Thank you both so much I have pm'd you. I really cant thank the kind people who have offered to help. It just goes to show you that there are some genuine caring people in the world.

i don't know if it helps but i work in a charity shop and we were donated some PS2 games (football etc.) we do not sell them but if you would like them let me know! or, i could send them to you and you could sell/exchange them at GAME. maybe worth something!

[vikki75]

Thank you that is very kind. We have a few game shops round here that will take used games

[louise1111]

no problem. let me know where to send them

Hey Vikki -have pm'd you xx

[angel_1]

hiya Vikki

 

i wish you and the family good fortune and happiness and yes if you can perhaps if you dont feel comfortable in giving us your address what about do you know a business or a friend who has a business near you that we could send our gifts and stuff to, who is willing to accept stuff at their business premises on your behalf, you could say something that you dont want the kids to see the stuff before christmas

 

just my own thought to keep your address private thats all

 

pm if you like

 

take care ciao for now MAZ hugs

[hilaryfrances]

[vikki75]

Thank you very much I will be sure to let you know when they arrive

[vikki75]

I just wanted to say a huge thank you to the kind people who have sent me things for the kids. I have started wrapping the presents today. There are still a few bits that I'm saving up for, these are the things that they have been wanting since last year.

 

Best wishes and thank you for making this christmas happen

Vikki and Family

Think they mean a santa list. xx

[ukaviator]

Yes the Santa list. . .

[vikki75]

Doh... Sorry I think its lack of sleep from being up with 4 ill kids all night . Here is the stuff that they have wanted since last christmas.

The cheapest place I have found them all is Argos they are all in stock at the moment so just hoping they will stay that way...

 

1. Peppa Pig Classroom Playset -£14.59
   
2. Jungle In My Pocket Treehouse - £19.49
   
3. Thomas Post Office Loader - £14.29
   
4. Thomas and Rosie Playset - £9.79
   
5. Puppy In My Pocket Pocketville Hospital - £19.54
   

And that is it. I know they they havent asked for major things but its still expensive when you add them all up.

hey Vikki.. didn't see if you mentioned.. where abouts in the country are you roughly? pm me if you don't want to tell the world

[vikki75]

I'm in merseyside

[junebug]

Gosh Vikki, I am so sad to hear that it seems to be acceptable for people to be in your situation. I have been in a similar position, like so many others here (without the kids admittedly) but have been evicted from my home before, and always seemed to be struggling for money for food as noone seems to take the excuse 'I can't afford to eat if you take x amount'. I count myself lucky on coming across this site though, and while I am in no way as clued up as some people here, I am much more aware of my rights than I was this time last year.

 

I realise it is not going to make things magically better, but I have some bits I could send on to you if you PM me your address.

 

I hope things get better for you, just remember, you're not alone at all, it took this forum for me to realise that & I think it every time I come here.

 

So thanks guys!

[vikki75]

Thank you that is very kind of you. I have pm'd you.

I put the tree up today it looked lovely then the lights popped not having much luck with christmas this year

[vikki75]

I managed to get the lights sorted today and one of my friends came round with some presents for the kids. Amongst them were 2 of the things off their christmas list so its a bit less for me to find. Saying that all the places I've looked wont take orders after the 19th and I dont get money in until the 21st.

Here is the updated list for those who have asked. Thanks again, Vikki

 

1. Jungle In My Pocket Treehouse - £19.49
   
2. Thomas Post Office Loader - £14.29
   
3. Puppy In My Pocket Pocketville Hospital - £19.54
   

[supasnooper]

I'll make sure one of them gets to you in time for Xmas.
