The only round robin type swaps currently going on are the chilli & tomato one which is accounted for today & Jeannines 'from Canada' parcel which is currently delayed in transit neither of which you appear to be involved in.
Could it be one of the previous swaps which went missing? or could it be a swap on another forum?
If you check the postmark it should at least have a postcode you can google which would tell you the area it came from if not a town name, once you know roughly where it came from you may be able to work out who may of sent it.

Could it be Asbeans pass the parcel which went from you to Levi in Burton upon Trent, Levi received the parcel but then they went missing & no more has been heard from them since.
Somewhere around this part of the thread.

If it is that parcel then it should be your handwriting on the previous address label.

No other addresses on it apart from this karen's, but it has my return address on it which is printed? I can't remember if Asbeans  parcel had printed return address labels? But it does sound as if it is the same parcel.

Levi's forename is Karen & they are in Burton Upon Trent so there is a good chance the parcel came from them, they haven't logged on for months but their email address is in their profile if you want to query it with them assuming the email address is still valid.

Found the link but couldn't add it to my post so I messaged it and bumped it up. it appears there where two other parcels went missing about the same time XX Jeannine

Just caught up with this thread!  Thanks for the pm, Baccyman!

Looking at the labels (which miraculously I haven't deleted!) Twoflower sent it to Levi, who should have sent it to Anemone. Then should have gone Actiongran, Suzanne, Tonybloke, Jokey then back to me.

It probably went back to Twoflower because that was the "from" label.

Well well well.  Are there any labels in the package, Twoflower?  If not, I can send you some so it can continue on its way and finish the round.
