Title: Kel's "Goodbye Swaps, Cheerio London" Swap!
Description: LAST CALL FOR SIGN UPS!!!!!
EllyMae58 - March 7, 2008 05:41 PM (GMT)
This is my swan song swap, at least until after my visit to London (and Paris)! :giggle: Help me celebrate my upcoming travels by swapping some books about traveling, discovering, taking a trip, vacation, exploring new places! The name of a country, continent, city, state, etc in the title is okay, too! Please, no travel guides, just looking for fun readable books. :)
Who's got the wanderlust?
1. Elly the Explorer
2. Sightseeing Sunlightbub
3. Gallivanting Giz-angel
4. Ramblin' Redhot-brat
5. Spelunking Spiderchic
6. Cheesy the Jaunting Giraffe
7. Gategypsy the Globetrotter
8. Rootmartin the Roaming Reader
9. Azuki the Adventurous
10. Cruisin' Camis
11. Leavin' on a Jet Plane Lizabeth86
12. NeedsMoreDramamine :rofl:
13.
14.
15.
ETA: I was also thinking to make it fun and to go in with the whole travel thing, maybe when you send your book, you could include a postcard of the area you live? What do you think?
Sunlightbub - March 7, 2008 05:43 PM (GMT)
Me please :)
When does it start? Need to find/ read book first!

Please add me to the list. I have a great book for this and postcards (from 3 states even) at the ready. :D
SimplyCee - March 7, 2008 09:13 PM (GMT)
Hmmm. I'm going to check when I get home and see if I have any books about traveling or seeing new places. :D

Marlene - March 8, 2008 03:02 PM (GMT)
Wow you have more people sign up if you compare it to my TC swap which I had scheduled 3 months ago.
Not that I oh what is the Engish word. :wacko:
Ik gun het je. Ik misgun het je niet.
have to visit a dictionary site...
................................................
No answer. :erm:
Oke try with other words
Not that I not want you to have loads of people playing in your final swappy.
I just want some more in mine to. :whip:
Maybe I will join Kel. :wink:
Have to go to the first post to see what kind of books this is about.
redhot-brat - March 8, 2008 11:33 PM (GMT)
Is jealous the word you are looking for perhaps Marlene? :shrug:
Loving the new nicknames Kel... very cute!
cheesygiraffe - March 9, 2008 12:36 AM (GMT)

NOOO :bash:
To the contrary.
It means the opposite. I want kel to have loads of people playing and we have a word for it but I cannot find the English word for it.
Have to ask my mom (she is English) :rolleyes:
EllyMae58 - March 10, 2008 02:01 PM (GMT)
cheesygiraffe - March 10, 2008 02:04 PM (GMT)
I already have my book picked out and I'm going to read it after I finish the book I am reading now. :D

GateGypsy - March 10, 2008 06:09 PM (GMT)
Kel, could you do me a favour? When you do the randomizing for the order, if my name comes up somewhere between fourth from the top and third from the bottom, could you bump me down toward the end? I'm going to be flying/travelling all day on the 14th and wouldn't be able to make it in in the case my turn came up, and I wouldn't want to hold your swap up. If I'm at the end, it'd be safer! :lol:
EllyMae58 - March 10, 2008 11:37 PM (GMT)
How come 19 said they'd play (per my poll) but only 10 have signed up? :whip: :angry2:
Lizabeth86 - March 10, 2008 11:55 PM (GMT)
I am joining just cause I want a cool name :giggle:
I also went looking to see if I had anything that would fit this theme....and I do. :bananadance:

Sorry Kel. I initally said I would play but that was either before the new rules came out. Rules. Feh... too much like work, not at all like fun.
