I looove the Logo (and I really like Chavi's idea about changing the background to match our flags... but I don't know how to do that :P). I definitely think it should say "Postcards from Far Away Project" on it somewhere as well.

I would be pro:

 

butterfly logo with coldplaying written on it

sender form far away

name and country

pone sentence in own language

and the rest up to us in English

and sending them to the bakery around the same time

So cool idea! And lovely butterfly :nice:

Hey, i've thought about a small hand writting by all of us and scanned them and put them all togheter in a VERY SMALL size (don't mind if it's not able to be read) in a page :D

 

could be nice :D

I love all the ideas! :nice: I'm sure they'll love something like this!

 

People who brought a butterfly from a concert could also paste it on the postcard and send it! (With the message "You forgot this!" :P)

I agree with all of them.

And "From far away" (without "project") sounds imho better, not so ... strict.

 

Probably we should collect some more ideas of all members for a few more days, and then once we have everything together specify a date for sending our postcards, and if necessary posting polls about things we don't agree.

Maybe we could just make the butterfly in the logo different colors for different countries? Make it look like the country flag or something... Of course, I have NO idea how to do that!

The Bistro's address is 4 Fleet Road

 

The estate agents is 2

 

Both share the same postcode, so it's probable the Bakery does too.

 

3 is probably over the other side of the street.

 

So for the address, how about something like:

 

Coldplay

The Old Bakery

Fleet Road

London

NW3 2QS

United Kingdom

I agree with all of them.

Yeah polls would be needed I agree

And anyways I will still try to find out abt the exact postal adress once I will be before The Bakery. If noone manages to do it before me hehe

Wow some great work has been going on here today :D

 

I love the postcard and well done on the address Pete :D

Yeah that's exactly what I thought as well ( aside from your funny message ;) )....this would be soooo cute

Wow this looks very good Texasluvsjonny !!!! :thumbsup:

Brilliant Angie!!

we could test the theory. if you send me a postcard, I'll tell you when it gets here.

 

pm me your adress and I'll try to do it during this week :P

 

 

Hmmm.... really? When Chavi sent me butterflies from France it only took a few days. :flutterby: Maybe it made a difference that it was an envelope and not a postcard, so the shipping was more?:thinking:

 

I don't know anything about sending postcards, but when Chavi sent me the butterflies it took a bit more than 2 weeks.... but when David sent me a vinyl it took like 3 weeks or a month...

 

 

 

 

Good morning, by the way! I had a dream last night in which I actually met Chris... I think this board has finally made me go mad!

 

that's why we post here all the day :P

polls are a good idea :D

 

 

me likes it :P

we could vote on a templet for the writing side, everyone can print it out and add their own picture to the photo side and all the cards would look the same but with different pics.

 

Yeah, like that! :lol:

 

Maybe we could print the butterfly in white though, then everyone is able to colour it in a way he/she likes to.

Excellent Angie :dance:

Mel has sent me stuff from the US and it hasn't taken long to get here at all. A few days max.

can't wait to make my postcard... this seems to be going great

 

I'm so happy :bigcry:

 

 

but also late for a class

 

Bye :wacky:

Wow some great work has been going on here today :D

 

I love the postcard and well done on the address Pete :D

 

Thanks Mich :) I couldn't agree more - so many brilliant ideas and inspiration from everyone here :flutterby:

 

I hope to be visiting the Bakery later in the week, so will check the address as best I can. It's quite possible it doesn't have a number, as lots of those types of buidings didn't in the past, still don't in fact.

 

When do we want them to arrive? They play London from 14th December for three nights (probably back in London that weekend after the Friday gig in Manchester). Too far in the future, should it be closer? I quite like that idea myself because it'll be a nice Christmas/New Year present for them, but the problem is the Christmas mail...

 

Maybe plan for them to start arriving from late Nov or early Dec, when they're back in the country for the UK gigs and will be around London quite a lot?

I picked that butterfly because it is a rainbow of colors, kinda like us. We could draw a little heart and color it to look like our country's flag at the end of each message.

it's a good point.. in that case the people from far away should start to send the postcards from november (20th or something like that :P )

Great idea Angie :D
