G'DAY!
Australia Day is approaching (26 January) and I feel, as an Aussie, I should host an
I sometimes feel that us Aussies aren't as patriotic as we should be and I want to play a part in some sort of good old "mate ship" and show some kindness to a fellow person and give some lovin'.
The way I thought we could "celebrate" is to send 9 items to a fellow swapper. Now the way these items are to be chosen are – they have to start with each letter in "Australia
For EXAMPLE:
A – Australian Made item (you could make it)
U – Utensil, Ugly fabric
S – Sunflower seeds, Smiley fabric
T – Tea Towel, Trims
R – Ribbon
A – Apron
L – Lilac, Lavender, Lolly
I – Ink pen
A – Apple fabric
That is just some ideas I have come up with on the spur of the moment… but I am sure you all can come up with others.
Anyone interested? Leave a comment or email me.
Aussie, Aussie, Aussie.
Oi! Oi! Oi!

PS: A couple have asked about "posting date"... 16th January ..
PSS: Sign up closes on the 6th January..
PPSS: Only open to Australian residents (sorry to overseas people!), due to there being so many items, it could be too heavy to post..
