I missed the sign-up for this exchange (not sure how, I'm on here every day). I am however one of the lucky recipients of Astrobeck's extra postcards, and it is beautiful.

So, Thank you, Becky for the postcard.

I will try to catch the next one!

Mine are now in the hands of the Royal Mail - God bless her and all who sail in her.

haha! bring it on

I'm glad you do. just send me yours and we'll make it happen.
I'm moving on from what I originally made in the darkroom but I've def got more stuff that I was choosing between.

Harvey · « **Reply #160 on:** August 24, 2011, 07:07:28 PM »

Popped mine in the post today. Thanks to Erin, Becky and Piet for setting the bar so high already!, love them.
Due to minimum order quantities I, like others, have got spares. I need to keep a couple back (in case any get lost in the system/kidnapped by a fine-art dealer etc.)

so if you're interested and not on list 2 let me know your address. Initially I have 4 spares.

Harvey

Oh my goodness glory. I've been away for the last month and just picked up my mail from the post office - what a surprise (and reminder of what I need to do!). I've not yet begun so I will be a little late! This is fabulous!!

LT · « **Reply #162 on:** August 25, 2011, 05:15:35 PM »

got a lovely card from Britt today - thanks - really nice.

Britt Aximon · « **Reply #163 on:** August 25, 2011, 06:31:43 PM »

You're welcome, Leon. Got a wonderful card from you as well. Love it

Thank you.

Francois · « **Reply #165 on:** August 26, 2011, 07:41:20 PM »

Just got Leon's card!
It survived the mail beautifully. And those clouds are just wow...

johann · « **Reply #166 on:** August 26, 2011, 08:42:40 PM »

Just posted mine this afternoon.
Keep an eye out for them.

LT · « **Reply #167 on:** August 26, 2011, 08:42:59 PM »

Wow! That was quick Francois! Glad you like it.

Francois · « **Reply #168 on:** August 26, 2011, 08:49:53 PM »

Mail always surprises me... sometimes it takes weeks to get to one place while other times it takes only days...
I think I got it so fast simply because our regular mailman took the afternoon off

pdewolff · « **Reply #169 on:** August 27, 2011, 01:47:41 PM »

Todays harvest: Harvey and Damion, again two more beauties in my filmwasterpostcardexchangecollectionbook...

Diane Peterson · « **Reply #170 on:** August 27, 2011, 05:52:33 PM »

Have received some beautiful postcards..I love this entire postcard thing..I love making and sending them out and such a joy to receive all these lovely works of art..my postman is so envious!!
All my postcards were mailed yesterday..

Diane Peterson · « **Reply #171 on:** August 29, 2011, 08:52:05 PM »

Just received a wonderful postcard from Britt! This is so much fun!

astrobeck · « **Reply #172 on:** August 29, 2011, 10:11:27 PM »

Yippee! this is better than Christmas...actually a lot better because I never get this many cards!

Received some beauties from Damion, Harvey, Britt, and Karl. Love them all!!!!

The bonus is all the cool stamps on the cards! I collect stamps too so this is like the jackpot!

Alan · « **Reply #173 on:** August 29, 2011, 10:28:35 PM »

Thanks Britt, Leon and Suzi - lovely cards!

Diane Peterson · « **Reply #174 on:** August 29, 2011, 11:05:04 PM »

Yes those stamps are the other lovely bonus..My daughter is so envious..she has been collecting postcards and stamps since she was 5...serious..I am sure she has every piece of mail-stamps /postcard/books she has ever received..no joke..

vicky slater · « **Reply #175 on:** August 30, 2011, 10:20:52 AM »

Thanks everyone for the lovely cards, Skorj, Leon, Britt, Alan, Francois and Suzi!
They're all sat on the shelf by the front door and get regularly admired.
:)

I have mine ready to write now so I'll try and get them out this week!

