I've received and sent cards to many of you over the last couple of weeks. When I look at the list, it's just incredible, and I want to express my appreciation for the wonderful postcards from:

 

CraigR, Okami, PaulK, Hari317, DJMort, inkypete, Jakespeed, spotted and speckled, Penhorse87, sdcurnow, Passion, GreenVelvet, pmsalty, Hookem11, hdubious76, girlzoot, pyotrkot, tr3n1ty, Asianbran, Bearcat, Ginigin, Ms Hurricane.

 

Thanks again, and keep 'em coming! (I sent out a batch yesterday.)

Glad to hear that hdubious76 liked the skyline photo of London, Canada. We don't have much of a skyline compared to larger cities, however, this is a nice size city to live in and raise a family. Many parks and green spaces as well.

 

Nothing received in the mail the past few days but I did send a card off to sdcurnow today.

 

Since postcards of my city are hard to find, I am looking into having some made up. There used to be a Parker ink factory here and I have a photo of it (that I thought I would try to use) although it is a rather non-descript building. If that does not turn out to my liking, I might try to take some photos of my pens. Perhaps a nice photo of my complete Pelikan City series collection.

 

In the meantime, I do have several London, Canada cards left so this is your chance to get them while you can. Give me a holler if you want to exchange cards!

I read the first page of this forum topic, but it looks like the list hasn't been updated since 2007. Can anyone please tell me how to join in on this, and where the updated list is for those participating?

 

Thank you!

There isn't a formal list. You just find somebody that you would like to exchange cards with, send them a PM and exchange details.

 

I have sent you a PM.

Received a neat card from okami with cats on it!?!? I am wondering if the dogs told her to get rid of these postcards?

 

I let my dog sniff it and she wanted to play catch with it (we did not!).

I have a large batch of replies to send out today: Okami, PaulDavid, kazushizuku, FredRydr, jazztonight, misterh, ShadowWriter, and MsHurricane. Initial cards out to sammy21290, hdubious76, and ribbit.

 

Sorry it's going out so late Sam, things have been kind of weird for me lately.

Anybody remotely interesting is mad, in some way or another.

I've chalked up over 350 cards now - way too many to acknowledge individually as they come and go. Hope everyone understands. Just want to let everyone know how much I appreciate the cards I receive and how much I enjoy sending cards back to you. This is a lot of fun.

Card received from MsHurricane. Reply will be on its way shortly.

 

Also, tr3n1ty, Pauldavid, Inkypete, Okami and sammy21290, I took your cards to the Post Office after work last night, but they would not accept them, due to the postal strike today and tomorrow.

 

I shall try again on Saturday, so hopefully they should be with you before too long.
