Hadn't expected it to arrive [In reply to] Can't Post

earlier than at the middle or end of next week Shocked

And the post isn't better over here. My aunt once sent a parcel to my grandmother *express* on Friday and it arrived on Wednesday (should have arrived on Saturday!) - in that time, I could have carried it the 120 kilometers on foot!

Oh well, already made two drafts, trying to decide how to exactly do it.

Can't wait [In reply to] Can't Post

to see your page. And Boy am I relieved it got there ok, got almost no nails left LOL.

Yeah, the post is the same here, it can take a week for a letter to go from Bunbury to my house, a 10 minute drive away! Then they wonder why we all love email *shakes head*

Were you still going to ask leo to scan it for you?

*lol* [In reply to] Can't Post

Maybe it's because they send it somewhere else to sort the letters out? That is called 'centralisation', you know. When I post a letter here in A, it is transported to N, sorted, sent back to A and delivered ... *rolls eyes*

Well, I'll take photos, but that will take a bit of time, so we'll see. And first, I have to do the page, after all. So far I only have drafts.

Unfortunately... [In reply to] Can't Post

I don't have a scanner :-\ So I won't be able to scan anything, not even my own page... Which by the way, I still need to think about how to fill it *panic*

Don't worry [In reply to] Can't Post

I'll take a photo, ask for a CD when I give the film to the developer and later send the picture (yes, I'm one of these old-fashioned people who still don't own a digital camera and neither a cell phone with camera Blush). It will take a bit of time till the film is full, but if things go as planned, probably the week after next. But thanks for warning me that you don't own a scanner!

Oh yes, know the panicky feeling ;-( I hope to send the journal off until the end of next week, so you still have a few days to think about it. But when you are over the shock and panic, it's exciting! Smile

The first time [In reply to] Can't Post

I had the chance to see the journal page. I am looking forward to seeing more pages added.

My daughter's favorite line to quote:

Sam: Nothin'. Just a bit of seasoning. I thought maybe if we was havin' a roast chicken one night or something...
Frodo: Roast chicken?

Yes, it's in Europe [In reply to] Can't Post

Oh boy, have to make more tempo on the thing I want in it (everybody curious Wink, good, I like that).

Peredhil and Leo, I have a colour scanner, so if necessary I can scan them.

(Grrr, I'm typing this messages on a wireless keyboard, low on batteries, so no more messages from me today...)

Do you own a digital camera leo? [In reply to] Can't Post

If you do you could do the same as Eledhwen and Ro, they just photographed their pages and emailed them.

It is exciting to finally hold it yourself Cool

Thanks, Rosie! [In reply to] Can't Post

I'll try to manage it otherwise to not bother anyone, but if that is not working, I'd gladly take you up on your offer.

And of course, now I'm curious! Wink

Forgot to ask [In reply to] Can't Post

Has anyone told you that you use the email link on the journals webpage to send the images through to me? If you use the one in my profile in here it'll just get lost in transit as I don't use that very often.

Can't remember if it was mentioned in the front of the journal or not Crazy
