Olly Posted December 7, 2016 Share Posted December 7, 2016 I chose a fairly straightforward project so I could be sure of getting it done in time. Do I hear the sound of hollow laughter? First I lost a couple of vital components, eventually I tracked them down in completely the wrong place; then I started making it; and then I had to undo it, due to my total failure to follow instructions. Only had to undo it, oh, four times so far I think? One day I'll learn to read right to the END of the instructions. And then read them again. Tis done. A couple of other little things to do and ...

Olly Posted December 9, 2016 Share Posted December 9, 2016 Phew! posted Only because I'm out all day tomorrow and won't have a chance to go to the Post Office - believe me, I'd have given myself the extra 24 hours if I could! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luvachicken Posted December 9, 2016 Author Share Posted December 9, 2016 I've only just realised that the 11th is a Sunday - silly me Looks like that gives everyone an extra day or one less if you all send them tomorrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Olly Posted December 10, 2016 Share Posted December 10, 2016 *takes off 'ridiculous nincompoop who can't read instructions' hat* right, going into sensible mode for a moment *puts on Mod hat* Please remember to post on here when you have SENT your swap And please post when you have RECEIVED it! Them's the rules, and that means luvachicken can work out if there are any problems - there won't be, of course, as if anyone had a problem they'd have let her know by now. Ooh that Mod hat's getting tight ... think I've put on weight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ursula123 Posted December 10, 2016 Share Posted December 10, 2016 Will be posting on Monday (sorry). Went to the post office this morning and I was 18th in the queue with only one person behind the counter stood for 10 mins and she was still serving the same person as when I went in. I received my parcel today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luvachicken Posted December 10, 2016 Author Share Posted December 10, 2016 No need to apologise Ursula 123, I goofed up the date with it being on a Sunday anyway Hopefully the queue will be better for you on Monday. I know you have been poorly recently so spending time queuing for ages will not be helping you. I hope you are feeling better now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ursula123 Posted December 10, 2016 Share Posted December 10, 2016 Thanks luvachicken. Hopefully the queue will be better, going to go early. They shut our main post office in the town recently, so now all the little surrounding village ones are busy. I still get very tired but it is much better than it was, At least I can make it past lunch time now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jennifer Jane Posted December 11, 2016 Share Posted December 11, 2016 Mine went yesterday courtesy of DH, who had to phone me while I was sitting at the hairdresser with my colour on, just to ask what it contained!
