Hi all,

Have a get well card here for Meat, Mousie has passed it on to me, and if anyone else wants to sign it, please PM me with your address so i can send it on to you.

I know there is an online get well card, and thats great, but there's nothing like the personal touch :D

I agree! A handwritten Get Well Card is much nicer! :bunny: :bunny: :bunny: But when is the deadline for sending it back to you - it will take some time sending it around; especially to other countries. :wink:

This is the card FM talked about, right? I cannot sign this, living in Holland?

If I can, please send it to me!!

Love,

Mariella

Eva
17 Jun 2003, 21:13
Can I after Mariella sign the card?
If I can, Mariella can send it to me and I send it to the next fan!
Okay?

Keep Rockin'

I'd love to participate in the hand-written card as well, but I'm in the Netherlands, Like Mariella. And I'm afraid I would slow things down for weeks. :cry:
Also: some snailmail that I was supposed to get from the USA, never made it here. :x

The card is now on it's way to Dottie - if anyone is interested, please PM her with your details :D

The Flying Mouse
18 Jun 2003, 19:39
:twisted: That's great :D .
Great news.
Don't forget to post here,so everyone knows what order the card is going round,and who needs to contact who with their address.
Otherwise Dottie will have loads of PM's and won't know who to send it too :wink: .
The easiest way to do it is to post here,then PM the previous poster with your address.

If we get a half decent chain,this could be a good thing to continue in the future for Meat's birthdays and Christmas :D .In the future,we could do this with a lot more time to spare,meaning that we could send the card abroad to be signed by our foreign friends :idea: .

At the moment the chain is....
Mouse.
Heat.
Dottie.

Keep signin' up. :twisted:

I like the thought of doing this for his birthday and Christmas. I would do something with a get well card but unfortunately by the time he got it he would already be back on the road. (And I've posted to various message boards already.) I would love to start one here in the US for his birthday. If anyone's interested in this let me know and I can get one going. Since it's in September we have plenty of time to deal with the mail service.

Lady B,

If you are starting up an American list for ML's b-day add me to it, please. Once you get an order of mailing going I'll PM whoever I need to with my addy. Will we send it to his management company once everyone has signed it?

Sherrie

Lady B
21 Jun 2003, 02:07
That's great Sherrie. I'll get a card this weekend and we can get this thing started. I'll send an email out to the ROL list (it's just about the only one I'm on anymore) and the OIFC list but for anyone reading and posting here this is NOT exclusively for those on these lists. ANYONE can sign and pass it on. Meat's fans span the globe but just due to the mail time factor I would like this one to stick to those in the US because we can get more to sign it that way. Maybe someone could get one going over in the UK and Europe too. We just have to get a list of people going to get the project going. For anyone who would like to contact me further please PM me and we can go from there.

As far as getting it to him, he's going to be in Clarkston, MI the night of his b-day, I think. I'm going to the July 23rd concert in Denver but no matter what, we will find some way to get it to him. Come hell or high water, we'll get to him. (I just haven't gotten that far yet.) :D

It should be going to Cerymeatloaf, then me.

Or should we just send it to him now?

The Flying Mouse

I think it should go to Cerys then to Tukayaway,then to Louise who can send it to the club to be forwarded onto Meat.

When should we start on Meat's birthday card?
We've got to make sure we leave plenty of time for it to get round all the different countries this time :wink: .

If his performances over the weekend are anything to go by Meat is already feeling a lot better.But there's nothing wrong with still sending him our best wishes :wink: .

The Flying Mouse
08 Jul 2003, 21:53
OK,I think the UK thread is sorted out now :D .

Flying & Mrs Mouse.

Dottie.
Badger.

I really want to keep this thread as clear as possible to keep confusion to a minimum :wink: .
If i've missed anybody out of the correct standing order or if you would like to be included in future cards but don't have your name down,please PM me rather than posting and i'll make the necersary edits to this post.

:twisted: Great.
Keep signing up people :D .
The sooner the better because it gives us more time to get the order right :wink: .
So,from England it goes to Holland.Where to then?
I think it would be better going to the US last,because if we can get an address to send it to over there,it saves the card crossing the Atlantic again :wink: .
All members in all contries are welcome to participate in this.
PM me or post here to be included.
Thanks to everyone who's signed up already :D

Asha

The Flying Mouse
13 Jul 2003, 19:38
:twisted: That's right Asha.
The card at the moment will go from Englant,to Holland,to Germany,then finally to the US.
But that is by no means the complete order.
As I said before,the US is the logical place for the cards last stop as it must eventually go there anyway.
It's not to late to sign up for this.All members in all countries are welcome to join in :D .

Hi JC.
I can certainly understand you're parents decision not to allow you to give you're address out on the web.After all,not so long ago there was a big ad campaign by the government warning that people on the internet may not be who they say they are.
An alternative to giving you're own address out is to ask you're local newspaper shop if they would be willing to accept a piece of mail for you.That way you still get to join in without giving any personal details out.
Just a thought :idea: .

But don't forget to check that you're contact stays the same.
It will always be the last person in Holland to send you the card.
At the moment that is Asha,but if any more Dutch members join the list,they will be you're new contact.

22 Jul 2003, 14:28
:twisted: Hi all.
Just to let you know that i've made a new topic for the cards as this has gone way beyond the get well card :lol: .
The new topic has the existing standing order at the top of the thread so it's easier to find and keep track of.
It's already written out and hopefully R. will move it to the General Messages and sticky it some time today.

As always,if you want to join in PM me and i'll edit the list to include you're name.

I've lost hope. It's Tuesday and still nothing. How about we send the Birthday card registered post?

The Flying Mouse
23 Jul 2003, 02:21
Hi Tukayaway.
It's not looking good is it :cry: .
I was going to sugest that everyone send the card next day registerd mail.Cards sent registerd delivery are tracked by the post office every step of the way so it's virtually impossible for it to get lost.Also it gets around a lot faster.
I was a bit late in the day sending the card to Heat so I sent it next day registerd delivery.I was charged £4.05.I thought this was a bit steep,especially since we have quite a few younger members.I wouldn't want a large postal charge from preventing anybody signing :( .
I have left a few tips on postage on the new card topic to bring the risk of loss to a minimum.
Although it will not be insisted on as a condition of signing the card,i'm sure it would be very much appreciated by everybody signing the card if as many people as possible can send the card registerd next day delivery.

23 Jul 2003, 11:23
im sorry about this all i did post im sorry it got lost

The Flying Mouse
23 Jul 2003, 13:30
:twisted: It's OK Cerys.Nobody is blaming you.
It's an unfortunate reality that mail sometimes just gets lost in the post :( .Once it's posted you have absoloutly no control over it.
I've left a couple of pointers on mailing the cards on the new list to get the risk of loss to a minimum.
I'm not saying that you didn't do any of these things :wink: , it's just a couple of things that could be easily overlooked.
Hopefully we'll have more luck with this one.
An internatinol card is an exciting thought.It's just never been done before.
We're making Royal Mail history :lol:

cerysmeatloaf
23 Jul 2003, 22:51
will definatly send this one registerd delivery
