Hiya

The following people want in:

Autumnlady
Dozymare
TheDrsWife
Bubbaz
Yorky
PinkyMinky

Any more for any more???

I think the sensible way to do it is that each person sends their book to the same person every month to avoind confusion ie:

Autumnlady to Dozymare, Dozymare to DrsWife etc etc

We could do this on a certain day every month such as the 30th or something? I am open to offers on how fast people read etc.

Let me know what you think

Bubbaz, i'll post yours tomorrow if thats ok. i didnt get a chance to read it which is so unlike me. let me know what i missed!! Ive committed to taking time for myself this month so really looking forward to my next book.

bubbaz · 15/07/2008 13:20

Drs wife if you can read it in the next week or 2 hang onto it a bit longer if you like. I am in the middle of another book at the mo and am quite a quick reader so 2 weeks is way long enough for me. Its up to you don't want you to miss out

twinklingfairy · 15/07/2008 16:53

Doh! I totally forgot to send my book today, sorry Pinky.
I did remember to get it from my mum though. OK thats not true, she gave it to me
I will defo do it tomorrow cos I have to send other things too.

Tinkerisdead · 15/07/2008 19:47

ohhh bubbaz, i could read it in days! if your okay to hold on a few days that would be brill?

PInkyminkyohnooo · 15/07/2008 19:52

that would be great, Twinkling, I'm off on holiday on Sunday. Not sure how much reading time I'll get, because we are camping with friends but I can pretend to myself!

Drswife, if it's my book- pursuit of happiness, you'll read it in a couple of days tops- it's one of those types of book.

ChocOrange05 · 16/07/2008 09:22

Sorry Dozy, I meant to get on and let you know that I did get it, cheers

BTW what were you getting from Cath Kidson!!

Dozymare · 21/07/2008 20:31

Twinkling Can't BELIEVE you got that book - especially as I didn't pay the postage!!! i got the teachers bookbags in the sale...bargain at £12 EACH!!!

Now, who is meant to be sending me a book?????

DM x

Yorky · 21/07/2008 21:03

It arrived safely thanks ChocO, before the weekend

twinklingfairy · 21/07/2008 22:47

It had a 2nd class postage sticker on it?

Cath Kidson stuff is just so lovely, but expensive. And you can't get similar material anywhere!!

Dozymare · 22/07/2008 07:42

hi Twinkling - that is because I ordered 2 bookbags in their sale for the teachers at DS's school...bargain at £12 each and Oh so lovely! I just put your book in the bag, doing my bit to recycle but forgot to add postage - so Kath Kidston paid for 2 lots of delivery!!!!!!!

Enjoy the book!!! Very different from the Hand Maidens Tale but that is waht I love about this book club circle!!!

Now, who is sending me a book as I can't remember without checking?????? Has everyone else got their book?????

bubbaz · 22/07/2008 08:01

I haven't but thats because Drswife was hanging onto it but I knew about that. Chocorange did you get yours OK?

LackaDAISYcal · 22/07/2008 10:01

Dozy...i am the guilty culprit

all ready to go, but with DD being poorly last week I kept forgetting to take it to the PO. will be zooming it's way to you ovenight tonight, I promise

ChocOrange05 · 22/07/2008 10:36

Tinkerisdead · 22/07/2008 11:31
