Title: April Southern crossing


dolphin-au - April 1, 2008 10:38 AM (GMT)
I've already received one book, an early arrival from catsalive in March.
Journalentry Secret Tibet. A very timely book indeed, thanks catsalive!

I had not realised I wasn't supposed to open the package yet :blush: I only found that out checking out luckaye's March Southern Crossing entries. As you can see I'm not that up-to-date with this forum, I didn't even know there were threads for each month (thanks catsalive for nudging me along)
I'll try to keep you all posted on the books received. I might even try to insert a photo here and there.

If this works it is much easier than I thought it would be. Actually it didn't work the first time but hey, I got it!

I don't go into town very often anymore, so if you don't see the books you sent here as quickly as you would want it is because I've been too busy or lazy to go into town.

Cheers,
Jon

Dolphin-au I am madly reading your 'Southern Exchange' book right now, and promise that you'll have it be the end of the month.

No :ditto: from me... The book is en route to you now!

freelunch - April 3, 2008 10:28 AM (GMT)
and mine should be there soon (if it isn't already waiting) - 'twas posted last Thursday :)

O, I'll have to go and check the post office then. I'm already buried in books, but still get excited when I get new books. I'll see if I can find some time tomorrow to go into town.

I'll be sending my contribution on Monday.

I finally made it to the Post Office today and got two parcels! One form freelunch and one from imn60.
Freelunch sent me Reaper Man by Terry Pratchett

a book that has been listed on my wishlist for quite some time, and
Tiny Deaths by Robert Shearman

which look very interesting.
Imn60 sent me The Red Tent by Anita Diamant

which has also been on my wishlist for some time. I've been on two bookrings for that, and neither of these have managed to reach me.

Thanks guys!

Another one arrived yesterday. My partner picked it up from town but forgot to give it to me yesterday. This one from VeganMedusa with two books from my wishlist:
Hawksmoor by Peter Ackroyd
user posted image

and a copy of A view from the bridge/All my sons by Arthur Miller (no bcid yet)

Thanks VeganMedusa!

Another arrived this week. That must be one of the last, surely.
This one from crimson-tide:
The Turning by Tim Winton.

Thanks crimson-tide!
