The Fur Quits - Book Swapping Chat

[swissmiss]

A Master thread for all our general stuff .

It's here! You are very organised. Not finished my last one yet.

hello, hello - book club bermuda triangle type person here! I cannot believe this has happened again! Forget gun crime in Nottingham - this is book crime!

I've just collected a package from the PO which turned out to be the book I sent to TeamEd over 2 weeks ago with the address label all torn off

My PC has been on the blink for ages and finally got a new one delivered and connected up yesterday and I'd not had chance to wade through email etc so I'd not seen the one sent from swissmiss a week ago asking me about the book!

Weirdly, both 'lost' books were sent from the same PO on my way to work so I think I'll pop in and have a word with them.

What should I do? I can send both to you TeamEd or should I get the postal address of the person you send to and send it straight on there?

Madamy - thanks for you email. Makes most sense for you to send book you've just finished to TeamEd and the previous (returned) one direct to JackBauer. I'll email you an address. Otherwise we'll end up in a bit of a mess with future sending on.

TeamEd - Hope that's ok? I'll email you the name of the book you've missed so if you fancy reading it you can maybe get a copy from the library???

Wheely - Will finish book before end of next week, it's only a short one. Am busy manically trying to sort filing DH's co. accts and crap like that this weekend or I'd be curled up reading it now.

swissmiss - that sounds the best plan! If you email jackbauer's postal address I'll send it straight there.

sorry to hear of book going missing again...

Have finished my book today so will post it on this week

No probs swissmiss - I am RL bookclub free in december so should have plenty of time (ha ha) especially if its a short one !

headintheclouds I posted to you today - envelope properly sealed this time

Cathcat Thanks so much -it arrived today!!
We dont seem to have postal problems that others are experiencing up here in Manchester!
Simpson-promise I'll post yours on Friday(working Mum, karate for kids and nativity play etc.. have prevented me sending yet.)-Ive struggled with the on-line postage this time otherwise you'd have received this by now

posted book on today

I will post my book tomorrow, can't get to post office before as we have impetigo plague in the house!

madamy, sorry for the delay in posting. I have both DCs running temperatures and wheezing and I'm feeling a bit rubbish myself. I'm hoping to post tomorrow or Saturday.

Moomin, sorry for massive slowness in posting again this month! Will try and post at the start of next week, hope this is ok

wheely - eerm, was meaning to post book with my ebay stuff this am but i can't find it atm! i left it on the bottom step of the stairs, all ready to put in an envelope, but dh threw his toys out the pram about the chaotic state of the house and took it upon himself to do some tidying and now doesn't know where he put it. found next months one in the kids book case so it could be anywhere, will look again tomorrow!

moomin no worries, have had lurgy (?sp!!!) here too so only just posted my books today.
teamed and jackbauer think I may have missed last post, but sent books 1st class so should be with you by end of the week. Posted from a different PO THAN BEFORE LOL! oops, sorry about caps.

I'm so sorry, madamy I still haven't posted as we've been having a truly hellish time over the past few days. Tomorrow, hopefully.

Caykon just wanted to let you know that the book arrived safely yesterday, thanks very much! Looking forward to reading it.

Shit. Havne';t posted as was on pox watch as well as Impetigo getting worse. I have to go to the post office friday, will add it to my pile of crap to post! Sorry!

sorry not been on for a bit

RL been getting in the way

Sorry to hear of poorly people

have received book and getting stuck in on page 80 or so...

Not done review on last months one yet

Promise I will try and do it tomorrow...

Any luck finding the book yet Swissmiss ?

wheely ordered a new copy last night of course it's sod's law the original will turn up later today!

wheely now i really feel stupid. was just hanging some washing on a radiator, looked at the kids bookcase which I've looked thru countless times over the last week or so and guess what popped out at me! Cancelled my amazon order! Off to Dr's with a poorly DD2 in a moment, will post it on my way home. It's a very, very short book so fingers crossed you'll have time to read it.
