Confirming still in! Btw must we have wine when we meet on last Monday of each month?

swampster · 18/07/2011 18:45

Wine is good. Wine Do we want to hang around here discussing books or do we want to move to FB or google+?

AfternoonsandCoffeespoons · 18/07/2011 19:17

Yay I got in! :-D

AfternoonsandCoffeespoons · 18/07/2011 19:20

So I don't need to post a book till August? Have I got that right? Then I post to jklikesrowing, who i will have pmed for her address by then? [thicko emoticon]

ElectricSoftParade · 18/07/2011 19:25

Mumoverseas are you still in? PM me your address please :)

gailforce1 · 18/07/2011 19:37

musttidyup - agree with Wine (must get my priorities right)!

afternoons - I may be wrong but I think you pm jkrowling with your address?

Can't wait for my first book (even if it is scifi under a different cover)!

acsec · 18/07/2011 20:31

No I need afternoons address, she needs JK's

musttidyupmusttidyup · 18/07/2011 20:52

How do I find calico? Can't find a post from her on this thread.... Or am I being thick?

swampster · 18/07/2011 20:55

She might not realise she's in - I commandeered her from my postnatal thread.

gailforce1 · 18/07/2011 21:02

I dont think that Markstretch is on this thread either....... but I've already proved to be thick!

Calico1 · 18/07/2011 21:15

Ok, ok, I am here Grin

dinkystinky · 18/07/2011 21:31

Tis ok Calico - we're not sending books around till late August. Everyone - find out the address of the person below you on the list before bookswap time. If they're not on the thread and havent responded by 30 July will edit the list and put reserve list people in. Dont worry.

acsec · 18/07/2011 22:10

I am definately in! I've chosen my book to send :)

rufussewell · 18/07/2011 23:12

Oh I have missed so much. And been away for a long time. Hello hello Coco here! As was. Third time lucky re book swapping. Thanks Swampie.

jklikesrowing · 18/07/2011 23:12

sorry swampster, what do i need to do?

dinkystinky · 19/07/2011 08:45

Wotcha Coco in disguise - hope all v good with you. Like the new name too.

JK - I'm afraid that while you were awawy the bossy Swampy one appointed me fat controller so have tried to instil discipline in the ranks with v little success. Will happily relinquish fat controller of the clun role to you (particularly as have never done one of these t'internet book swap thingies before) if you'd like.

Haribojoe · 19/07/2011 10:44

rufussewell are you Coco? was getting a bit worried that I had no one to post books to Smile

piebald · 19/07/2011 21:14

I would like to join although i did try to join another group but it never seemed to get off the ground, so am i allowed to?

rufussewell · 19/07/2011 22:15

Hi Haribojoe, yes, that's me. Looking forward to reading your book choice!

Hello Dinky, nice to see you're here, and even possibly running the show.

Swampie, was the book club book you liked last time be a Michel Faber one??

rufussewell · 19/07/2011 22:17

Oooh, and Tilly I know. Hello!

jklikesrowing · 19/07/2011 22:21

i am a bit in love with you dinky i thought the idea up but am rubbish at organising!!!

OP posts:
jklikesrowing · 19/07/2011 22:21

no dinky you go for it, you are doing a fab job xx

dinkystinky · 20/07/2011 08:49

Blush JK - I spend my days trying to instil order into chaos at home and work (and generally failing) so nice to be able to put my organisational skills to good use here (and hopefully not fail)

piebald - will put you on the reserve list with tjackson - I'm fairly sure we'll have a couple of drop outs before the end of July confirmation date so you guys will be slotted into the gaps in the chain. Remember to check back in by the end of July.

clingingtosanity · 20/07/2011 09:01

Just to confirm, I'm still in :)

Can't decide on a book though, but I'm sure I will before 15th August!

kiwijesta will PM you my address shortly, and will await a PM from Calico1 :o

tillyfernackerpants · 20/07/2011 09:14

[waves to rufus] Hi, fingers crossed it isn't us who's the curse on book swaps!
