Hope everyone's found their book thread-- and that I've not left anyone out!

A quick reminder: you're always posting to the same person so:

DontDreamItBeIt send your book to MyBabysInTheGarden
PrettyMum send your book to DontDreamItBeIt
WheresTheHamster send your book to PrettyMum
DiscoverLife send your book to WheresTheHamster
EachPeachPearMum send your book to DiscoverLife
AndyRobo237 send your book to EachPeachPearMum
Blanki send your book to AndyRobo237
MegBussett send your book to Blanki
cynarasamba send your book to MegBussett
yogabird send your book to cynarasamba
mairseydotes send your book to yogabird
MyBabysInTheGarden send your book to mairseydotes

Mailings are the first Monday of the month, so next posting date is 4th February.

How does everyone feel about posting early if you've finished the book? I'm up for it but I don't want to put pressure on anyone who's taking longer to read theirs.

Don't worry, I'm in the middle of a book at the moment so not sitting waiting for the postman.
Hope you feel better soon

Got my book today ta! It is a thin one, so I reckon I can read it this weekend when DH is off - he can look after the kids!!

discoverlife · 13/02/2008 19:58

Received mine today thanks. Definatly not something I would even look at the cover of. So will see what its like next week when I see if I can get away for a couple of days with DH.

DontDreamItBeIt · 26/02/2008 11:33

Posting day is coming around again....Are we all ready?

yogabird · 26/02/2008 20:58

hey i'm ready and i'm getting yours this time dontdreamitbeit. I posted today but only 2nd class and with a note to the postie to walk slowly

MegBusset · 27/02/2008 20:57

I have to confess that I am not going to finish Yogabird's book in time this month -- I blame my parents, who have been staying for a week, so it's been tough to find time to read!

Luckily it is one that I already have on my bookshelf, so I will post on the book club copy and finish re-reading my own copy.

EachPeachPearMum · 27/02/2008 21:01

btw... I have written Blanki's name in her book
Will send to discoverlife this weekend...

DontDreamItBeIt · 28/02/2008 08:24

I'll be posting mine this morning.

prettymum · 28/02/2008 13:37

wheresthehamster · 28/02/2008 16:23

Will post tomorrow or Sat

yogabird · 28/02/2008 19:57

sorry it's a bit of a long one MegBusset i do hope you are enjoying it though. It's a long time since i read it and am looking forward to it when it gets round to me again! I'm between books now and awaiting my next with interest, have resorted to reading that Cherie Blair offering about being married to Downing Street 'In the Goldfishbowl' or something and am actually quite enjoying it so far.

cyanarasamba · 28/02/2008 21:00

Got my new book today thanks yogabird, so I'm all sorted!

MegBusset · 28/02/2008 22:58

When is the last posting date? Am having a last-minute push to see if I can finish it in time!

DontDreamItBeIt · 29/02/2008 08:40

We're due to post on Monday Meg
(Or as soon as possible after that)

andyrobo237 · 29/02/2008 20:53

Ladies I have to leave Mumsnet, I will post the book on straight away, but please take me off the list for next month.
