BIWI 1st of June.

Not posted mine off yet will get it off on friday, sorry.

FiveGoMadInDorset · 11/06/2009 11:04

BIWI sorry have been away, so book is going in the post today, should be with you tomorrow.

Ellceell have no book so don't know if you have sent one and it has gone astray.

BecauseImWorthIt · 14/06/2009 12:37

Aaaaaaaaaaaaargh - I'm completely losing the plot on this one!

FiveGoMad - I've got your book, thanks.

Will post off my book tomorrow, and will make sure I read the latest one to send off on 1 July. Promise.

BTW - is no-one bothering to write a review of the books any more?

ellceeell · 16/06/2009 21:10

leoleo - book arrived thanks.
FiveGoMadInDorset - sorry, sorry, haven't read either of the two leoleo has sent me - I'll try to get one off at the weekend.

BecauseImWorthIt · 17/06/2009 14:05

Book posted today - sorry Burpy - would have been yesterday but PO was closed.

FiveGoMadInDorset · 30/06/2009 22:12

Not sure what to do as have no book to pass on.

BecauseImWorthIt · 30/06/2009 23:49

No worries - I haven't quite finished the last one you sent me yet! (But sorry Burpy - means this one will be a bit late as well)

kslatts · 01/07/2009 18:38

My book arrived today

Growleygus - I'll post your book tomorrow

thegrowlygus · 04/07/2009 20:07

no probs!

BecauseImWorthIt · 06/07/2009 13:54

Burpy - are you desperate for your book? It's just that I haven't finished it yet, (about 2/3 the way through) and I'm really enjoying it.

I reckon I will have finished it within the next couple of days. If you want it sooner, let me know.

FiveGoMadInDorset · 06/07/2009 17:42

Still no book from Ellceeell

FiveGoMadInDorset · 11/07/2009 20:06

I think I am done now, no book for 2 months, BurpyErnie hasn't been on MN for a month, I have 2 books out there somewhere plus bought 2 more replacement books as people just stop sending to me. It has been great fun and I wish it wasn't ending this way.

BecauseImWorthIt · 12/07/2009 23:09

BurpyErnie is supposed to be in charge of the quiche as well!

Who is left here?

I'd like to carry on. Why don't we take stock of who is here and wants to carry on?

If no-one wants to do carry on, perhaps we should organise to get the books back to all those who first put them into the quiche?

FiveGoMadInDorset · 13/07/2009 20:32

I'd like to carry on. I will put a call out on a new thread if you want and email BurpyErnie to see whats happening with her. If you like I will get email addresses, do a round up and then take it from there regarding books and maybe getting a couple more members.

thegrowlygus · 13/07/2009 20:40

I was enjoying it - although not often getting the books

Still not got the last one kslatts?

I think I send on fairly regularly - although I sent two at once last time as I had read the second one, and now I am at a bit of a loss as to whether I am meant to have had another and already sent it on or not...

MamaG · 13/07/2009 22:30

Ah I remember these days well

What a royal PITA getting this organised...its a shame as it was supposed to be fab.

Right, I would be interested in rejoining the quiche, but maybe we should just start again with a smaller, more committed group.

There is no way we could get original books back to folk, as so many people just disappeared! Can I suggest that everyone just keeps the books they have and we start a new, smaller, group? I'm sure I could lure Heifer back, for one. She was always a good sender IIRC.

MamaG · 13/07/2009 22:34

Looking briefly at thread, how about a tiny quiche comprising

thegrowlygus
fivegomadindorset
becauseimworthit
kslatts
mamag
heifer

We all put a book in, in 6 months time we get that book back and then we start again? That way we know that everyone in teh quiche is committed to sending, because it is terribly disappointing to religiously send and not receive

If I've forgotten a stalwart of the quiche, do let me knwo! I still have old email going mamagbookclub at hotmail dot co dot uk [meaningful look]

FiveGoMadInDorset · 13/07/2009 22:37

Are you rejoining us? How fantastic I have started a new thread here but that sounds great. How is BabyG and your DH going self employed. Can't believe DS is now 1.

kslatts · 14/07/2009 06:53

growleygus - I sent a book a couple of weeks ago. Did you receive that one?

I have now received another one which I'm just starting.

thegrowlygus · 14/07/2009 07:49

No - never got the last one kslatts
Unless the dog ate it (which, given what he has been eating lately, wouldn't surprise me that much!)

Last one I got was The Secret Friend which I posted straight onto leoleo as i had already read it!

A mini-quiche eh? Is that like the mini quiches you can get in M&S cos they are quite tasty...

BecauseImWorthIt · 14/07/2009 12:22

Tarts, that we shall all become...

thegrowlygus · 14/07/2009 20:54

mini-tarts? Or big tarts?!

kslatts · 17/07/2009 08:51

thegrowlygus - the last one I sent was The Accidental, it was about 2 weeks ago.

thegrowlygus · 26/07/2009 12:38

Oh.
It hasn't got here. Either that or the growlydog has eaten it. I have read it already however.
