I really don't know what is worse ...

 

The wait to hear something itself or the speculations going on which stir everything up a million times ... :(

 

I simply do not want to wait any longer. It would just make my day if we heard back from Debs and she would describe a bit what the guys said and how many cards it was in total ('cause that's what I am really curious about!).

 

Ahhh well ... patience isn't one on MY virtues :laugh3:

My day, too! I want to know what was the reaction, and how many cards it was :P

Patience is one of my virtues but even I'm fed up waiting.

 

My "Christmas Greetings from Cornwall" card is looking a bit stupid now, maybe they should put it away in a cupboard until next December!

I think it's cute that a lot of us sent them good wishes during the holidays and the upcoming < now present > year...... :nice: it will just come to show them that we've been with this project for while, and wanted to give them a nice < though a bit delated > christmas prezzie :D

That's why I suggested a few weeks back, that one should write another card as the handing over didn't take place back then and if writing another card, then something with Easter bunnies or easter eggs on the front ;)

Good idea, Easter greetings from Cornwall it is then, with bunnies!

agreed--it's the thought that counts, and debs has been nice enough to organize all this for us, so even though we're all bursting from excitement, she's doing her best to get them to the guys when she considers is best and easiest :wink:. i think that the christmas theme will still be appreciated, no matter what time of year, because it shows we were thinking of them at the holidays (though i think we're pretty much ALWAYS thinking of them :lol:).

what happens if all guesses run out? can we have another go then?

 

when i visit the bakery, i'll drop some jaffa cakes down the mail slot.

 

/random

 

so who wants to tell me what's the story with these jaffa cakes? are they just english?it seems pris and min have some, but chelsea doesn't, and you can get them in britain, but I can't buy them here...

:inquisitive: this sounds like a riddle..

 

 

You keep saying that everyday and what happens?!?!? NOTHING!!! :laugh3:

 

Girl, we wanna see some action here .... give us all a real good imitation of biting the dust ... :wink3:

 

Everything else is just pie in the sky ... :P

 

Honestly, I like this supsension... this way we'll appreciate the reaction even more.. I guess this is what it feels like to be at some award show for coldplay :lol:

 

and the winner is..... *cut to commercial* d'oh!

Exactly ... but then again, this little fella fits in here just perfectly angry5.gif 'cause that's how I feel. I WANT some news ... angry4.gif.

 

Okay ... of course that was way exaggerating ;)

Just wanted to make my point clear, everyone :laugh3:

@ carla: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jaffa_Cakes :P

 

they're english, primarily. i can actually get them in america, but not in the area of the state i'm in, because it's all hickish and rural :P. they don't exactly import much here :lol:. but i can get them easily at home (they're just really expensive). i bet you could find them without much trouble in holland!

 

i think if all the dates run out, we should get to guess again, but that's just me :wink:.

 

and you LIKE the suspense?! :inquisitive: you're crazy! :P

but once we get a response we'llbe like this:

smiley_crazy.gif

and it'll make it alll worth the wait :D

 

edit ^ i'll consider that a compliment... and I'l start my search for jaffa cakes in holland tomorrow..

 

edit2: if you want them in holland you get these:

I am now in on the jaffa cake thing as i LOVVEE Pims! :D

 

and min, since you're bringing jonny jaffa cakes, can I bring Guy Pim's and then everybody should bring their local brand :lol: we ould call it jaffa cakes from far awar project :lol:

All day today i was thinking about the boys in the studio getting the cards.

For some reason, i really felt like today was the day. I don't know why.

I've had butterflies in my stomach since i woke up this morning!

 

And I'm sad to get here and see nothing...

:(

hey you guys.... today was so freaky....

I went to these advertising talks in London.... then when I came out of the room.... by these stairs..... was a Coldplay butterfly on the floor!! :o

 

very, very strange.

I took a photo.... http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v301/crazyduckette/DSC00632.jpg

maybe it's some sort of sign.....:uhoh: :lol:

 

OMG i would have squeed right there!! :stunned:

I don't have any, i've actually never tried them :( <aparently that may change soon :P> i was just having a laugh with Min when all these crazy jaffa cakes talk started.... :uhoh:

OMG do you realise that maybe because they're inside butterfly confetti rain everynight butterflies mught be permanently attached to them :stunned:

 

you should tell the oracle.. I remember some girl did the same when she saw a butterfly the day after a concert at a boxing matc I think, and she got a mention :)

That butterfly story is so great!:dance:

I had a butterfly in my wallet (somebody sent it to me:nice:), but I lost it the other day:cry:, it must've fallen out! I wonder if that's what happened with this butterfly you found?!?

 

RE: jaffa cakes...I've heard them mentioned many times, always wondering what they are...and now that I see that pic with PIM's...I think I actually have seen them in my local supermarket! Next time I'm gonna get some:D

:freak: that butterfly story is so great! i wonder if it's a sign too! :P

 

i don't know, i agree with makayla and alison or whoever else it was that had the gut feeling...i had a gut feeling today too :lol:. maybe the hand-off was today, and we'll hear by friday or something :shy:. three gut feelings and a random butterfly sign have to mean SOMETHING, right? :thinking:

Ok, I'll add my two cents to all the theories AND the Jaffa Cake discussion :D

 

I love Jaffa Cakes as well and enjoy this running joke really much!!

So many people I know hate them and it's always funny when I see that I have more in common with you guys than the obvious thing / love!

Liking the same kind of music makes it more probabilistic that we share personality traits, but culinary similarities go beyond that.

Ok, end of psychological talk now.

 

 

 

Here follows my line of argumentation:

The 28th was my guess, and here's why:

(just to add to the tension everybody's dying from already :sneaky: :P )

 

- They tend not to post / publish two huge things on the same day.

- If you have a look at the calendar, you can see that on the 28th, there are no events, on every day remaining in this month there already IS an event.

- Read all the other posts from today about theories :) - There is something happening at the Bakery at the moment!

- Debs said she won't use her weekend for the delivery, so I guess this applies to telling about it to us as well as it involves a lot of work (it was HER who mentioned "plans"!!!!)

- She said the handing-over would happen in January.

 

-->

 

 

ERGO -->

 

 

FOR THAT REASON -->

 

 

AS A RESULT -->

 

:dance: :dance: :dance: :dance:all other days this month are less likely than today!! :dance: :dance: :dance: :dance:

 

 

 

:lol: So what do you think about my theory?

 

 

 

 

 

so who wants to tell me what's the story with these jaffa cakes? are they just english?it seems pris and min have some, but chelsea doesn't, and you can get them in britain, but I can't buy them here...

:inquisitive: this sounds like a riddle..

Actually, I'm not too sure if I can buy them here in Singapore :uhoh: The last time I ate them was in Australia, really. I miss them :(

and min, since you're bringing jonny jaffa cakes, can I bring Guy Pim's and then everybody should bring their local brand :lol: we ould call it jaffa cakes from far awar project :lol:

:laugh3: We have a new project already!!!

:freak: that butterfly story is so great! i wonder if it's a sign too! :P

Maybe today :bomb: I'll be checking back after work.

Okay, wouldn't it be cool if we could come up with some sort of

butterfly/message in a bottle type thing.

 

--Where we start leaving butterflies from the show in strange places around the world and see how many coldplayers find them & post a pic here. .....

 

Or even better, stuff some into a balloon to let go- with name & address writtten on them with a request to mail back to us if found. I like that idea.

On second thought I don't because it is sort of littering and I would worry the balloon would end up in the Atlantic ocean, choking a sea turtle or something. Damn.

It was a cute little daydream while it lasted.....:sad2:
