finished mine and waiting to send it on.

bossybritches · 18/01/2008 14:21

Chirpy it DEFINATELY went in the post !! Hopefully tomorrow

Not had mine yet *sob& but I'm a quick reader so I'll catch up!!

What day are we saying is roughly the deadline?

TigerFeet · 18/01/2008 14:38

got mine yesterday - thanks Kenuwee

Mumwhereareyou yours is in the post

mumwhereareyou · 18/01/2008 20:01

Thanks Tigerfeet hopefully it will come tomorrow as hubby out so could do with something to read in the evening.

Am intriqued(Sp) as to where you live now is it the same county as saw from another post that your DH works for a farm and that is big business up here.

ChirpyGirl · 18/01/2008 20:13

It's here but DD1 has a throat infection and DD2 is teething like mad...so I just hope I can read it before you all finish yours!

(Very good choice BTW, loved the other novel by this author so am interested to see what this one is like!)

I would say deadline of a month so we woudl all be sending again in 3 or 4 weeks max, but if we have all finished before then seems little point hanging onto them all!

Yaaaay!! Hope you enjoy it- I found I alternated between loving it & wanting to kick them (the characters!!) up the backside!!

waves hopefully at differentYearbutthesamecack

rosmerta · 19/01/2008 13:27

I'm torn between wanting to talk about the books a little but not wanting to give too much away!

saffy202 · 19/01/2008 14:54

rosmerta, I think some of the other groups have started threads to discuss the books by being cryptic and using intitials only so not giving anythign away on title, so we can all pile in then when/as we read them!

Different Year.....awww thanks for that..bloody PO I think it's the sam countrywide. Ours can be brilliant then I have phases when 2 or three things get lost in the post.

So embnarrassing when it's work "yes I DID post it honest!"

I'll let you know Monday, don't worry it'll probably turn up then.

Chirpy/rosmerta that's a good idea cryptic critics!!

bossybritches · 24/01/2008 07:02

Sorry Differentyear it didn't arrive.

.......but as we've been a sicky bossy household I'd not have time to read it anyway!! How's everyone else getting on with their reads?

ChirpyGirl · 24/01/2008 22:16

I am getting there! DD2 is teething really badly so it is taking awhile!

OP posts:
bossybritches · 24/01/2008 22:17

Oh dear -bloody teeth - good job they don't remember them eh? Have you tried teething powders from boots? & baby ibuprofen is good for teeth.

bossybritches · 24/01/2008 22:21

Sorry if telling you summat you already know!!!

I hadn't tried the teething powders, I thought you meant he ashtons parsons things but a friend gave me some of these boots ones the other day....what the hell is in them, is it baby crack?
DD2 loves them, she stops crying instantly, gets a big grin and starts licking her lips for more.

Finished my book, have mixed feelings about it but will save them until a few more have read it!

OP posts:
saffy202 · 27/01/2008 20:10

Has everyone received theirs now? Still waiting here.

bossybritches · 27/01/2008 21:37

lol@ baby crack Chirpy that's what I call them!!! Don't know WHAT is in them but they ALL love them!! The Ashtons one are the same as the boots ones but sometimes more expensive.Hope DD2 is feeling better now?

Know what you feel re mixed feelings about the book !!

Different year -no worries I've been too busy to read it this week anyway but thanks!

ChirpyGirl · 27/01/2008 21:46

saffy, have asked gordieracer if it is sent, if it has got lost I have another book lying around I can send out, do not despair!

OP posts:
rosmerta · 28/01/2008 09:41
