The mystery box
Hey, how do we put ourselves out there to get the box? I think I remember putting my name down on the boards ages ago giving my consent, but I haven't heard anything on it or ever received it. How do people get my address? Oh so confusing... LOL!

I am thinking of starting a new list of names - just so everyone has an equal opportunity to get the box (or boxes) I am putting together. And, I may have slightly different "rules" than the Mystery Box that is out there right now. I want to keep the ones I am putting together moving, so that as many people as possible get to see them. In any case, more to come Smile

BTW, it is not too late to contribute to either box.... if you would still like to contribute, please email me or Wolfie, and we will respond with our snail mail addresses for shipment of cards. I am also looking for help with Box Names (in case we exceed one box), and I am also looking for some thoughts on rules.

As I said previously, I would really like this box to move around a LOT, and I think that part of the fun of it is talking about it (what you got out of it, when you got it, when you sent it along). I will post something early next week about what I think the "terms and conditions" of participation should be.

Sorry Arnaud. Reading that back I realise that that post could be considered offensive and anti-French. Blame the large amount of French wine I just consumed with my dinner, It made me think it was funny.
Please accept my appologies if i offended you.
