Hi Fee fairy - I have tried to pm you - but the message is sitting in my outbox. Don't know if you have received my message?

I've sent out half the details, but its a late night, and i've had a tiring weekend, so i'm going to send the rest out after work tomorrow night.

You will not be receiving from the person you are sending to - it makes it easier to do it in a chain fashion. Finlay's been great at choosing people, i kept waving a biscuit under his nose and seeing which person he stepped on next...

Everyone's got someone to send to, and someone to receive from. I decided not to try to match people geographically because we only had 2 people from outside the UK join...an that would be a bit obvious and not very secret!

And the person sending to me needn't be worried, i'd have forgotten by then. I'll keep the list of who's sending to who until the beginning of December and then get rid of it.

Some messages have *address to follow* on the bottom. I was copying and pasting from the PMs answering the questionnaires, and some people sent their address separately. If i haven't sent you an address to send to by Wednesday, please let me know!

I think that's it for now...going to bed to have a well-deserved night's sleep!

Right

Everyone should have received a PM from me, and apart from two or three people, should have all the details of their partner.

Can the following people send me details please:

Super.niki
Cassiepod
Shirley (I'll send you the questionnaire by PM now).

Then that should be everyone taken care of, and its on with the making and sending!!

If there's anyone who's been missed out, let me know.

I'm really feeling christmassy now! Better get my thinking cap on...
When I was young people called me a hippy. Now I'm a bit older I'm just called environmentally aware..... that's progress!
