    I think that story sums it all up - if you can help just one person then you have made the difference. It's also nice to be nice as they say!

    Thank you all for your kind words and support. So surprised.
    Intended to say how much this thread has made me appreciate what I have got but didn't type half of what I meant to say.
    >head is still back to front<
    RACHIE77, loved the Starfish story.
    A few simple words do make a difference, I can vouch for that.

    Someone so young who has never had the chance to enjoy life really deserves something to cheer them up a bit.
    Please try to find the time to send a message.
    If I do nothing else I will be sending extra cards this Christmas.


    Oops, just bumped this thread:D

    I just sent an audio storybook cd to a blind girl. I got a handmade card so she can feel it. It is so hard to know what to get isn't it? I took advantage of a grabbit on the grabbit board and bought a buckaroo for £1.74 at Tescos, so am going to send that to one of them too.

    Wish I had got more of the buackroo games now! At the time I was thinking, who on earth could I give a buckaroo too as I only have one tiny child in the family :rolleyes: so I only got one!! Have put it to much better use by sending it to one of the pals though as our cousin is so spoilt anyway.

    It's always the way isn't it! Next time I see a kids bargain I will stock up!!

    Katie :p
