Harley, Tony, I hope you guys realise how loved and appreciated you are for all you've done, and I hope very much that we get a chance as a community to do something like this again because you've made a lot of grateful people very happy. If you're possibly considering anything similar for next year, count me in if you need anything at all.
I can't stop playing with this fish thing xD
Now I'll play your ghost as my ace, whenever I'm led astray.
But I am actually good, can't help it if we're tilted.
I'm in my right place, don't be a downer.
I haven't even got mine and I'm really grateful just for the thought! Plus I like getting mail and it will be a surprise looking forward to checking the mail tomorrow!!
I also want to know who got the kindle??
Thanks so much harley and Tony and anybody else who helped make this happen I think you are amazing people with beautiful hearts to have put so much thought into this <3
I NEVER WIN a top prize but I got a £15 WHSmith voucher. Oh, and a starfish magnet : D
Thanks Harley and Tony from the bottom of my heart.
Plus it couldn't have been done on favouritism as I had some fallings out with a few members and Mods on the run up to Christmas. All sorted and water under the bridge before Christmas thank goodness. And to say thanks I bought an extra ticket for someone who couldn't afford one : )
Bring on a 'rock around the the christmas tree' or the chachacha (sp?!)
So who got the Kindle??!!

I was really pleased, my daughter bought me a brown leather bag for christmas and in my parcel from Tony and Harley was a lovely brown purse which matches perfectly...I am so grateful..thank you Harley and Tony
Reading some of these posts has made me feel quite sad. I really hope some members come back to this and re-read their posts in the light of day. Some of the venom was not needed, nor was the ganging up on one member, even if you didn't agree with their comments.

And I've seen mention of people getting a starfish magnet? Auragrace, if that was one of the 'crappy' things you were horribly ungrateful for, then send it my way please, I know a member who would love one of those :)
I got one .
But it is going on my fridge.

This really has been an awesome thing.
tbh its not christmas without someone complaining about what they got present wise. People seem to forget the whole point is about spending time with your family and being grateful for what you have, not about getting fancy new things .

There's always one. But please don't either of you let that colour the fact that you have made many many people so happy, even those who weren't involved have appreciated your Xmas spirit.

I like my starfish who is currently on my fridge - I didn't know what it was at first, lol! I re-arranged all my 4 (!) magnets to make space for my starfish!

My friend wanted to get me the Lady Gaga CD but it had sold out in the entire City of Norwich!!
For those that don't know, Norwich is in the top 10 of shopping destinations in the whole of the United Kingdom (UK). It has two shopping malls and streets upon streets of shops.
Lady Gaga sure was popular this christmas!! Oh well, it may be in the January sales, lol!!
