Well, I would have jumped in to keep the number even, but I still haven't heard back from Linda yet... so not sure what's happening.

As I have just read, that Margo won't be able to join this May swap (she was my swap partner) I am looking for someone else to whome I can send a postcard this month. Would it be a solution if I send my card to Kathryn, as she would have been the other swap partner for Margo. If this is ok for you Kathryn just send me your address and I will send my postcard to you.

Greetings Heike

Kalona, acredito que você possa enviar para a parceira que ia receber de Margo, pois, ela vai ficar sem cartão. É só uma sugestão. Abraços, Algecira

Hello Kalona(or Margo).... I'm confused! Can we agree that Heike will now send to you and you to me? I think that you probably have my address from a previous swap but if not I will be pleased to send it again. Regards Katex

Hi Kalona, Heike and Kathryn,

It seems that the May swap has gone a bit wrong to sy the least, so am I right in saying that Heike is sending to Kalona and Kalona is sending to Kathryn?

Elizaeth it is Margaret Richards you are sending to.

I hope this clears up everything.

I grew up in Japan....great memories!!!

Kathryn Cooke said:

In Japan, until recently, 5th May was known as Boy's Day (Tango no Sekku), or the Feast of Banners. Families with boys hang colourful carp kites, called Koinobori, outside their houses - one for each boy, with the biggest representing the oldest boy at the top. In Japanese culture, the carp (or koi) represents courage and perseverance, as the fish is known for its strength and determination as it swims against the current upstream. Perhaps we could use Koi as a subject for May, or kites?

Hi Kathryn,

Yes, I guess I'll be sending to you.. I've had a quick look and found your addy, small miracle, lol!

Have we agreed on a theme yet? Two colours seems popular?

Fiquei feliz em Fé me avisar que já recebeu seu cartão, mais feliz por que ela adorou. Escolhi trabalhar em um tecido de seda na cor vinho e marrom com o bordado capitonê e contas. Obrigada por ter apreciado Fé. Abraços, Algecira
