[trippytroll]

ok im in
have no idea how these swap thingies work as i always seem to miss out on them i always see the post after the deadline!!
im in uk and will post to uk when the sign up is closed is that when you send out the questionairres? and is that to our message box you send them?
oh and sorry if ive missed something but what is it we are actually swapping?
is it anything like absolutely anything?

Hi trippydoll, after the sign up is closed tomorrow I'll private message you a questionnaire to fill in askign yuo aboutyour address, where you want to send and what kind of things you like. When everyone has sent this back to me by PM I will decide who is going to send a gift to who.
Then, I will forward you (again via PM) the completed questionnaire of the person that you will be sending a present to. You can then get them any gift you like (budget £10) and use their answers to help you pick things they might like. It's become 'traditional' , where possible,to try to put something in the gift that you've made yourself. Hope that's ok for you.

We're just waiting on 3 more responses
I think I'll do the swap in pairs as supposed to a circle swap to make it more straight forward for everyone!

[°«Belle»°]

EDIT: Oh no, I lie. I did get one but for some reason it didn't show as '1 new message'
will fill it out and send back later todaaaay! Got to do the school run now..

So did I, its beacuse they were sent to more than one person at a time and when you click reply it sends it to everyone!!

[silentstorm]

Hi guys, sorry I've been offline for 2 days as I've been busy with work. I'm sorry about people getting multiples of replies. I always assume people copy and paste repies onto a new email so it didn't occur to me that replies would go all ways.

Sorry for the confusion this far but the good news is that all relies are in - partners will be put on the first post in about 5mins and then I'll send you your partner's replies and send monique_marion_may a copy of my little spreadsheet!

[silentstorm]

I'm all shopped up! I got a couple of things yesterday and the rest today. I wasn't able to find allthe types of things I wanted to but I still think I've done ok and I'll be posting out on Tuesday!


ps sorry guys I forgot to email all the details to Monique_Marion_May but I'll do it now x

[CherryLex]

Can I just confirm our deadline date please? I've only been able to get one thing so far & think I'll probably be able to mail out next weekend... will that be allright?

Same here, I've only just realised that you put the 11th for last send out date and I can only get to the post office on a Saturday so if it is OK I will be sending on Sat 12th.

Its fine with me hun Iv just got one more little thing to pick up tomorrow and Il be sending thur/fri.

[silentstorm]

Hi everyone, just post out when you can. The early date was because Iexpected there'd be some international swaps but as it happens everyone's posting within their own country. Please just put up a post when you have sent/received your package so we can keep an eye on it! x
