed me the most enormous package this morning, and when I opened it I found beautifully wrapped gifts for me and my two DDs. As we are away for Christmas, we may well open them before we go if that is OK with you? I am choked up at your kindness. Thank you for making me feel special and worth doing something for as a tough old 18 months hopefully draws to a close.

To Xmas2014SantaB49888,

What a lovely surprise in my letter box this morning! Thank you so much for my secret santa gift, I am so touched by your generosity and kindness. The card is beautiful too, it is the first one I have received this year and it now has pride of place on my windowsill. Thank you again, and I wish you and your family a very special Christmas.

I had a lovely surprise in the post this morning. A kind MNer had written inside a gift card to "buy something lovely for your son ", such a kind generosity, I will enjoy choosing something for him. Thank you so much. It's much appreciated xx

I've no idea who nominated me either, so thanks to that kind soul too.

Merry Christmas to my nomination, my kind hearted Secret Santa and to all the lovely MNers too x

Thank you so much for your gift, I was so touched to be nominated, and receiving the gift is truly the icing on the cake. I can't thank you enough for sending something to me (there seems to be something in my eye )

I hope you and your family have a truly wonderful Christmas, a happy new year and all the happiness in the world.

Thank you again xx xx x

P.s, I'm glad you enjoyed our water Wink

Hello! My lovely gift arrived today and I wanted to say a huge thank you! It's made my day :o

I hope you don't mind but I'm going to try PMing you under your donor name because I'd like to be more specific (but I understand why MNHQ have suggested not doing so)

Thank you from a very happy mumsnetter :) Thanks

Xmas2014MN1941 · 03/12/2014 13:02

(Just posting again to change my name properly so I can PM you... I can't do it via settings as I seem to have forgotten my password Blush)

Xmas2014SantaC1706 · 03/12/2014 13:02

Xmas2014MN1706 I have just been to the Post Office so hopefully it should be with you soon. Not sure how long it will take as I don't usually send things internationally.

Xmas2014MN1362 · 03/12/2014 13:05

To Xmas2014SantaC1362
Thank you SO much!! It was really exciting to open the package and even more exciting when I saw what was in there. What marvellous choices!!

Xmas2014MN1360 · 03/12/2014 13:14

Oh my goodness - this is a huge massive thank you to xmasMNC1360 I wish I knew who you were so I could give you the biggest hug and say thank you so much for the amazing gifts. It's like you know me!! Wiping away tears that somebody could be so generous to a complete stranger. I haven't opened the present for my girls yet - will leave that pleasure to them when they get home! I am absolutely stunned and so grateful. Wishing you and your family a wonderful christmas and new year Flowers

TheRealXmas2014SantaA1941 · 03/12/2014 13:29

Hi Xmas2014MN1941!

So glad the parcel arrived safely and that you like it! Sorry it wasn't more exciting. I also forgot my password, so didn't name change until now Blush

And then it said that the name was already in use, but it looks as though it was in use by me! Confused so I've failed on the technical side of things, but at least the present arrived, which is the most important thing! I'm happy for you to PM me.

Everything is absolutely perfect and delightful and I am extremely touched by how carefully you have chosen the things you have sent.

Thank you thank you :) I've just received my parcel - and my first Christmas card! I don't know whether to open it now or save it for Christmas but I am so excited. Thank you very much for your lovely kindness x.

Xmas2014SantaC1360 · 03/12/2014 16:17

Delighted it arrived safely Xmas2014MN1360 and thank you so much for the lovely 'thank you'. I definitely don't know you!! ... but glad you approved of the choice. Shopping for someone you don't know is a bit of a shot in the dark Grin

I hope you and the DC's have a lovely Christmas x
