I checked today and still nothing however we have had a large storm system over us which has closed our main highway in and out of the city for the last 2 days with approx 150 semi trucks lining the highway with nowhere to go!  This highway opened this afternoon but it will probably take a week for all the backlog to be sorted!

I hate all this waiting!!

It will be along. I had one take its time to come, but it did show up.

Correct me if I am wrong but I think the year 2007 there were 45 people doing the swap. Not sure on the other years since this has been going on. Does any one know how many we have had each year doing the swap?

bear_wub  bear_wub  bear_wub Don't feel bad, one year my ornament was returned back to me, and then I had to resend, due to wrong address.  That was to Tawian.  But it got straightened out.  so will all the missing ornaments.   bear_wub

According to the postal service tracking the recipient of my ornament received it last week. I sure do hope she liked it as she hasn't posted anything.   bear_sad

I never had a reply of my recipient - although I sent it out at the end of November, when no storm and no bad weather did any damage to the postal way - so I'm not so happy, but maybe she didn't like it!!! OMG bear_cry  bear_ermm  bear_sad

Oh Andrea,
I'm so sorry...I did receive your beautiful little shining star just before Christmas...he is gorgeous and did take pride of place on this year's tree!
You'll have to forgive me as I opened the package late one night and thought "I'll put up a post tomorrow", which came and went!
A million things have happened since then, and not once (naughtily) have I had a chance to get onto Teddy Talk!
I thought by not organising the swap this year I might have had more time to catch up things- but I was wrong.....very wrong!!!

All TT's will have to forgive my absence on the forum this past year, with two little autistic boys at school age I'm afraid when time isn't going in to them and fighting our school system battles, goes to our bear shop....I miss not catching up on news and new creations - but have made it my NYR (New Years Resolution) to check in more often  bear_flower

Hugs
Mel

PS Andrea did you get a pic of him before you sent him for posting, if not I will take one on the weekend  for the TT tree

PPS There were around 45 participants in the last 2 years also Linda, I can't remember exact numbers but that's about right.

I don't know if I'm the only one - but I haven't received my ornament yet - I think it's lost!

When I do receive it I will make sure I post a pic!

Hello Mo Beary - you aren't the only one - we are in two ........ think, I didn't get anything here in Austria ......

but I'm happy because now I know, my ornament reached the new home before Christmas. Well maybe next Christmas will be better, I will participate once more and maybe this year I will have an ornament also for me.....

Hugs to you

My ornament arrived safe at its destination as well which makes me happy.  I haven't lost hope - there has been such terrible weather in the world that things do get delayed. 

I hope you receive yours soon Andrea.

My swap partner hasn't acknowledged receipt of my contribution yet so I have to assume it hasn't arrived yet either.  I put it in the post on 4th December...  bear_sad

Cheers,
