Journal Entry 1 by cat02886 from Warwick, Rhode Island USA on Monday, January 03, 2005

1. I will send out a surprise book with at least 10 bookmarks. I will not name the book I have sent.

2. The person who receives the book journals what book they received.

3. The person who sends the next book does not name the book they send. You do not have to send a book. It can just be bookmarks. But do not journal that you have done so. It is a surprise no less. lol

4. Keep the BCID number that you receive to journal.

5. The book or bookmarks are sent back to me at the end.
Anyone interested please sign up. If you are willing to send internationally please let me know your shipping preferences.

I think this will be fun!!

If anyone also is interested in putting a postcard of your state or country that would be fun too.

Part of my Surprise Bookmark ring. Sent to fellow bookcrosser in East Greenwich, RI. 

Journal Entry 3 by Ixion from Alexandria, Virginia USA on Monday, February 07, 2005

Aww, there are some nice bookmarks in here. I detect a small cat and art theme. I'm taking 3, adding 5. I'll update again once I mail this out. 

Journal Entry 4 by Ixion from Alexandria, Virginia USA on Monday, February 21, 2005

I've been a bad girl in not passing this on quite as quickly as I had wanted to. Mainly, I ran out of envelopes to mail with! I know, lame excuse, but when you work sometimes you just don't want to spend all weekend doing errands.. you just want to relax.

Anyhow, this is getting mailed to California tomorrow on my way to work. I hope you had fun. I ended up keeping 3 bookmarks. 

Journal Entry 5 by fizzfred from Sacramento, California USA on Wednesday, March 09, 2005

What fun! I have PMed echesketch and will send this out again very soon. Thanks so much for the fun ring, cat02886!!! And thank you for the book, Ixion. 

Journal Entry 6 by fizzfred from Sacramento, California USA on Monday, March 14, 2005

I sent this off to echesketch today. I took two bookmarks and put in 4. :)

3/24 Oh my gosh, I just found this in my car!!! I am so sorry. Somehow when I dumped a couple books in the mailbox this one didn't make it. It seems it fell under the seat. Tomorrow we are having a big birthday party over here but I will try really hard to find time to mail this (again). I am so sorry for the delay. 

Journal Entry 7 by echesketch from Landis, North Carolina USA on Monday, April 04, 2005

Received the package today. Heading into the kitchen now to browse through all of the bookmarks. I can tell already that it's going to be a tough decision...but a fun one to make! 

Journal Entry 8 by Pyan from Menasha, Wisconsin USA on Thursday, April 14, 2005

Received in the mail today with a surprise book.

Removed 4 bookmarks, and added 5. Will mail out on Friday if I receive an address in time.

This is so much fun!!

UPDATE: Received address from Peachy93722 so will mail out 4/15/05 (Friday)

Journal Entry 15 by WintersQT4ever from Ypsilanti, Michigan USA on Sunday, January 01, 2006

Thanks! I reiceved it about 9 days ago, but I pm'd genielady for the BCID and then left to go visit my grandparents before I got a reply.

Anyways, I took out 4 or 5 and I'll put in a few and then try and stick in the mail tomorrow (hopefully?), or as soon as I can get an address... Happy New Years everyone.

I will PM next on list and send on without taking any (selection is pretty minimal at this point in the ring). I will add a few for the next person to have some nice ones to choose from.

off to Dodau in the UK after not finding the person above her, and some detective work to find her address. I apologize for the delay, my real life also interrupted my getting to the post office. Enjoy the bookmarks. 

Journal Entry 18 by dodau from Ellesmere Port, Cheshire United Kingdom on Tuesday, August 01, 2006

Arrive today with a pile of bookmarks in the pages. Will check Redhouses wish list and decide what to send her. She's piled down with rings at the moment so another one will please her no end. Lol

Journal Entry 20 by lellie from Trimley St Mary, Suffolk United Kingdom on Wednesday, September 27, 2006

Oh you are so right dodau! I'm really maxxed out on rings, so I shan't be keeping both the books, just that fiendish crosword puzzle one.

Lovely bookmarks though and I've snaffled two and replaced with 5 or 6.
I'd forgotten signing up for this so it was a complete surprise!
Nice idea, I hope you enjoy the bookmarks cat02886, and that they all return safely to you.
Will be mailing on within the week 

Journal Entry 21 by star69 from Sittingbourne, Kent United Kingdom on Saturday, October 14, 2006

These have been sitting at the post office for a few days as I haven't found the time to go get them.
I had completely forgotten all about this it seems so long ago that I signed up for it.
Will get this moving again ASAP.
