I sent/received my pen exchange

[Mrs Dazzle]

Thanks to Michelle (aka Snow White) for my lovely package - PM on its way to you flower

I'm afraid my package only went out this week - sadly I've been busy for the last few weeks nursing my mother-in-law and then last week we had the funeral, so everything kind of was on hold.

But back in the real world again now, so sorry Mr X , your package should be well on its way now

Hi,
Received my pen from Mary (WDWLVR) and have already sent a Pm.
Posted mine out last week so hopefully it will soon be at it's destination.

Mick.

I received 2 pens today from Hellie. One is a Beatles one with Ringo Starr on it & the other is a company pen from her company.

Plus I got 2 postcards.

Thank you Hellie, the pens & postcards are great & much appreciated.

Thanks for the update Annie & Alan

Nice to hear from you

Has anyone else got any news to post???

Still waiting to hear from a few people if they have received their exchange........

Most have been mailed out, only a few still to do so.....

 

[Hellie]

Thank you to Disney 845 from Carmel. I received a wonderful package last night, a Disney Princess Pen, a pen with bubbles in the middle, a lovely Disney Topsy Turvey pin and a pair of glow in the dark earrings, thank you very much the package was received with great delight.

I recieved my second pen today from Australia. Thanks to Thomas the tank, I now have a Koala pen. (do I have to use it downside up??).

Also a pad and a postcard. What the heck does

out past the black stump
you little bewdy
av-a-g-ya-mug
don't come the raw prawn
hoo-roo

mean? I read the translation and I think they took some liberty with it.

Thanks,

Buz

Hellie-

Glad you liked it, I had fun sending it!!

 

[Thomas the tank]

Buz, you are very welcome & no you don't have to use the pen downside up


OUT PAST THE BLACK STUMP means..........out the back of beyond or out the back of whoop whoop

HOO ROO simply means good bye

YOU LITTLE BEWDY is another way of saying GREAT MATE or a similar saying.

AV-A-GO-YA-MUG...........means have a go ya mug. Mug meaning a person not a mug you drink from. Just means to have a go at it & not stand back & watch.

DON'T COME THE RAW PRAWN..............that is translated to Are you for real, or are you pulling my leg or similar sayings.

Glad you like it & I hope you had a good laugh.

 

[Nutsy]

Anyone else get a package recently that they haven't told us about???

 

[Nutsy]

REMEMBER.......................tomorrow is the deadline for mailing off your pens

There seem to be some stragglers who are yet to mail theirs...........Please do so a.s.a.p.

 

[Nutsy]

From the look of it & from what I've heard, the mail over in the US is awfully slow.......

Some pens were mailed 3 weeks ago, but still not received & it seems this is not the only exchange having mailing problems.

Do, hope all pens arrive soon

 

[Clarey]

Mine both went out on Wednesday

[tater bug]

Glad you like them Clarey. The orange pen was too cute to leave at the store!

Woo hoo - a parcel arrived this morning containing a shiny pen and a pencil from Tigercat in Canada. Thank you so much - it was nice to hear about you and your family too.

 

[Nutsy]

That's great news Jenny. Glad it's arrived finally

 

[Disney845]

Just wanted to post that I had received my package yesterday. In it were a pen with the name of the sender's company, and a cute orange pen with a rope to wear around your neck. Thank you very much Shamu!

 

[Nutsy]

Oh good..........that's one more that's been received.............

One less to worry about too....
