Yes, it was me! I hope you enjoy your book!! Sorry I couldn't get you more. I had all sorts of neat ideas, but none of them materialized in time to be shipped to Australia :cry:

It's not the 30th for me yet, so I will open tomorrow :giggle:

I am up a little earlier today to check out my pacakages...although I don't have time to post pics etc because it is our Halloween Party at work today and I need to get there so I can get everything ready. It is my party after all...the kids are all so hyped!

Anyway I got four books! I believe they are all wishlist books! :bananadance:

A huge thank you to Sunlightbub who spooked me ;) :hug:

Will post which books later....have a long day....

Enjoy opening all your pacakges!

And it was stuffed to the brim with sweets! (I hope I get trick or treaters as otherwise I'll get very fat if I eat it all myself!!!) :werewolf:

Plus some lovely Hallowe'en trim which will be useful for my party tomorrow night. :vampire:

Nikel, I was your partner, I mooched this book for you from wss

So I guess the other box hasn't arrived yet. I hope it isn't lost :erm: I sent it almost 2 weeks ago and usually these boxes from Holland to Germany arrive pretty fast. I hope it comes soon, there is lots of stuff in there for you!

Happy Halloween!

I opened my envelopes this morning!!!!

My partner was the lovely Bigcurlyloz! Thanks !!! :hug:

She got me four wishlist books:
Two Nancy Drew (which I collect) Never say die and The invisible intruder.

She also sent me Guess how much I love you which I read in Dutch with my kids (from the library) but which I wanted to read with them in English too. We often say Love you to the moon and back (from the book) to each other (yes, we say it in English)

I also got For women only by Shaunti Feldham which was the book longest on my wishlist :D Can't wait to read it!

Plus there were lots of Halloween goodies ( a ghost, plastic spiders) and chocolate :nod:

Thanks again!

Sorry Cindy, there wasn't any post it that the book you be from you. I saw it after I made the journal entry at bookcrossing.

Will let you know as soon the parcel arrived, the last two weeks our post in our area was a bit slow, hopefully it isn't lost.

I really really hope it isn't lost! There are such good books in it!
(sorry but it's true)

I just had a look at the Dutch site and it says parcels to Germany should arrive between 2-6 days :shrug:
Let's hope it's just German post being annoyingly slow.

I know... I'm kind of stressy... but that's just me.

This morning I woke up early to open my Spooky Halloween package. What a treat!! I received a copy of a wishlist book that I have been wanting to read for some time.

Posted Image
The title is Gone Bamboo by Anthony Bourdain. He is the host of the travel show "No Reservations".

I also received all kinds of cat notes, stickers, stationary, datebook and even a dvd of playful kittens.

Thank you so much RockDg9. This was really a great way to start my day.

So sorry. I tried to find a bigger picture of the book, but didn't have any luck.
