Right boss, I have one book, and can post when ready. Awaiting instructions (like a girlyy swat!) and I wish you could use strike out on the phone!

dinkystinky · 19/07/2012 12:54

Tis ok Swampy, we're used to it by now.

Can everyone pop on to do a roll call of how many books they have by the end of July? Will then do a list of who posts to who and you'll have until September to read whatever book you get to read.

Thanks

Just posted two books to Piebald - very, very late AND I'm incapable of following instructions. Blush

acsec · 15/07/2012 10:50

I have my book but haven't started it yet, I break up next week so hope to get plenty of reading done then!

dinkystinky · 11/07/2012 15:37

Just bumping the clun back up to its rightful place Grin

Hope all have books now - you have your book till end of July.

If anyone hasnt got one yell. If anyone wants to escape the clun or has had their family stage an intervention to break them free of the clun's evil grasp, let me know.

Thanks

acsec · 28/06/2012 22:16

No problem, didn't want you having to try to fit more people in the already troublesome list!

I'm still awaiting my book, but musttidyup is on the case :)

dinkystinky · 28/06/2012 11:09

Thanks Acsec - our official stand-in fat controller of the clun. Sorry guys, definitely no room in the clun for now.

Just a reminder - everyone should have posted their books by now. If you havent, PLEASE do it by the end of June. Everyone has till the end of July to read their current book. We have several plug books in circulation so hopefully everyone should get a book.

Please can you pop on here to confirm how many books you have with you by the end of the first week in July so I can keep track. Anyone who doesnt post by end of June will need to pop on and let me know why they cant and will see if can rejig list to make sure everyone still in the clun has something to read by the end of July.

Sorry too late to join, but yes chick lit is still banned! :)

Itsgottabebags · 26/06/2012 09:49

Is it too late to join and is chick lit still banned?

clemetteattlee · 25/06/2012 23:04

No worries, maybe I could go on a waiting list? Grin

acsec · 25/06/2012 20:52

Very sorry clemetteattlee we've been going for a while and are currently full and having a hard time keeping track of the clun as it is, so not accepting new members atm. Sorry!

clemetteattlee · 25/06/2012 18:08

Have just seen this thread and wondering if you are accepting new members??

acsec · 23/06/2012 16:18

Still no book :( but have had a pm from musttidyup, so hoping it's on it's way!

dinkystinky · 22/06/2012 12:37

Enjoy Haribo Grin

Right - has everyone now posted/received a book? there are a few plug books doing the rounds so no one should be left out.

If you havent received a book, please pm the person who should be posting to you to find out where it is - the posting list is up above on the thread (scroll up about 10 or so posts). If people no longer want to be in the clun, please pop on here to let me know and will rejig the list accordingly.

Thanks

Haribojoe · 22/06/2012 10:56

Book has just landed on my doormat, thanks Dinky Grin have read the blurb and love the sound of it, will be settling down with wine chocolate and book tonight once the little Haribos are in bed Smile

dinkystinky · 21/06/2012 14:22

on its way...

Haribojoe · 20/06/2012 22:47

Yes please Dinky Smile

dinkystinky · 20/06/2012 20:13

Dont worry Kiwi - it was crying in a good way (I think).

kiwijesta · 20/06/2012 12:27

Well I've not got a book, but I know Rufus has been busy. And I'm sorry I made you cry on the tube, there were many incidences of that with friends when we all read Kite Runner and Time Travellers Wife (that's neither book btw) luckily I was forewarned cause I'm a real sobber! I had to hang my pillow outside to dry after finished TTW!

dinkystinky · 20/06/2012 09:18

Have finished my book for this time round - its Kiwi's plug one I think and I really enjoyed it (though it did make me cry on the tube!) and finished it in 2 days. Am happy to send on to anyone that didnt get a book this time round. Haribo - do you want it?

BuntinoonsAndJubileespoons · 18/06/2012 16:01

Um....Bumblebeader hasn't had a book yet either! Its nearly on the way though! Grin

dinkystinky · 18/06/2012 14:17

Can you PM Tilly please Haribo? I think she's been having abit of a school mare from previous posts but hopefully she's back on track now - Rufus - can you PM Tilly too if you havent got your book?

Haribojoe · 18/06/2012 14:11

Haven't had a book, am starting to wonder if my postie is a secret MNer and has been intercepting my books Hmm

dinkystinky · 18/06/2012 12:15

So, does everyone have their book now? You have till the end of term (end of July that is) to finish reading it...

BuntinoonsAndJubileespoons · 15/06/2012 11:24

Yes I got it thanks, Acsec.
