Ah, Steph, but isn't the PM itself going to be a surprise? I mean you don't exactly find out every day that you will receive a lovely box of surprise gifts for Christmas?



If I only could

I think we have had 9 nominations so far and I've asked two people if they wouldn't mind doing some so if anyone does want to do any please let me know and a round about figure of how many you could take on would be great!

The people who PMd me with nominations, I will PM you back, just trying to sort out who is sending what to whom!x

Can I nominate more people even though I've already nominated already, given there are more spaces?

If needed then I can do a box or two. Think it's a lovely idea and I'm more than happy to help. And it will give me another project to keep me occupied since I'm signed off work at the moment.



More than a little fruity...

i'd imagine that you have enough people at this point, but this is an amazing idea and if you do need another couple of boxes doing I'd like to volunteer

Hi everyone thanks so much for all the replies.

Will send out replies tomorrow as Ive been ill this weekend!

To everyone who has offered to do a box I can split down the amount I am doing and the ones I was going to share out to others so that people get to do one?That takes the burden off of people doing lots and means those who would like to join in can!

I will make a list tomorrow of all the nominations etc so its organised and will PM those offering to do a box.

Thank you all!!xx

Can those who are nominated for one find out who nominated them, to say thank you? Or would you prefer it to be anon?

I think it depends on who did the nominating?

We had 11 nominations altogether as well as a fair few double (and triple) nominations!!

I have 3 boxes left so if you would like to do one please PM me and I will send you someone!

Carmen, give me a PM and I will see what I can do :) I'm just conscious about postage times!x

The plan is (from me at least) is to write a message from the person who nominated in a christmas card for with the box if the person nominating wants them to know it's from them. If they don't I will just write a card from me :)

Liv, was just wondering, are you going to PM the people who nominated others to get their messages? Was just asking coz I assume you will be posting them off fairly shortly...?

Were these boxes ever sent?



It became like a sort of prison. Encased in a silver shell, words so full of bleeding need spilled like drops on dry leaves. And all the while laughter prevailed a long way from here. Nowhere land, nowhere time, nowhere space.
