Apologies guy’s, unfortunately my laptop windows installation got corrupted on me the other weekend and recovery media didn’t work either.  So I have been struggling to get a working windows 8.1 installation on this 8 year old device. Anyway I have just finished rebuilding it so I can now get my postcards sorted over the bank holiday weekend.

So apologies for being tardy, and hopefully the postcards will be on their way next week.

Regards

Mike

I must admit that such a setup must be painfully slow.
If you don't care about windows and want to make it speedy once again switch to MX Linux. It's made for older hardware, it's secure and looks fine.

I too have been slow to get started. It's the end of the semester, which means mounds of grading and whatnot. Rest assured I will kick my printer into life and get cards out in the next week or two.
Any man who can see what he wants to get on film will usually find some way to get it;
and a man who thinks his equipment is going to see for him is not going to get much of anything.

Hi everyone, thanks for the slew of wonderful cards that have been trickling through my door over the last couple of weeks; they're all gorgeous and it's been a real tonic seeing them. Predictably enough I haven't done mine yet - although in my defence I've been searching high and low for a specific Polaroid photo that I want to use and now can't find anywhere. Grr!!

Collection building nicely with the addition of Shaun's card this week, thank you.

And now, an admission, quickly followed by an apology.
Having posted my cards and relaxed my mind around a week ago, I went to find a pen in the desk drawer yesterday, and found... 3 postcards, all written, addressed and internationally stamped... Oh my..! How did that happen..?
So, for the 3 amigos who will not yet have received anything from me, they are now, after a short and wholly avoidable hiatus, on their way, and I am truly sorry for my tardiness.

OK, all my postcards are in the mail! North American residents should get them by end of week. Thanks again for all the ones I've received so far; they have been commandeered to adorn my wife's at-home workstation. it's nice to have some new artwork in our home!

Mine are finally on the way as well. Apologies in advance for the brevity of my correspondence.

Adam's card arrived in the UK today from the US - 5 days is quite impressive. But the most impressive thing is the picture itself - if you haven't received yours yet, you're in for a treat.

Thanks to all - it's been a really good exchange

And my cards were finally mailed out this week! End of semester things, vacation, and waiting for delivery of the service I used...these things made me all last-minute-y, but I'm still in before the deadline :)
