We're waiting on ONE MORE PACKAGE and then we can close out this swap! YAY!

Maybe there will be a round two. I'm not sure I'd do it anytime real soon though, because things are about to get hectic for me, but eventually I might run a round two, unless someone else wants to.

international postage from the UK is usually 2-3 weeks tops. both the other packages i sent at the same time arrived within a week.

Hmmm.

I'm just not sure if I want to call your package lost yet -- considering Sphinxy's country had been having a postal strike, I figure it might take longer to get things sorted.  how about we give it one more week before declaring it totally gone? 

Do you have any type of tracking for it? a customs form number or some way that it might be trackable somehow? 

that's fine by me.

no tracking number i'm afraid - it's an extra $16 or so i think to send things recorded internationally from the UK (only 68p/$1.40 within the UK...grr...) and I couldn't afford it. I spent quite a bit on some of the materials so I guess I should've gone for recorded anyway.

I did get a receipt but I've no idea what I've done with it. I'll try and rummage it out.

Oh, I don't blame you for not getting tracking on it! 

Hopefully it will arrive this week!

Let's give it a little more time... I just received a book from england that someone from bookcrossing offered to send me and I had totally forgotten about it, and it took it two months to get here... so i'm guessing that british mail and honduran mail aren't pals... I'm also still waiting for my copy of Harry Potter and the deathly hallows, that my bf bought for me from amazon, and nothing yet... sooooo, it must be around there somewhere...
My mom doesn't know about it, so there is nothing to worry about, cos she's not really expecting it... I just hope it gets here cos of all the effort kathleenalice put on it... I had lots of fun making the package for tigercub_wabbit's mom, and received a beautiful email from her in return... and that made it all worth it...  And I really don't want to get an angel to send something to my mom, and then the package showing up (not cos it would be bad to spoil her and me but because it would be unfair)
So, let's wait a couple of weeks more (I hate to keep this swap active, when it should have closed ages ago ) I'm sure it'll show up...

[BeccaJaneStClair]

We can do that. you know more about your postal system than I would! 

How about we let it go until September 23, the first day of Autumn? 

[Sphinxy]

Sounds perfect for me... I will contact you guys as soon as I get it...
