What I Pledged

Rating and Please Don't Send

I always send out my swaps and if I'm a bit late I will message you before the due date and tell you. Please dont unfairly rate me if you don't receive a swap from me. I live in Australia and it can take for ever to deliver. If you unhappy with a swap for whatever reason please message me so we can talk about it.

I would prefer not to receive the following:

Items smelling of smoke/animal

About Me

Hi there, I am a 26 year old and have lived in Melbourne for 3.5 years. I moved here to study Geology and Meteorology at university.

I am the oldest of 8 children in my family. I have 5 brothers and 2 sisters.

In December and February I attended a couple of Dinosaur Digs (February dig is known as Dinosaur Dreaming, located in Inverloch, Victoria, Australia)

If anyone is interested in doing a private swap please message me.

Favorite Music

I am open to most music, however, I seem to be really liking electronic ambient music at the moment.

Favorite Books

When I was a child I grew up reading Enid Blyton books. They were great, it got me into reading as a younger child. My goal in life is to own every title of her books and have them in a home library.

I am currently reading the Harry Potter series, after my sister let me borrow them to read when I fell in love with the movies.

I think after this I will either start the Eragon series or the Twilight series.

Favorite Television

I don't watch these on TV (as I don't have one), I rent them out from the local video store and watch them.

Comment: This was sent weeks after the deadline. You only contacted me after I pm'd you about the swap. You also admitted you clicked sent even though you had not sent the swap. If you had bothered to contact me with a reason for your lateness I would have understood and happily waited but as you did not have the courtesy to do so I am rating you as required by swapbot rules. Also many of the things you sent do not match my profile. The most obvious being a roll of 'It's a Boy!' ribbon. My profile clearly states that I am a mother of three teenage girls! Some items were nice and I thank you for them. Added 7/10 to say: It was sent 11 days after the deadline (9 days after you clicked sent) and I received it 15 days after hence my use of the word 'weeks'. This was a profile based swap and many things you sent were not on my profile, please do not use the changing of my profile as an excuse. I changed it after receiving your parcel as I wanted to be totally specific so mistakes like yours do not happen again. Next time message your partner if you are going to be late and don't click sent if you haven't!
Response: This was not sent weeks after the deadline, I missed the post due to not having money when I didn't have a job back then. I also sent you extra ribbons. I am sure that as a mother you have friends or relatives that have boys. I read your profile and made sure things were matched correctly. It's not my fault you changed your profile since my box was sent.

Comment: Very late but received on Aug 28th
Response: I have sent 2 parcels twice and sent a third today. I didn't ignore any PM's at all. You sent me a message and a few seconds later you rated me. Also, if you read my profile you would have read that I am having problems with swaps. I also sent you messages regarding this.

Comment: Thank you for sending out the envelope. I liked the extra stamps and some are new for me. However, I have to notice here that you were 2 months late with this swap. P.S Australia does have small stamps for international post, I have received a few envelopes from your country covered in various stamps.

Comment: Love the designs- I am torn between using them or keeping them. (hate to use them for letters-so I may have to wait a little while and enjoy them longer)

Swap-bot friends forum is rather lonely, how about spreading some love and checking it out!

Theres a new tag and round robin, games and if you've not done yet, post your birthday!

Thanks!

You might want to note on your profile that australian mail does take longer especially with the on and off again strikes. To make a larger font just add # sign before and after sentence. ;)
