Hello,

Would anyone be interested in forming a new book swap group for those long winter nights? Let me know!

Hi @clairethewitch70 that was the plan but am still missing details from a few people who said they were interested. I’ll send PMs to those outstanding, but am happy to go ahead as a 4 to start with if that’s what everyone else would prefer? We can always add in more people next cycle.

Happy to start whenever! Although I guess it might be more interesting with a few more participants.

clairethewitch70 · 08/12/2018 12:02

I am happy to start whenever, maybe put another callout if you want more participants @AwesomeBadger

Hi SassiePuffin,

You’re definitely not too late, I have sent you a PM just requesting a couple of details.

I’ll put out a last shout out and then we can start

Hi all,

I now have details for seven people plus me, which seems like a great number to get started with.

Is everyone happy to do chocolate with a budget of £2.50?

If you have any dietary requirements please shout ASAP.

Hello,

Later this afternoon I will send each of you the details of the person you are sending to.

I know it’s a crazy busy time for everyone at the moment, but if we could all try to send our books and chocolate by the 18th that would be great!

Any queries just shout!
