ooh thank you, i can post Joys tonight before i go away.

I wish you weren't so darned quick sometimes, Goaty, lol. I needed to change it. Never mind.

cant you still do it she has not posted it yet

Nah, it's OK, Kim.
I'll do a direct swap with Lauren this month and then go down my list next month.

you can still change it, i am taking the atc and stamped envelope with me...I got sidetracked and didn't send it.

change away honey x

Nope. That won't work. Lauren's on twice now.

Forget it....I'll come off again. I think.

Brain fuddled..........so hang fire you lot.

RIGHT...............ALL STOP!!!!!!

Be back soon.

OK. As you were!

oopsie, just sent you a 2nd pm...

Yeah, and I'm sorry 'bout that, Goaty.

3 of you are sending to the same person you did in June. I do the list in a certain way and when anybody else joins it screws it up a bit, so I'm sorry 'bout that. It's either carry on or I completely re-jig again and that would mean repeats anyway.

If nobody joins or leaves for the next 13 months...we'll be OK,

I don't mind who sends to me or to whom I should send - just love doing it - and thanks for doing the list for us Lorraine. Where WOULD we all be without you, eh?

i dont mind who i send to or recieve from either , it must be a nightmare to do each month . is there another system we can use .
can you not throw this one over to someone else to do each month give you a bit less to do , you still have plenty of other stuff to do dont you .
like delegate !!!

Thank goodness I'm not in this.

Oh it's a great swap though Billie. Nice to have something to look forward to with
the swaps on this group.
Kim's right Lorraine - let someone else take the list.

The list isn't a problem, girls. Thanks. I'll keep hold for now. Only got addled this month 'cause I'm so darned tired and couldn't think straight, lol.

posted to you today Nona (i need to keep the decks clear at the moment)

Oh Billie you should see some of the glorious stuff we get - it's only one a month you know, so you really should join in ... it's lovely to have one to look forward to every month, isn't it girls?

So true Patty - and you can do what you like for these swaps - and it's a good
chance to use up bits you have in your scrap box.
Nona's swaps are not as free as they have themes etc and you need to
follow the rules. Keeps my fingers and brain going.

I am writing out a card to pop in with yours steph, and a card for Lauren's birthday...how could i forget my good friend. x

Look forward to that. She did ask if there was a card from you but I
said you had been away.

Hope things are better {{{{{{{HUGS}}}}}}}

Lovely ATC from Patty today thank you, was the only nice bit of post I had today!

Thank you Nona for my lovely Fairy Bear for August, it is delightful. And thank you, too, for my lovely, lovely little sheepie punch - it is divine and I love it to bits already. Such a kind thought and grreatly appreciated.

Glad you liked it Patty, I hope the ATC box didn't get broke in the post.

Thank you Maria for your lovely time ATC which I received yesterday.

mum says that the atc box didnt get broken, is truly super and mums sorry she didnt mention it

Dawn - your ATC is in the post this morning.

Ooh thank you Steph I can't wait , something to look forward to.

goaty did you get yours from me this weekend, i posted it the same day as billies bits and laurens pressie , they have got their stuff

Kim, i only got back saturday and left Sunday morning at 6am to go to one brother's house in Wilts, a kind of half way stopover (116 miles to there) Then at 6am thius morning i drove to Wales....making a total mileage of 281...clever brave goaty....

But YES...i saw the envelope, opened it and adored the Scarlet ribbons atc, and even rang teabag and she had a good look when she popped round on the Saturday night...it is so simple and very effective....and of course...the colour is perfecto. Thanks x

Thanks Suzy - mine arrived yesterday with Lauren's pressie.
I have those papers - might have been tempted to use them for Nona's
monthly ATCs if I could have got 4 out of them. I like the way you made
bits of them shiny - what did you use for that ?