Suzi Livingstone · « **Reply #176 on:** August 30, 2011, 02:06:03 PM »

I've got 3 cards left if anyone else who wasn't on my list wants one - just pm me your address. Also Skorj, I accidently wrote out 2 cards to you (because I forgot I'd already written you one DUH)..

astrobeck · « **Reply #177 on:** August 30, 2011, 07:17:02 PM »

oooh! A really nice card from Rob today!

Love it, and it's prompted me to load a camera with some Fuji Acros!

Francois · « **Reply #178 on:** August 31, 2011, 08:41:08 PM »

Got a magical 2 postcards in the mail today!
Our postman must be out of his mind!!! Carrying such weight is sure to break his back

Britt: Got your lovely postcard today. It looks like it traveled first class. Not a scratch on it and the stamp isn't even cancelled! Unbelievable.

I also got a card from somebody named Charlotte... whoever it might be.

Britt Aximon · « **Reply #179 on:** August 31, 2011, 08:52:44 PM »

Francoise, so pleased it made it all the way to you, and that you enjoyed it

Thank you all, I have got such lovely cards as well; Harvey, Charlotte, Jojonas, Leon, Alan, Francoise and Skorj, your pictures are great! Thank you!

Yesterday, the Mailman brought me some lovely "snowy peaks" from Suzi

Well... they're not real snowy peaks but I like to think they are

And - mystery of mysteries ... who is Charlotte?

Got yours...

As for the mystery person, I still don't know who this is. When you have to use Google to figure out who someone is, it doesn't come across as very friendly to me $:-\$

I haven't received yours yet Leon, but my postal service is notoriously bad..

Alan - I love the silvery sheen on yours
Francois - lovely, reminds me of the summer we never had in blighty this year heh
I got a lovely big truck from Diane!
Fab pinhole from holga mad Britt
Moody shot from Skorj
Lovely card from Charlotte

and thanks also to Beck and Harvey!

Diane Peterson · « **Reply #189 on:** September 07, 2011, 10:55:07 PM »

Yes, also recieved a lovely card from Charlotte..the mystery woman..all I had was a first name to put on the list!!

Francois · « **Reply #190 on:** September 07, 2011, 11:00:29 PM »

OK, I'm double checking my send out list and there are a few people I haven't heard from yet. If you got my card, please let me know.

Diane
Ailsa
Skorj
Charlotte

Diane Peterson · « **Reply #191 on:** September 07, 2011, 11:04:11 PM »

Francois..I am so sorry..I wrote a note to you in my brain but forgot to put it on paper (so to speak) I got your wonderful postcard about a week ago and Randy (my husband) and I both decided we would love to visit this spot..thank you so much...forgive me!!

Francois · « **Reply #192 on:** September 07, 2011, 11:25:58 PM »

No problem Diane... I must admit I'd have a hard time finding the spot again

All I know is that I started in Knowlton (Quebec) and ended up driving for hours without having the slightest idea of where I was going

Diane Peterson · « **Reply #193 on:** September 07, 2011, 11:30:30 PM »

I love those kind of drives!!

Francois · « **Reply #195 on:** September 08, 2011, 05:27:46 PM »

Diane: I finally got your beautiful postcard!
It even came in a special "we care" USPS envelope!
The card got quite damaged in the sorting room and the postmaster even took time to tape it back together...
If something like that happened in Canada, I'm pretty sure I would have only received the bottom half!

I'm still quite happy with it

It'll go in the file with the envelope

Somehow, it tells a story too...

Diane Peterson · « **Reply #196 on:** September 08, 2011, 05:54:28 PM »

Francois...I will put another in the mail today..only I will put it in an envelope and write secret messages on it!!

You don't have to do that... It's fine (and part of the risks with postcards)

terces egassem

that's funny

Phil Bebbington · « **Reply #198 on:** September 08, 2011, 10:31:36 PM »

Mine are at least on their way to me! I should make the deadline.

Britt Aximon · « **Reply #199 on:** September 09, 2011, 07:06:13 PM »

Checking too, I sent mine couple of weeks ago, should have reached you by now, I think. Anyone in my group that whant me to resend, please let me know!
