That meant I did, thank you. Not a stroppy "I did thank you" when I clearly didn't

janeite · 28/03/2009 14:42

Oh it's okay. It's just that I asked somebody at work to post it for me and had a horrible feeling it might still be sitting under a pile of papers somewhere.

andirobo · 29/03/2009 14:46

I have nearly finished this mammoth book - hopefully tonight!

Waiting for the next round of posting - but no hurry!! Got another book from my Mum here to read in the mean time!

ok..who wants to guess where I spent last weekend...

Yes, the hospital with DS1. He was diagnosed from pneumonia and needed oxygen to help him breathe...

and DS2 had a skin infection.

So I have been giving seven doses of antibiotics a day to two children!!!!

but I am posting anyway...

this really has been a top year for illness in my house!

MegBusset · 03/04/2009 10:26

Posted my books to Andyrobo this morning.

Don't forget I'm ducking out as from now, so Cynarasamba needs to post straight to Andyrobo...

Enjoy the rest of the books

andirobo · 03/04/2009 21:09

Thanks Meg, sorry you are dropping out, but can understand!

I posted my large book today to you EPPM!

wheresthehamster · 06/04/2009 23:53

I'm going to post in the next couple of days. I've barely started the book (have spent 3 weeks frantically trying to catch up with coursework) and am disappointed not to have finished it as it looked like it was going to be an interesting read.

Sorry you're leaving Meg, hope everything goes ok

yogabird · 08/04/2009 16:41

posted today but... post office woman said don't hold your breath cos it's Easter with 2 Bank Holidays so... get out there and enjoy all of the sunny waeather we are bound to have instead of being stuck indoors reading!! Sorry it's so late - no excuse really since I didn't finish either of them - yep, 2 again this time. No excuse that is except not having a kitchen and being at my mum's place!

cyanarasamba · 08/04/2009 21:17

Anyrobo can you CAT me? (think I've subscribed to this but not sure how it works!) I need your address to post the next book to you. Thanks!

wheresthehamster · 14/04/2009 10:45

Flame - have you sent me a book yet?

I've been away and have visions of someone swiping it out of the letter-box and me being none the wiser.

If you haven't sent one - no pressure - I haven't got time to read at the moment anyway

Flamesparrow · 14/04/2009 17:36

I am coming in to say I am going to post on the books I have (sorry, I have 3 - will read bookswappers then send that one), then drop out until after the baby is born if it is ok with you lot (would like to restart the next cycle though) My brain is too fuzzy for new books, I am just comfort reading old ones.

andirobo · 14/04/2009 21:07

cyan - I tried to CAt you but it wont let me! Would you try CATing me - pick the envelope at the end of my name, and see if it works that way!

yogabird · 17/04/2009 21:19

Poor Bookswapper, hope that your ds's are on the mend now - you really have had a year of bad luck illness wise so far - the upturn must be on its way now, surely? Anyway, you probably have been too busy to post the latest, don't worry am reading something brilliant that i found in the library... but if you have posted, then perhaps it's gone astray.
Speaking of which, has anyone read mine since February - no-one has commented and perhaps that's got lost

bookswapper · 17/04/2009 22:48

I am dealing with a second bout of conjunctivitis in DS2 and some unspecified night sweat/coughing through the night which wakes DS1.

On the bright side though, DH has sent the book first class today!!! So you should have it tomorrow or Monday!

i have been crap i admit and I hope this circle doesn't fall apart!

andirobo · 18/04/2009 08:45

I am half way through this months book and enjoying it.

Cyan - I have sent you my address!!

Flamesparrow · 19/04/2009 18:06

I still haven't posted. I am not normally this useless with the swaps - tis all the sickness and hormones melting my brain. FIL is still waiting for summat I was meant to send in Feb

Jas · 20/04/2009 19:47

Hello

I'm back from hols, so am ready for another book when you finish it Prettymum

Sorry you're going to drop out too Flame.

I'm hoping we aren't going to all collapse in a heap. I've had all the books I was expecting so far, and even though some books aren't being commented on much, I think they are all still in circulation.

Hello all - may be we need to do a 'head and book' count to see which books are where, and if any are lost at the peril of the Royal Mail!

So let the list begin!!

I'm still here and still in contact with EachPeach. Would be sorry to see you drop out Flame but totally understand. If you do decide to drop out, perhaps you could just let EachPeach have the details of who I'd need to post to instead? Dp has been quite well-trained in taking trips to the Post Office for you now!

Books - I haven't got one at the moment, as EachPeach will send the latest one straight to Flame as I don't want to read it (tried to read her first and it was more than I could stand, sorry!). Have had all of the others no prob at all so far.

bookswapper · 21/04/2009 21:33

Hi there

I haven't had a book this month for the first time

So there must be someone with more than one book!! Else they are lost in the post

wheresthehamster · 22/04/2009 16:19

Can't add to the list but I sent MegBusset's to prettymum a couple of weeks ago. I'm waiting for one from Flame which, if my calculations are correct, should be cyanarasamba's.

Jas · 22/04/2009 20:27

I'm fairly sure Prettymum has Andyrobos book still as well. It is a big one and she was keeping it to read as I was away
