[swissmiss]

A Master thread for all our general stuff .

Wow Sounds exciting Steamedtreacle !

Good luck at uni JB.

Current situation is:

Yes - Wheely, Cathcat,Lightshines Simpson, Caykon

No - Swissmiss, Headinclouds, Steamedtreacle B

Don't know - Team Ed, Moomin (but offline at mo), Madamy

Hi
I have not had
Swissmiss - City of Light, Lauren Balfour
Wheelybug - Mister Pip, Lloyd Jones
Cathcat - The Observations by Jane Harris

nor have I had my own back.

Any ideas?

Oh shit, I sent Mr Pip in May I think. AM trying really hard to finish the Observations, was waiting for another book to prompt me to send it and keep forgetting, shall post it asap.
I didn;t get them until later which is why I am so behind(if that makes any sense)

I haven't had swissmiss's, lightshines or either of mine back.

Who are you Qualitytime ? TeamEd ?

Doh! Am jack

lol at Jack!
Thanks for the update - although I never did get the Mister Pip one.

Had a quick look this morning to try and work out where this year's books are. This is what I can glean -

Swissmiss -COL - Last seen with TeamEd
Wheely - MP - posted by JB, not arrived
CAthcat - TO - with JB
HITC - CA - finished by Cathcat, on way back to HITC
Steamed - TEWWG - Back with Steamed
Madamy - Lost long ago
LSITD - with TeamEd

So, I can't find any info re:

Simpson - 44 scotland st
CayKon - Wasp Factory
Moomin - The Summer Bk
TeamEd - The Welsh Girl
JackB - Girl with dragon tattoo & Midwich Cuckoos

If anyone has any further info let me know !

If it helps track things down I don't have any at the moment. Last one I had was Case Histories which bypassed you (Wheely) and went to Cathcat who's already sent "home" to HITC.
Still not seen The Observations or Mr Pip or had my own, City of Light, back. Think that ties in with what Lightshines has said too!

I still need to post CH back to HITC actually...just in case you thought the Royal Mail had eaten it.

sorry not been on to update, RL getting in the way

I have had my book back and I still have caykon's which I will post on to her in the next day or so, I promise!!!

Caykon - book has been posted back to you today

Right Ho - I think I will email those I haven't heard from as to whether they want to do another round. Shall we try and get started in September those who are carrying on ? That gives a bit of time to get some new people on board and time for the current round to finish off.

I posted Moomin's The Summer Book back to her a while ago, at the same time as The Midwich Cuckoos - so hopefully she has them both now and just hasn't managed to get back online yet!

SO Back with owners -

wheely - you are a star, I bet you are great at those logic puzzles where you colour in the little boxes by process of elimination!

I have almost finished The Obs.

Am up for a new round starting in September.
In fact, am already thinking about my book!

I have finished The Observations today, commented online and posted it on.

I have my own copy of 'Mister Pip' which I will read next and am happy to pass on to keep things going to the end!!

Gold star to Lightshines .

I did used to like those logic puzzles too. Hmmm...

Right well I have now heard from everyone other than Madamy although I have emailed her.

We have carrying on next yr -

Wheely
Cathcat
Lightshines
Simpson
Caykon
TeamEd
Moomin

When I get a chance I'll start a new thread asking for new Fur Quits - I will assume Madamy isn't joining us so we're looking for 5 people, with a view to starting in September. It has been requested that books are no more than an inch thick in order to facilitate reading in time and postage costs so if you're starting to think of your next book, please bear this in mind (the one I'd thought of, is thicker htan this -boooo).

Ooh, I have received my last 2 books today, COL and TSN, have already tried to read TSN numerous times and just can't enjoy it so will pass that on asap and read COL.
hope that makes sense (is jack)

Have started a thread here asking for new people.

I'll email all those staying on so you have my email address and when you decide on a book can you let me know ? I have addresses and names from SwissMiss.

Email has been sent to all staying on, so if you haven't got it let me know !

As said before, books should be under an inch thick.

Am off to peruse the shelves.
