I've missed out on two now. I quite like the idea, anyone else?

Oh I think I'm too late to join you all? - if anyone drops out can I be added to the circle? Thanks

Flame · 07/04/2008 13:05

I had locating issues... Book is now found and should be posted tomorrow

whispywhisp · 06/04/2008 18:48

I'm sorry - we've all been poorly here. I will get my book in the post tomorrow - Monday. I've not had my book as yet from flame? x

If there's enough interest in ANOTHER book swap group, given that this one seems to be just about functional , I'll consider starting one up...

I've got a few names and addresses, so if anyone else would like to join in let me know. I'll start up another thread for the new group if and when it gets off the ground.

Sorry Flossie, I wasn't very helpful on that score, was I .

Glad it's not just me who is running late. I posted AND received a book yesterday.

FlossieTCake · 04/04/2008 00:47

Ok, rosmerta - have posted today, missed the last post though so it may not reach you til early next week: sorry.

I did think of one thing though - I don't know who the book I'm reading came from so am not sure which book club thread to add my thoughts to! And given I have already read 3/4 of it (it's pretty gripping) I'm going to need to do that pretty soon...

luna/madhouse: which of you posted me a hardback? And I'll try and figure it out from there :-)

Flame · 03/04/2008 20:32

I'm crap - sorry!!! I will try and remember tomorrow

rosmerta · 03/04/2008 20:04

I don't think it matters Flossie, as long as everyone gets a book once a month & then we can figure out at the end who they belong to!

hi squilly, I've had your CAT, thank oo.

OP posts:
FlossieTCake · 03/04/2008 11:19

Mine will be in the post today. I received two books (second yesterday) and had already read one of them so I'm posting that one on - may mean we've got a little bit out of synch but everyone should still get through all of them!

squilly · 03/04/2008 11:12

I've just unblocked my CAT thing...god that sounds weird! But hopefully, you'll know what I mean!!!!

rosmerta · 03/04/2008 09:29

Not had mine yet, but have posted one!

TheMadHouse · 03/04/2008 09:27

It looks like my two have received theirs - shame on me that one of them is a whole month late

I am standing by for eye creams. Hope it's an expensive unaffordable one, and not Sainsburys own brand.

Is she???

squilly · 02/04/2008 09:25

I think I signed up successfully for CAT last night, but am not sure. I've just got to get the nipper over to her friends house, then it's a free day for me...yippeee!!!

I'll send my CAT details once I've figured what it was!

As for being snooty, I only do that on Wednesdays...and even then, only at that time of the month. The rest of the time I'm an SFZ...snooty free zone.

Espeak soon.

PS.... Am now salivatying at thought of free beauty products, though tbh, they're rather wasted on my strong, middle aged features

squilly!

thought you'd gone all snooty and were blanking me.

we're all a bit confused on this thread as to who's in and who's out. hopefully all is soon to become clear. can you keep your eye on the thread... It'd be very handy if you've got CAT, in which case CAT me your details.

(CAT's useful for all sorts of things I've found. Eg Cod's giving away beauty products to be reviewed if you go over to Style and Beauty.)

I somehow managed to miss the message that asked if I still want to join, unless I'm hallucinating from lack of wireless connection..

YES!!! I DO...Have I blown it again?????

If I can join, please let me know. I'm just off to get my switch card to get CAT'd....

I still got lots of ooks to share...

Sue.

FlossieTCake · 31/03/2008 16:10

I haven't posted yet - was going to the post office on my way to collect DD later this afternoon - so will hang on a day or two and see what arrives in the post, if that's OK with rosmerta..?

Will mean I've skipped a month (and themadhouse's original book!) but maybe I can get it at the end of the year??
