yeahhh, i wouldn't email postcards to debs either. like lore said, you can always still mail it--it just won't arrive with the others.

 

and i'm starting to get really excited about all this! now that christmas is over and all, it's something to look forward to after the new year, and i really hope that we get a nice report back :D

can't wait :bomb:

i'm gonna cry if Debs gives out the postcards to the boys before mine gets there....... :bigcry:

i sent it ages ago!!!!!!!!!

 

***Alison?? Nothing yet??? :\ ***

Sorry, Pris, but I've not had any mail at all since Christmas Eve... our postmen must be having a really long break :rolleyes:

 

Don't worry, I'll PM the second I have news!!!

I'm sorry :cry:

 

I don't think we'll get any news in less than a week or 2!

 

it's okay i don't blame you... i blame my anxiety!

that sucks! Your postcard is soo awesome! :(

 

Didnt you send it with insurance? :cry:

I bet they'll receive Pris' postcard and they will love it!

i bet they'll hang pris' postcard in the bakery it's so awesome!

pris, didn't you send yours ages ago? but you sent it to alison first? i think it's a bit odd that it hasn't gotten there yet, but if you mailed it a while ago, i think you should be OK :D

 

i guess the UK laws about mail aren't as strict as the ones in the US...:\

Pris sent me a "test card" at the same time she sent her Project card to Debs

oh wow, that's a great idea!

 

however, from my experience in sending 15 postcards from holland to various parts of the US this summer, some of the postcards arrived in THREE DAYS, and others took TWO MONTHS to arrive, even though i dumped them all in the same mailbox at the same time. unfortunately, i think it really can be a crapshoot, so just because alison hasn't receieved the test card doesn't necessarily mean that it hasn't made it to debs yet, i think :D

I think we worked out at the time that if it arrived according to her post office's estimate it would be around Dec 22nd - bearing in mind the extra volume of mail at Christmas, I'm really not concerned.

 

Have faith, Pris! :)

thanxx everyone!!! :kiss: you're all so sweet :blush:

 

i sent it on december 3rd, and i'm really not expecting it to arrive in less than a month..... :\

i'll start to get reaaally worried if is not there by mid january....... :cry:

 

i want them all to make it all the way there....... the ones for the boys and the one for Allison :kiss:

If you'll all allow me to go off-topic for just one post...

 

Hi Pris,

 

I hope you've had a happy holiday, and thanks for your PM with the Christmas greeting - I didn't reply because I didn't want you to get all excited seeing my name appear in your in-box the get disappointed when there was no news of the card

 

I'm sure you'll be hearing from me very soon! :)

You are right, i probably would've had a heart attack by your name in a pm...... but you're totally wrong about the disappointment :kiss:

 

i had a great time during the holidays, hopefully you did too!!!! :D :santa:

don't worry pris, even if it comes in late it'll get to the boys, and who knows, maybe coming in late wll make your card stand out even more then it already does

^ aww sweet :D

considering my crappy country's mailing sistem i'm just hoping it makes it, period!!! :P

for some reason i think my "happy holidays" message will get to them by mid june or something like that....... :dozey: :P

 

***********

 

can you imagine a vid of the boys getting the postcards on coldplay.com??? :wacky:

 

i know, too much to ask, but let me dream!!! :lol:

ohhh I have that same dream that would be sow awesome I can see chris now:

they.... they.... send us.... what? but but :stunned: :bigcry:

i'd cry along with him!!!!!! :bigcry:

me toooooo :bigcry: goshhh we're so mushy :P

well I will send mine tomorrow morning cuz I couldn't found stamps till tomorrow so I hope my postcard could be on time jiji

thanks

Argh, all of those posts about missing postcards have renewed my worries that mine will be too late/lost :wreck:

 

Oh well, I will try to be optimistic! :thumbsup:

zoe, i love the "help is just round the corner for us" part of your sig! :cheesy:. it's so perfect! :D

 

and i wouldn't worry all that much, guys. of course, there's always a chance of things getting lost, but think about how many pieces of mail people successfully get every day, how rarely things get lost. the odds are in your favor by a hell of a lot :wink:

 

i think the biggest worry is of postcards making it on time. of course, this isn't that big of a worry, since i bet they'll all eventually get delivered in some way, but that's what i see as the biggest worry. i think as long as you mailed the cards in the specified time frame, there's not that much to be worried about :D

^ Thanks, I figured you'd like it ;) I'm in love with your Twiglet picture, so together we have the ultimate avatar/sig combination! :P

 

And it's okay, I worry about everything :lol: The only thing that comforts me on the postcard-front is that this summer, my friend sent me a postcard from London on August 7th, and I got it on around August 13th. So that's good!
