Make sure to pop by the UK, and bring tons of your bags with you please
I have a spare room and am willing to hitch anybody up for a while in exchange for some stitching tips and some kicking time

I got one from Jeremy O'Wheel today!!!
It was really rad and felt really in the spirit of a day in the life of Jeremy O'Wheel. I thought the picture was an absract painting at first and was really disinterested. Then he explained in the postcard that it was a photo of Tasmania, and I looked closely and it was this really crazy tangle of tree roots and rocks. Thanks Jeremy!
I think I've probably recieved all of my postcards now
Oh I got a postcard from Jamo - sweet pictures of castles in Wales. Also a while ago which I kind of mentioned in my blog - one from Ken Somolinos which was very very cool
I'm sure Emily will send out some PMs in a few days for the next round I'm planning on sending an extra or two as well I think
You've only been in it for a month, don't worry Henry, you'll get some postcards.
I'll send out some PM's within the next few days.

yeah when this started I sent out like 4 cards before I got any back, but now I've got a pretty good number and I usually get some every month. I must say I enjoy writing and sending cards just as much as I enjoy getting them and I'd be happy to keep sending cards even if I didn't get any. That said I'm also always stoked when I do recieve cards - probably because I live in Australia and they usually take such a long time to arrive that when they do I've given up on them - so I'm more stoked
Seriously big props to Emily for organising this - it's definitly one of my favourite things I look forward to!
I havent sent one to you Henry but you were supposed to be in my next batch. I sent out 6 this time, i was going to go to the shop and get another bunch in a week or so and send them to a bunch of different people, you included. So dont give up hope.

I'm sure that you are assigned to people, and they simply haven't put it up here yet. Moxie has the list, you'd be better off asking her, but she might not tell you because it would ruin the surprise.
of course you should! But sometimes people have problems etc. Or the cards could get lost in the mail. maybe you didn't write your address out exactly as it should be on the card. So often I have to add in the country to the persons address because they miss it off...
I'm just saying that things will defintily improve if you stick with it - rather than throwing a hissy fit like Lon did.
Hahahahaha. I'm fairly certain that Emily worked it out so that two people should be sending you a postcard. Heck, I still haven't sent out this month's shipment yet.
lol. Having put much thought into his options, Henry decides that "hissy fit" is the best option thus achieving the title of "tool"
I'm just kidding Henry - well kind of, I just think it's silly that you're not staying in. Of course it sucks that you haven't got your postcards but it's silly to be so dramatic about it. You're two people were probably Anssi and Tom - who are both probably busy with all the crazy stuff happening in Europe right now. Anyway it's your choice, and of course I realise that you're only young and entitled to act your age but I'm going to stick my tongue out at you anyway

So if you just start out you arent assigned to anyone? Lame.

You think its fine that i dont recieve postcards? i thought this was a mutual thing here.
Count me out for next time emily
My goodness, I go to sleep for a few hours and all of this happens. Of course it's not okay that you didn't receive postcards. Of course I assigned you to people, I never said that I didn't. I can't say why you didn't receive postcards. Other people have had problems with postcards taking a long time to arrive from other countries, which is where the people who you were assigned to live. But I have already figured out who's sending to you this month so you'll get at least two postcards. And others have already told you that they're going to send to you. There's no need to be hasty, lets just have fun. This is fun, remember?
