I got one from **Pandora** – yesterday, apparently I didn’'t check the mailbox carefully enough. Oh well. A roller coaster _and_ a dinosaur! I love Valentine’s Day! ---

Today was a three-fer! I also got a roller coaster and a purple dinosaur from **Pandora** , a hand-made card from **McUne** , and a biiiiiig card with a Royal Mail sticker on the outside and no signature inside. I’m guessing **BooFae**! 😃 Yaaaay! It almost makes up for the bill from the doctor that was in the same batch of mail… _\_ ---

Mine are all put together, too. They will be mailed tomorrow. Except :smack: d’oh! as I was sealing the last envelope, I realized I forgot to sign them. Or even write anything in them. But I did include nice surprises, so I hope that makes up for it. 😃 You’ll know it’s from me because my Doper name is on my return address ---

E-cards have yet to be sent. Does anyone know of a decent site where a) I don’t need to register, b) I can delay the sending of the cards until Thursday, and c) the site won’t install all sorts of malware? ---

I snailed mine last week along with a parcel overseas. I know some of my cards have arrived already but no sign of the package having made it to it’s destination in the frozen wastes…oh well, hopefully the arrival of cards means the package is also well on it’s way! I only signed one of the cards, I thought I’d attempt to remain mysterious but as I might be the only UK doper on the exchange, that’s kind of redundant now, isn’t it? ---

[/QUOTE] I think it was mine that you signed 🙂 So as you understand, I got it. Especially liked the (printed) dedication on the outside of the card! 🙂 [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/sdmb-valentines-exchange-08/434743.md?page=4) [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/sdmb-valentines-exchange-08/434743.md?page=6)
