Fantastic! I'm so glad you haven't already read it; I tried to choose something that I haven't seen mentioned on MN!

wheresthehamster · 10/11/2008 16:02

Received today, thanks Flame. Something I've thought about picking up in the library but never have

mybabysinthegarden · 10/11/2008 17:05

Received both books Jas, many thanks! Bookswapper, I finally posted today-- sorry for the delay, especially as it's a bit of an epic! I found it quite a quick read though.

Finally named ds last week with just minutes to spare before the deadline (we get three weeks in Scotland before they come after you) and guess what? He's named after a character in one of the book swap books!

wheresthehamster · 10/11/2008 18:08

Oh no, please say it wasn't Gilbert

Jas · 10/11/2008 20:45

One that we already know from the last swap, or one to come??
Will you tell us?[nosey]

DS was Boy for the full 6 weeks here before we named him

come on mybabys....let us know....

mybabysinthegarden · 11/11/2008 14:36

right book, wheresthehamster (quite minor character in it)

wheresthehamster · 11/11/2008 15:54

The only other one I can remember is Bernard. No. Please say you haven't....

mybabysinthegarden · 13/11/2008 15:21

No, not (now) Bernard! It's Winston (another tenant at Queenie's house). DH and I were congratulating ourselves on our originality and now I've just discovered Billie Piper had a Winston only a couple of days later.

Jas · 13/11/2008 17:30

OOh, I have a lovely neighbor called Winston A good name.

Winston is fab....

I have your book...looks good!

wheresthehamster · 13/11/2008 22:23

I love Winston as well. Good choice!

yogabird · 19/11/2008 22:00

Bookswapper - you are right, it's like marmite your book. I love marmite but, sadly your book is not for me and so i have abandoned sorry

Jas · 24/11/2008 13:55

I'm ready to post again.

I know I'm early, but am worried I'll leave it and forget, so I'll be sending mine on this week.

yogabird · 24/11/2008 22:12

Cyanarasamba - if you are around, could you please say what sort of condition my book was in when it got to you from Amazon? I need to give feedback on the seller. Hope it was ok. Thanks- hope also that you are enjoying it.

Flamesparrow · 25/11/2008 19:26

Gah, i'm running late already! I plan a mammoth reading session in the morning when I have got the orders sorted

cyanarasamba · 26/11/2008 21:02

Hi yogabird, yes the book arrived in perfect condition thanks! Enjoyed reading it, just need to post my comments and send it on to Meg.

MegBusset · 01/12/2008 21:20

What date are we supposed to be posting in Dec? I am running a bit late on this one, had to spend a lot of time this month revising for my driving test!

wheresthehamster · 01/12/2008 21:23

I thought we should have posted today? I'm going to try and get to the post office tomorrow.

Jas · 01/12/2008 21:33

Yes, posting day is first Monday in the month(today).

I did mine on Friday[smug]

andyrobo237 · 01/12/2008 21:34

I will be posting this week!

Jas · 01/12/2008 21:37

Did you pass Meg?

OP posts:
cyanarasamba · 01/12/2008 21:43

I posted early as I 'lost' a week somewhere - sorry if that threw you Meg! How was the test?

MegBusset · 01/12/2008 21:49

I did pass!

Will crack on with the book and get it posted on asap -- it's pretty short so shouldn't cause too much delay.
