I like the idea of it, we did something along these lines at Christmas,we all sent a christmas card to someone, and they sent one to someone else, but with email addresses rather than home addresses.

People might not be willing to give their home addresses out but it may work by email.

I think it's a wicked idea. It gives people a chance to exercise the surreal part of their brain! I mean you could send anything!!!! A Rolo on a string ...... half a dozen Paperclips bent into amusing shapes ...... an orange that's been painted green ....... the walnut from a Walnut Whip ..... a brick ........ an entire collection of the Shipping Forecast 1978-1985 on tape ...... Oooooh I could go on all night!

sounds fun

Anyone who wants in, please email me.

Alex - you have too much spare time on your hands LMAO!

Now look who has too much time on their hands plus a sense of humour to match Spikes

A little harsh, methinks!

Clearly funnier than any of Spike's intended (although not the unintended ones) jokes, and 30 secs of PC time...

I actually bought that book at least in part because I like the Shipping Forecast (although also because it had good reviews, before you think I've turned into Spike )

Bring back Finisterre, I say!

LMAO!!!!!! Right, now you all know what I want for my birthday. You've got quite a while to save up, so if you all chip in .......


But anyhoo, I really think this could be fun. E-mail's on it's way Roxanne.

i've e-mailed you roxy..you'll get one from my friend katie87 too...she's just signed up, but likes the sound of it too.

Sounds like fun, emails on the way.

My e-mails on it's way!! sounds like loads of fun, can't wait to send some stuff out!! hehe!!

Muhwahaha!
It begins...

Ok, I've sent the emails.
In the emails are the addy and name of the person you're sending to.
There's a list of their hobbies.
Send as much or as little as you want as long as it's from the heart.
Any problems, email me or reply here.

Hi Roxanne, I got my e-mail and am searching for goodies as we speak. I just wondered Do we disclose who sent the goodies, or is that being kept a secret till the end or something?

is it just for the next month and then we get dif. people?
