Allotments 4 All

Following the fun that was enjoyed doing this last year a couple of members have contacted me offering surprise presents so we can do this again.
Thanks to grannyjanny and pumpkinlover!!

So there will be 6 small Christmas Gifts which will be sent to 6 of the first 49 that donate this year.

To make it a truly fair random choice of who will receive these surprise Christmas presents I propose that each of the first 48 people that donate can choose a number between 1 and 49 (first donation first choice!  one choice per person!)
Then the six that will receive the surprise gifts will be the winning numbers from the Lotto main draw on Saturday the 10th of December which should allow enough posting time for them to arrive in time for Christmas.

The winners can elect to have the present delivered to their local Post Office or other address if they wish.

The aim of this is to try and make it interesting and get more people to donate this year.

If however we do not get near the 49 donations we will arrange a draw out of a hat for the gifts.

So when you have made your donation just come here and post the number you would like!
I will place a list of the taken numbers every few posts to make it easier to see which numbers are left.
Please try and keep this thread to number choices only

It is not compulsory but then you might not choose correctly this year anyway  ;D

Maybe you might like to opt in if we do not have a full take up of numbers near the end.

Number 45 please :D

17 please.

And thanks for taking this on.  :)

This is beginning to look like a who's who of my favourite people!!

Would love to snuggle up to Nigel too  :D hopefully Cefer from Oz will be alongside me soon. If I could contact Jeannine she would be alongside me too.

I'll change my number if Nigella comes on here.    :-*   :P :P :P   ;)

Well I have room for all the members of JLS alongside me.(Help the Aged)







Was going to modify but thought "what the hell"

Have heard the lovely Nigel will be on the Christmas special of Downton.  ;D

Following the fun that was enjoyed doing this last year a couple of members have contacted me offering surprise presents so we can do this again.
Thanks to grannyjanny and pumpkinlover,betula and hector!!

So there will be 6 small Christmas Gifts which will be sent to 6 of the first 49 that donate this year.

To make it a truly fair random choice of who will receive these surprise Christmas presents I propose that each of the first 48 people that donate can choose a number between 1 and 49 (first donation first choice!  one choice per person!)
Then the six that will receive the surprise gifts will be the winning numbers from the Lotto main draw on Saturday the 10th of December which should allow enough posting time for them to arrive in time for Christmas.

The winners can elect to have the present delivered to their local Post Office or other address if they wish.

The aim of this is to try and make it interesting and get more people to donate this year.

If however we do not get near the 49 donations we will arrange a draw out of a hat for the gifts.

So when you have made your donation just come here and post the number you would like!

Ninnyscrops

Our parcels have arrived, I've put them under the tree , thanks to everyone who organised and helped  x

Despite being correctly, and clearly, addressed Royal Mail tried to deliver mine to two other addresses before reaching me an hour ago.  Someone has written on it Try delivering to the correct address as shown!

Many thanks to all concerned, and I promise not to open it until Christmas Day!   

Just want to let the organisers know that my parcel arrived today - safe and sound and beautifully wrapped in shiny Christmas paper.   Can't wait to see what's inside - it's much bigger and heavier than I expected!   :o

Thank you so much   ;D

Picked up my parcel from the post office today - thank you so much.  Loved the card - Hoe, hoe, hoe!  Will open it on Sunday.

Yes the card was very good.
It was specially designed for Thrive by Martin Rolfe

He seems an excellent sketcher as can be seen in his blog at

http://martinsonlinesketchbook.blogspot.com/

I particularly like the two articles/ drawings of the staff at thrive.

I'm almost lost for words!   :)  I've just opened my present to be surprised and delighted at just how generous it is.
There are a Spear & Jackson stainless steel/wooden handled hand fork and trowel, a pair of Spear & Jackson Medium Bypass Secateurs, two smiley Coasters, a packet of Lindt mini milk chocolate truffles and the biggest, woolliest slug that I've ever seen which is green with purple lips!
I really can't thank those of you involved - Pumpkinlover, Ninnyscrops, Hector, Grannyjanny and Davyboi - enough for all these wonderful items.
   

Thanks so much for my lovely surprise runners-up present :) I got a lovely card and a book on veg growing. It's very much appreciated.
Hope you all have a lovely Christmas :)
Jackie

We finally had a few minutes to open our presents, thank you for your generosity. Our new tools will be taken to the plot tomorrow and our old ones will be donated to our special needs group  ;D
Love the knitted slug and the seeds will come in very handy, more new squash to try  ;D
The chocs will be shared later with everyone. Thank you to everyone involved, I hope you got all you wished for in your Christmas stockings  ;D

Now that the turkey is sorted and cooking nicely I just wish to thank you for a lovely present.  I got tools chocs, seeds and bath bombs. 

Thank you and Merry Christmas everyone XXX

I'd love to see a photo of the knitted slug!

(http://pic100.picturetrail.com/VOL1098/4708695/23340750/399500553.jpg)

This is the sample picture Hector sent me but I am sure Mike will take a better one for you

That really made me laugh!  Thanks Dave, it's brilliant!

That photo is better than the one I took! Squash it stands about 10" high, is at least that round the middle and has a little tail. 
So when I said big...! Any suggestions for a name?

Hope this works, here's a side shot of a smaller slug...they come in various sizes....largely dependant on whether or not the knitter is concentrating or watching a gripping thriller on TV and not counting rows  :P

I never thought I would ever say this - but what a lovely, cute, cuddly slug!

(the link didn't work for me, was it for a pattern or more pics?)

Mike, you have taken the words right out of my mouth!  I too was struck by the generosity of the gift - I got the same as you but seeds instead of coasters - and I loved the card too.   :D

Chloe, my two year old granddaughter, immediately grabbed the slug, sat on it, and called it Mr Squashy.   ;D

So thank you very much indeed Pumpkinlover, Ninnyscrops, Hector, Granny Janny and Davyboi - a perfect present.   :)

Happy New Year

Same here.  So so generous, big thank you Pumpkinlover, Ninnyscrops, Hector, Granny Janny and Davyboi.  I'm having a really good Christmas and I'm thankful for everything I have, I hope our collection can make some small difference to those less fortunate children and their families.

Everyone who has donated has been so generous especially in these hard times.

Just a few days left now.

Hard to believe that since I started this three years ago we have donated over a thousand pounds. ;D

Flighty has been great setting up the donation page and Davy with his good ideas has really given it all sparkle.Gift donations have been greatly appreciated.You are a good lot ;D

And we must not forget to thank you Betula for extra runner up gifts!! Thank You!!

Just a few days left now and we have reached £550  plus Gift Aid

Can we make it £600 + Gift Aid this year ??
