Well I think it's you and cabbage who's organising it so perhaps we should think about getting dates set and names of who wants to take part? We could do a late-summer swap and then another one for autumn?

aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaagggggghhhhhhh  I had completely forgotten about that. (Lloyd's fault).
I thought we had decided to miss the summer swap and do an autumn swap to give us all time to get organised? How about late September? If we wanted to do a Christmas swap, three in a short space of time may be a bit too much... Perhaps this is the moment to ask who would like to join in? Names on a postcard please
Um, how does one organise a swap......
