Hi Lauren, I just came across your page as I was browsing the Active Aussie group, so thought I'd say hi!. I love Frankie Magazine too, I don't have number 5 though, and you wouldn't want one of mine as I cut them to pieces! we are both in Australian March babies,so see you around the swaps!

latinmermaid on Jan 6, 2012:

Happy New Year :D Got your letter!! Thanks for the mug rug and cute bookmark - am using both :) I had no idea about what happened to you. I hope you are ok now? Hope you had/are having a fab time on your trip!! I'll reply soon :)

latinmermaid on Nov 11, 2011:

My grandson has just knocked on my door with your package. I LOVE the journal, it is so pretty and I write all the time so fill journals quickly - can't wait to start on this one. The assortment of paper is lovely too - nice to have something different to write on when I send my swaps. Thanks heaps for playing the "Not Crappy Pick 2 Swap"

latinmermaid on Sep 6, 2011:

I was really hoping you wouldn't be mad at me - I felt so bad!! Yes, same address as on the envelope. I look forward to hearing from you :)
