JJ where's the thread you are starting then? I want to come over for a bun fight!!

jamaisjedors · 05/06/2010 21:31

Sorry to hear that HC - hope you are ok.

Jason, hold on to it no worries, in fact when you are finished please just give it away to a charity shop or someone you hate.

I liked the book enough to read twice (but I am often desperate for reading material living abroad) but I chose it to pass on because I thought I was never going to get it back.

Next book is a book I loved so I'm glad we are all organised and "know" each other now.

PA - I am gearing myself up for it [cowardly emoticon].

Contrary to what you might think I am actually usually fairly non-confrontational on here!

Will direct you all to it when I do so so you can stick up for me.

have a nice weekend everyone.

PA - I'm confused do you want me to send TGOTL or not, i thought you'd said not but also think i've seen another message where you do want it?

I've not had another other books so nothing else to pass on sorry, think i've missed out on both of the awol books

PositiveAttitude · 06/06/2010 20:26

Hi Lovebeing5434 , sorry to confuse you.
I have read TGOTL, not with this bookswap, just from here at home, if you get me, so that one can be sent wherever it needs to go. If wiseoldelf wants it, I normally send on to her, but I could let you have her address and it could go straight to her, if thats ok.
The one I wanted was the religious cult one. Dont know what its called, but love that type of thing. I think it is one that is stuck with Cariboo.

MajorPettigrew · 06/06/2010 20:38

TGOTL is mine.

No need to send it back to me - save on some postage.
If you want to keep it LB34 feel free.

PositiveAttitude · 06/06/2010 21:13

I forgot about your namechange Major, sorry.

MajorPettigrew · 06/06/2010 21:31

Sorry - I should keep to WOE for this.

I like to name change a fair bit (just in case I'm on MN and say things that I shouldn't!)

jamaisjedors · 07/06/2010 19:35

Jason thank you for the book, I got it today.

I am preparing a final email for cariboo, and I am also going to send a letter snail mail in the hope of getting some of your books back girls.

LBAM have you had it yet - it's flying cloud's book - tgwtdt?

LoveBeing34 · 07/06/2010 19:47

Cheers major.

JJ don't think so, can you cat me the name?

PositiveAttitude · 07/06/2010 20:25

As its the last month I do think we can type the names of the books on here, cos if you dont know what it is you are the only one who doesnt know, because everyone else has had it!!

Will let you all have a posting address for next time later this week, ok?

LoveBeing34 · 07/06/2010 21:36

Pmsl see that's why you're in charge PA!

JasonIsaacsIsRatherGorgeous · 09/06/2010 17:07

Received my book today HC1 many thanks. Hope you're doing OK.

HC1 · 10/06/2010 08:37

Am fine thanks. Booked in for C-section on Monday as this one is transverse like DS1 was so am on count down.

jamaisjedors · 10/06/2010 10:54

PositiveAttitude · 11/06/2010 19:44

HC1 - how exciting . A bokkswap thread baby!! Hope it all goes well for you.

JJ come on girl, where's that thread you were going to start?

I have sorted out all the details for the next circuit, but JJ I seem to have misplaced your address. I'm sorry, I am sure i had it cos I did all the organising at work yesterday, but cant find it on the discussion board tonight. Any chance you could message me with it, then I will do a message to everyone with addresses and route of books etc.

Are you all happy for me to send you everyone's addressses, then we will all have everyones address if ever we need it.

Here we go girls...... summer is coming..... book club is sorted ..... wine to be drunk .... babies to be born ..... errrrrr housework to do!

jamaisjedors · 11/06/2010 21:01

Good luck HC1 look forward to hearing about baby HC next week - no pressure or anything

loler · 12/06/2010 12:18

Sneaking on here while dh has taken dc out so that I can prepare for friends to arrive - so got to be quick!!!

Good luck for monday hc - are you going to Cheltenham? My Dsis had her last there in Jan - she was very impressed (as was I when she told me about the amromatherapy and nice floaty stuff) - I had mine in Stafford hospital (the one currently undergoing a public enquiry for patient care!) - Good luck and hope you get lots of chocolate and pampering.

So should I have a ritual burning of the maman d book when I'm done?

HC1 · 13/06/2010 11:00

Thanks everyone for messages will keep you up to date.

Yes I am going to Cheltenham which was good last time when I had ds1 nearly three years a go. Am taking my book swap book to read while I wait tmrw so will probably get to finish it!

MajorPettigrew · 13/06/2010 19:40

Good luck for tomorrow HC1.

Can't wait to hear your news!!

jamaisjedors · 15/06/2010 21:39

Any news HC? Am not too impatient YET because I'm sure you will need a few days to recover... but then we expect to hear all the gory detail about it.

OP posts:
PositiveAttitude · 17/06/2010 06:37

Announcement yet? Anyone know anything??

loler · 17/06/2010 20:36

Have also popped in for a nose/news.

I'm sat on computer (not literally) listening for nose - DD is 7 today and has got a friend for their first sleep over - all is quiet - can I really be this lucky? feeling some sort of dread!

PositiveAttitude · 18/06/2010 10:04

Hi Loler Happy birthday to mini-loler for yesterday.
Did she really go straight to sleep with a sleepover? My, I cant believe that!

Had to read your post about 6 times to work out why you were listening to your nose????? Had visions of a drippy nose making disgusting noises to you and wondered why on earth you would own up to such a thing! (lol ) Plus while you were actually sat on your laptop, like you do!!

Oh well, that was an entertaining 5 minute break from work, better get back to it......

jamaisjedors · 20/06/2010 19:37

So how are you all getting on with this month's books?

I am getting into mine, but I doubt very much I will have finished by the end of the month- it is HUGE!

I will do my absolute best though, I have a long work journey coming up on 29th so that could do it.
