mumwhereareyou - I got it, thanks.

I need to finish my library book first, then I'll make a start on it.

Sent mine to differentyear but I was late sending it as my mother was visiting (gone now )

saffy202 · 21/02/2008 22:49

I didn't get the first book from gordieracer so couldn't send it on to forkhandles. Not sure what to do now? I could send on another but could end up in the same predicament next time around?

forkhandles · 22/02/2008 10:52

Saffy you are sending to me aren't you! that would explain it then. Did the book get lost or is Gorgieracer not taking part? Have you got the next one from her? I don't mind not having one this month, if the next one will come, it just mean that there will be a gap in the circle when the books are sent round I suppose.

What else could we do?

saffy202 · 22/02/2008 11:46

Haven't received any books from gordieracer and I haven't seen her reply to any of the threads about the book club so I am unsure if she is still taking part.

forkhandles · 22/02/2008 13:30

I wonder what's happened to the book that Ihateironing sent her? So you've had nothing to read so far? Thant's a shame

ChirpyGirl · 22/02/2008 15:20

Hi ladies, I have emailed her but got no reply so I am not sure what is happening either. Also differentYearbutthesamecack has moved house so I am not sure if she has got squonks book!
(Squonk, if you see this can you say when you posted it so dybtsc can check her forwarded post?)

Not sure what has happened to ihateironing's book now but I can send you another saffy, fear not!
(I am getting rid of loads of books so have some lying around, but I can't guarantee intellectualism......)!

saffy202 · 22/02/2008 15:54

Don't worry about the intellectualism - I'll read anything

I can post another book onto forkhandles on Monday so at least she has something to read and to keep things going.

If gorgieracer doesn't reply we may have to just miss her out.

ChirpyGirl · 22/02/2008 18:59

I would say to miss ehr out unless I hear from her to say otherwise, I'll mail ihateironing later with your details for next time round.

mumwhereareyou · 23/02/2008 10:29

Hi

Sorry Tigerfeet, i still haven't recieved your book yet, just wonder if you have managed to send it yet or not.

bossybritches · 24/02/2008 21:27

Chirpy if DYSC has a big house move on tell her not to worry I'll put another one in the pipeline for this month if you want?

Or I could just skip a turn let me know what's easiest?!

bossy, I assume she has mail forwarding as she just asked me if squonk had sent hers

forkhandles I have a book all picked out but can't drive at mo so will post it asap.

And didn't it all seem so easy!

OP posts:
bossybritches · 25/02/2008 22:49

No probs DYSC -presumed you were still sorting out from the move!! Thanks

We'll get there!

Chirpy hope you are OK?

ChirpyGirl · 26/02/2008 21:01

I'm okay thanks, just have labrynthitis so can't drive as get random dizzy spells. I am trying to sort royal mail online postage for something else so was going to do this as well, but printer is playing silly buggers!

bossybritches · 26/02/2008 21:40

Oh yuk that's horrid- I remember years ago having it & I couldn't wash my hair for ages as every time I bent over the bath I fell over & felt sick!!

Hope it wears off soon!

forkhandles · 27/02/2008 21:13

Thanks Chirpy, that's kind of you.

forkhandles · 28/02/2008 20:07

arrived today you star - managed to read a bit during ballet this afternoon, can't wait for more! Thanks again x

ChirpyGirl · 28/02/2008 21:20

NO worries! I used the online postage thing from royal mail, it's GENIUS! I could print it off at night and then post it at the postbox down the road, no queueing or trekking to the post office...it's the future!

I chose that as a lot of people have preconceptions about the theme of his books, but they are quite wrong...IYSWIM...!

ihateironing · 05/03/2008 21:58

right girls big apologies here, i have 2 books here im sorry but i havent sent on my first book and now its about time to send on so who and where do i send them 2?

forkhandles · 06/03/2008 14:19

Rosmerta - would you like your next book now? I have just finished it. Or is that going to confuse things?!

rosmerta · 07/03/2008 11:04

Forkhandles, I don't mind, I've finished mine as well so could pass that on. Or shall we set a date for everyone to send their books by?

mumwhereareyou · 07/03/2008 14:55

I didn't receive a book this month, but am more than happy to send one of my own on to Sqonk.If that is acceptable will do, just let me know the date and will send it on.

bossybritches · 08/03/2008 11:53

Ditto for me Chirpy- I'd like to try & keep this going!

ChirpyGirl · 10/03/2008 19:56

Hello, hello!
Have been offline as went to stay with my mum while I got better and she keeps her computer unplugged under her bed unless she needs it!

I am all ready to send on so shall get my arse in gear and send an email out reminding everyone and linking to this thread so copy and paste the list with sent next to your name and we shall take it from there!
