Kev, sorry, no...  I never got a PM from you with your name and address to add to the list, and parcels 3 and 4 have already left.

I think there might still be time to join in parcel number 5. norfolklass is organising the next one.  Details in this thread...

The parcel will be on it's way to WATFORD on Monday.

Okay, to try to clear up any confusion... as it was so popular again I sent two parcels off at the same time: parcel 3 and parcel 4.  (I thought if I kept it to one list of 24 people it would take too long to go around everyone.)

So, in ALPHABETICAL order the people down for each parcel are as below.  However to keep you guessing as to when you're going to get to open it (a bit like a real pass the parcel ;)) this is not the order it is going to be sent round ;D

Parcel 3:

daisymay
flowerlady
glow777
hazelize
Jeannine
Marymary
MrsKP
princescruffster
purple sprouting
Rhubarb Thrasher
Sparkly
tulippa

and

Parcel 4:

barkingdog
blisters
cambourne7
coznbob
flossie
Jitterbug
knbsallotment
mikey
Rosyred
sally_cinnamon
suzanne
sweet-pea

Hope that helps people keep track of which parcel they should be looking out for.

Just a word of warning re the postage, I sent a perfectly normal size envelope to a swappee just recently and she was charged extra postage.  She asked me if I had been "done" likewise.  At the time I hadn't received my envelope, but tonight through the door was a regular envelope that had been underpaid by 5p !  There is a neat little sticker on it saying Fee to Pay £1.05 !!!!!!  5p for the unpaid postage, ONE POUND for the handling fee !!!!!!!!!!

As the envelope is now on my mat, they can sing for their £1.05, but just a warning for others.

..............I'm so excited, and I just can't hide it .........
