OMG - how utterly embarassing!

I cried at work today. I actually cried. I wouldn't mind, but I hardly know these people - I've only been there three months.

However - I won the lot!! £188. I still can't believe it. My son now has some nice leather school shoes and TWO pairs of trousers!!

And I still have over £100 left.

I can't decide what to do with it, but it's the best "not knowing" in the world!

so good to hear of someone who really needs it winning - well done!

Hi, I'm new to this forum, but I'd like to help. I run a clothing business and if you let me know what size shoes, trousers & anything else your son takes I can see if I have any in his size. I can't promise anything as I have limited stock for teenagers, but I wouldn't expect any money and I can post them directly to your address.

Hi liberty, i was absolutley stunned and blown away by your kindness and generousity. I think it is amazing what you offered to do. There are not many people who would offer to help a complete starnger in the way you did and i just want to say what a great person you are. I will also be voting for you for post of the month.

Also want to say well done to hootie for winning on the lottery and i hope things look up for you and your family from now on

I agree with HQ sometimes someone or something is on your side. It's always lovely to see the true spirit of MSE shining through on this board.
