Tillyfernackerpants--if you have my book (one word title begining K) please could you write Piebald in the front of it, i didnt know to do that. Thanks-hope you enjoy it

dinkystinky · 27/09/2011 11:45

Right - no sign of JK on here, so Afternoons - please can you send your book to Swampy. Swampy - can you pm Afternoons your address. It does mean Electric doesnt get a book this time round, sorry, and will mean each month we'll have one person who doesnt get a book - however if JK pops back in, we'll get her to post the book she was sent to you - and if JK wants to continue in the clun we'll sort everything out again properly for next month to plug the gaps.

I'm happy to send another book to Electric so that no-one misses out. How about if we give JK till Friday and if we haven't heard from her, I'll send one on to Electric?

Piebald, will do!

dinkystinky · 27/09/2011 13:30

That sounds brilliant Tilly if you dont mind. Yes, lets see if JK pops on by Friday. Will pm her to check she's ok - hope she hasnt had to go back to hospital.

Sad my poor book is the first casualty of the book clun Sad

dinkystinky · 27/09/2011 21:02

Nah merely laid up with an ailing Jk wherever she is - both will hopefully have a full recovery and rejoin the clun with new vim and vigour

AfternoonsandCoffeespoons · 29/09/2011 23:01

Swampster I need your address - have PMed you!

dinkystinky · 30/09/2011 12:34

Right, no sign of JK so far so Tilly - if its still ok, can you sort a book to send to Electricsoftparade? ESP - can you pm Tilly your address please.

has everyone else passed their books on by now? If there's a delay holler on here or PM the person you're sending to. (Not got the book from you yet Piebald)

piebald · 30/09/2011 13:24

I have posted it Dinky--just trying to remember what day, and i did send it 2nd class but sure it will arrive soon

swampster · 30/09/2011 13:36

Nooooooo! I post to Electricsoftparade, JK was posting to me but Afternoons will send me one tis month!

swampster · 30/09/2011 13:37

Or am I missing something? Confused

dinkystinky · 30/09/2011 14:27

Swampy - JK has one of the books in the clun swap at the moment (Afternoons one). Because she's gone missing in action and never posted a book to you for the first swap, you dont have one to pass on to Electricsoftparade AND we are a book down on the swap.

So to fill the JK shaped hole (temporarily I hope) Afternoons will post to you. You dont have anything to post on to Electricsoftparade this time round (as you should be sending the book JK never sent you) so Tilly is sending one to Electricsoftparade to ensure no hole in our clun chain.

Normal service (where you post to electric the book you get from afternoons) and if JK turns up she posts to you and Afternoons to JK will hopefully be resumed next month.

Cheers Piebald.

I collected my book from the sorting office this morning - it's Calico's offering to the clun. I will try and start it later.

dinkystinky · 01/10/2011 19:25

Arrived today Piebald thanks - book is definitely not one I'd normally pick so am looking forward to venturing outside my comfort zone....

tillyfernackerpants · 03/10/2011 13:29

Sorry for absence! Am happy to fill gap if Electric can pm me her address. Will post Hariboe's today

dinkystinky · 04/10/2011 10:11

Thanks Tilly. Has everyone (other than ESP) received their second book of the clun now?

musttidyupmusttidyup · 04/10/2011 13:27

Yep. Am liking it Clingingtosanity especially the Rooster Grin

Calico1 · 04/10/2011 14:55

Clingingtosanity - no book yet....I think you mentioned that you posted last week? Let me know. Thanks in anticipation!

Haribojoe · 04/10/2011 21:39

Not yet, but Tilly was posting it yesterday so am thinking it will arrive later in the week

AfternoonsandCoffeespoons · 04/10/2011 23:47

Got mine, thanks and posted swampsters at the weekend so she should have it by now too.

swampster · 05/10/2011 10:07

It arrived yesterday, thank you. Now could someone please send me some quiet reading time?

swampster · 05/10/2011 10:07

dinkystinky · 05/10/2011 10:20

I can pop some chloroform in the post for the mini swampsters if you like Swampy? Grin

I find the commute to and from work ideal reading time.

piebald · 05/10/2011 11:04

I havent got a book yet :(

dinkystinky · 05/10/2011 11:11

Piebald - please PM Electricsoftparade - she hasnt been on the thread for ages. She should be getting one from Tilly to plug the hole - if she hasnt replied to Tilly with her address and doesnt reply to you we'll get Tilly to send the book to you instead - though does mean we have 2 AWOLs in the gang..
