I apologize profusely for the lateness. :guilty:
I completely underestimated how difficult it would be to find magnets in the off season. Turns out I could not find even one magnet in my home town anywhere...but I *finally* managed to get some magnets I was happy with and sent them all out yesterday (Wednesday). So far I have not received anything yet, but in general, mail delivery here tends to be slow.
I feel great that I managed to get it done though :cool1:

I got a package last night from pepsicube. The magnet was of Sudbury Hall/the Museum of Childhood. It's so neat because I got not only the awesome magnet but also some literature that gave a lot of really detailed information about the Museum of Childhood. Very cool! Thanks so much! :goodvibes
I hope my magnets arrive to their recipients soon. :guilty:

We were away late last week, so I didn't get a chance to get online - then when I did manage on the weekend, the Disboards were down :confused: So here we are...
When we arrived home on Saturday I discovered a package had arrived with two lovely magnets from Rochester, along with a very cute little UK bear charm. Thank you very much Joa!
Yesterday (Monday Mar 23rd) I received two very nice magnets from Scotland, and a lovely postcard along with some Scottish *treats*. I'm trying to share the treats, so everyone here can have a taste of Scotland - they are very yummy. I do want to add that the term 'crabbit' is going to be put into use around here, when appropriate ;)... we are already familiar with crabby. :laughing: Thank you spookysarah!
My fridge is really looking great!:cool1:

Glad you enjoyed the package. I'm not sure I remember what treats I put in (tablet maybe?) but I hope you enjoy them. LOl that you like the word crabbit, there are loads of fab Scottish words.

I'm really pleased the Niagara Falls magnets arrived and that you like them...seems like they traveled quickly :woohoo:
As nice as it is to live near Niagara Falls - I grew up in this area and *never* tire of seeing them - I sincerely doubt you would want to swap houses, or at least not until our renovations are signficantly closer to completion ... some day we'll get there.
Spookysarah, you sent a macaroon and a tablet. Thank you again.

Today I received yet another package full of surprises. This one is from Ormskirk. A lovely postcard magnet and a decorative flower, a couple of handy dandy reminder magnets and some cute clips with hearts...plus a couple of postcards with recipes - one for gingerbread and one for a hotpot (looks a bit like a type of stew, at least it looks that way from reading it through).
Thank you so much for putting such a nice package together Justjo. :)
I love all of it...but the cook in me is wondering about a couple of ingredients :scratchin
black treacle - is this the same as molasses?
golden syrup - is something thick like Lyle's golden corn syrup required, or can I use regular corn syrup?

Mine arrived today and have I been spoiled, firstly thanks Jo your package seemed to go on forever with all the fab goodies - like the sound of the recipes must give them a try. The bottle top magnets are really cool, love the postcard one and the flower which is really pretty - thank you so much.
Secondly thanks to Janet over the moon with my Disney and Sea World magnets they are fab, have a few Disney ones but not this one and haven't got a Sea World one these will look fab on my fridge/freezer.
Thanks again girls.

Still waiting to hear from one person here that they've received their magnets which were mailed to them a month ago and for the ones they sent to arrive in the UK.:confused3
Taking way too long......:sad2:

04-18-2009, 07:45 PM
Well, it's now been over a month and still no sign of these magnets arriving in the UK. Also no word from this end that they have received theirs from the UK which were sent 5 weeks ago...
tinkerella in Scotland is still waiting to receive hers from Canada:sad1:
kellyla has not posted as having received hers which were mailed from the UK 5 weeks ago.:confused3

Mine has arrived!Thank you so much Julia!She sent me:
A Titanic movie board magnet
A London Re dBus magnet
A Titanic magnet showing the cities it was ailing from and to
A Knights of the Round Table magnet
A magnet that says"Take an old bag shopping":rotfl:
Along with a very nice note,everything came in a pink felt bag.I want to know if she made this and if she did I would like to have a pattern or some instructions to make it.
Thank you again.I was so worth the wait.
Now to figure out why mine is taking so long to get there:confused::confused3:sad1:

Ok, well I've just had word from Scotland via tinkerella's DD and she has received her magnnets from Kellyla.
Seems that tinkerella has been in hospital with pneumonia for a couple of weeks and has just been released.
So that now completes the magnet exchange...:goodvibes
