yee haa can't wait.
How sad am I?
Saw my auth/title choice yesterday in the whsmith sale for £2.99 so bought it again.
The person I am sending to will have a spanking new copy not the really tatty (I mean really really disgusting tatty) copy I have on my bookshelves.
MamaG sounds as if we are all in for a lovely treat. No duplicates, a good mix of titles etc...
oohhh I'm getting excited.

MamaG · 10/01/2008 15:16

OK, have emailed everybody except IdrisTheDragon with your addresses ready to go tomorrow.

Idris, the reason I haven't mailed you is that you are the last on teh list (so to speak) so if vacua comes back to me in time, you'll be sending to her but if not, you'll be sending to someone else (the person vacua would have been sending to)

Does this make sense?

So, if anybody has not got an email, please let me know PDQ

Apart from a couple of OOPS emails, I think it went smoothly. Am now 80% grey with the worry!

Ooh so glad I found the book club thread!

I spent AGES choosing a book - sat there looking at the bookshelfs wondering what to pick. My dd tried to help but kept on suggesting my comfort books, such as Jilly Cooper. And as much as I love Rupert Campbell-Black thought I would send something else!

leoleo · 10/01/2008 17:57

wooo hoooo

I AM SO EXCITED!!!!

shoshe · 10/01/2008 18:11

Book wrapped and ready to post first thing in the morning

havalina · 10/01/2008 22:14

I'm looking forward to reading everyones choices, but is anyone else going to get obsessed with decoding the titles/authors in the titles.

God I'm impatient

havalina · 10/01/2008 22:28

Also I am a Joanne, bet there are 3 joanne's, there are always 3 wherever you go

Staceym21AtLast · 10/01/2008 23:15

BurpyErnie · 10/01/2008 23:25

MamaG · 10/01/2008 23:26

Wll be posting tomorrow.

Hope I get mine to go away with. I'm going to Champneys for 4 days! A friend of mine has won a make-over competition and is taking me and another friend with her. I'm so looking forward to it. I've been so, so busy with work before Christmas, then cooking/catering all over Christmas/New Year - the instant I stopped I went down with a horrible cold, that I'm still suffering from.

So 4 days in a health farm, with someone else cooking for me, lots of lovely treatments and books to read will be bliss!

MamaG · 10/01/2008 23:31

ooh lucky you, you'll hae a great time.

I haven't heard from vacua but feel dreadful just kicking her out...

Staceym21AtLast · 10/01/2008 23:47

madam

(after pointing out book is now wrapped and ready to go! )

thegrowlygus · 11/01/2008 06:40

Mine all ready to go today.
I chose the 'high brow' choice so you can all open it and think "what the f*?!"

In my defence, it is good, interesting and short!

Excitement building here too and resisting the temptation to work out the initals!

Heifer · 11/01/2008 08:19

Hell, I'm not ready!

Haven't got my email MamaG.....

Heifer · 11/01/2008 08:22

oh oh Hold on - it was in the JUNK MAIL Stupid stupid hotmail.. didn't have the email re viagra in the junk mail but does my book club, no way..

Right, I didn't log on last night so didn't realise that posting was today..

Better go and find a jiffy bag or such like and get my arse down to the post office!..

Happy reading all...

MamaG · 11/01/2008 10:12

I bet there'll be loads of us going "shit! I didn't know i had to post today!" and sending them out tomorrow.

Yours is in the post heif

kittylouise · 11/01/2008 10:15

I am a VERY sad individual and keep looking at the quiche thread titles to work out what the initials mean.

Book ready (in jiffy bag) to take to the post office this afternoon. Oh, I hope people like it (and won't open it and go 'what the ....!')

kslatts · 11/01/2008 10:36

I have just read MamaG's email and this thread, I'm at work but my book is at home, really sorry but I'm not going to be able to send it until tomorrow, I will send it first class so hopefully it will arrive on Monday.

sophiewd · 11/01/2008 10:41

Just back from PO so hopefully should arrive tomorrow

seeker · 11/01/2008 11:33

Just back from the post office. Embarassingly excited about this!

BecauseImWorthIt · 11/01/2008 12:22

Book has been posted!

thegrowlygus · 11/01/2008 15:45

OK - have restarted my thread with the correct initials as, in my sleepless state this morning I managed to put in the wrong initials.
I am a dimwit.

I am also reconsidering my vague ideas of proofreading as an additional career!
