Tis I, Dinky, in my festive guise. Just checking everyone has now posted on or at least let their postee know its on the way.

Piebald - heard anything from ESP?

drinkystinkyyuletidegubbins · 01/12/2011 17:05

Swampy - if Piebald hasnt heard from ESP (she didnt get a book from her this time round, can you send your magna opus book on to Piebald please (Piebald, PM Swampy your address) if not posted on yet? Means I dont get one this time round but will hopefully get one next time round.

If ESP has dropped out, the swap list becomes

Haribojoe

kiwijesta

Last time i heard from ESP she hadnt finished the book, i will pm her again

Haribojoe · 03/12/2011 13:15

Will post mine on Monday Smile

tillyfernackerpants · 03/12/2011 15:49

Have posted mine today!

I enjoyed my book, took a while to get into the second person narrative style, but it was a good story and well-written I thought.

Have got Swampy's book & I guessed right Grin. I have read it before but it was a while ago so will read it again to see if I have a different pov

acsec · 03/12/2011 22:45

I have my new book - it's Kiwi's. My mum has read it, she said it's a good one :) Started reading it on the train this morning.

drinkystinkyyuletidegubbins · 05/12/2011 11:46

Piebald - am I getting a book this time round or did you not get one on the last swap (meaning there is still a gap in the clun)?

Calico1 · 05/12/2011 22:36

No book here yet.....

tillyferTINSELpants · 05/12/2011 22:56

Dinky, I think we're doing well, I think this is the furthest we've managed to get with any swap Xmas Grin

drinkystinkyyuletidegubbins · 06/12/2011 10:29

Hurrah Tilly! Xmas Grin

Calico - please pm Clinging - its a busy time of year and the queue for the post office is probably a big one, she's probably still in it.

Piebald - can you let me know?

Haribojoe · 07/12/2011 12:08

Got my book yesterday and am already hooked Xmas Grin, posted book on to Rufus today, sorry it's late again but promise in the New Year that maternity leave will make me super organised and always on time!

piebald · 07/12/2011 13:01

Sorry Dinky-no sign of esp, last message i had she was just finishing it but i see tha t was early November. Would you like me to send you a book?
Should i send swampy my adress

drinkystinkyyuletidegubbins · 07/12/2011 16:54

Yup Piebald - please send Swampy your address. Swampster - you're now posting to Piebald as ESP has disappeared.

New Swap List is now:

swampster
piebald
dinkystinky
tillyfernackerpants
Haribojoe
RufusSewell
kiwijesta
clingingtosanity
calico1
musttidyupmusttidyup
acsec
afternoonsandcoffeespoons

Piebald - dont worry about sending me a book - sorry you didnt get one this time round. I anticipate lots of books being given to me to read in a couple of weeks time - and I've just bought a couple of new ones too so not missing the clun book too much this week. Will however send a new one onto Tilly when we send on in the new year to plug the gap.

swampster · 07/12/2011 21:59

Send me your address, Piebald, and I will admit defeat with November's book now December's has arrived! I'm not cut out for this reading malarkey!

drinkystinkyyuletidegubbins · 08/12/2011 16:44

Its ok Swampy - you have till 25 January to get through the book sent to you this time. Xmas Wink

musttidyupmusttidyup · 10/12/2011 21:35

Aww Swampy sorry. Thought its fabulousness would make up for its excessive length. Xmas Wink

Calico1 · 12/12/2011 10:15

I pm'd clingingtosanity a few days ago but no response as yet - if nothing arrives by Jan will assume she has dropped off the thread.

acsec · 12/12/2011 22:24

I'm a little worried about where my actual book has got to, I hope it's not a casualty of theclun :(

AfternoonsandCoffeespoons · 13/12/2011 09:00

Shall we have a roll call acsec? I can't remember whos book I've got but will go check in a bit. I know mine was the first casualty. :-(

AfternoonsandCoffeespoons · 13/12/2011 09:01

oops Sad

drinkystinkyyuletidegubbins · 13/12/2011 09:05

Right - lets see who is in the clun still. All those who havent got your books this time round please name the person sending to you. I'll start - I havent got a book from Piebald (but I know its because ESP was v slow reader and didnt send the book on to Piebald last time round - ESP isnt responding to PMs so unless she pops up soon will be out of the clun)

All those who have got books please post to say the name of the person's book you've currently got.

Kiwi is in NZ till end of Jan - I think she'd arranged for her book to be sent directly to clinging who was meant to be sending on to you Calico.

If we end up with lots of drop outs/no shows by end of Dec I'll rejig the list again and we'll see
