Thank you so much Louise!!

Well done for saving the day Louise. Very kind and generous.

Your a star Louise what would we have done without you.

Steady on but thank you.

It just seemed such a shame Andies hard work was going to waste.

Charts have arrived so I am going to choose something. It is nice pile

Phew ! so we're off again.

Glad you found something you liked Monika.

Fantastic news that this is up and running again

Thanks Louise

Good to know we're on the way again!

That's fab it back on! Thank you Louise, very kind.

If it goes awry again I have loads of charts and can make up another bundle if needed. Lets hope it doesn't of course!

nice to see this is back on track again
maybe for future exchanges it would be worth researching whether signed up users are regular forum users

Sounds like a good idea but may not work as I'm not here as much but keep my eye on things when I get emails to say there's a reply on certain topics

I also think that is a good idea. Zoe, everybody on here knows you're a regular! I've been on here less than a year and you are one of the first "regulars" I recognized making posts.

Maybe a compilation of things...how long you've been on here, how many posts you've made, last time visited, etc. However, that would probably eliminate newbies and I think there were a few that signed up for this one that would have been blocked had we had prerequisites. I don't really know what would be "fair". It looked like that 1st 2 went off without a hitch, so maybe this was a one time only ordeal!!

I would call myself an onlooker personally as I don't comment as much as I used to but thanks for seeing me as 'a regular'.
The only thing I will say is maybe anyone who has joined a previous exchange and dropped off the map with the charts (like has happened this time) should be banned from future exchanges.

I agree in parts with the previous comments but would like to add that unless Brooklynne comes back on the forum with an explanation, we won't know whether she posted them on, for example, or maybe lost them and is embarrassed to say.
Hope it's as Andie said "maybe this was a one time only ordeal!!"

Well don't feel bad about this one getting off track the first and second exchanges that I started got lost some place on the middle of the exchange. We were really excited to make this work so when the 3rd finally finished it was so exciting!!!!!!

Sometimes things just don't work as we had hoped. I am sure that now that it is going again it should be fine.

tomorrow I will send the charts to vanessanjf.

Great charts you picked, thanks for sharing!

OT- is this little guy new? I havent seen him before, but that doesnt mean he hasnt been there all the time

Great choices!! I can't wait to receive the charts next
