I'm sure you save up for later, Fiona. As long as you don't waste it like people in Michael Ende's "Momo" ;-)

I hasten to add I didn't read the whole of the page myself - just enough to see the difference between A, B and C sizes of paper! :mrgreen: I'm not that strange, honestly... :wink:

Thanks for your (C4! :wink: ) envelope, which arrived today, Fiona - your Journal is now on it's way to you! :-)

Glad they got there okay! :-) Not so sure I have 'beautiful handwriting' - but thank you for the compliment! :-)

That's great - glad it arrived. :-) Now there's just Walter's Journals...but he hasn't been on here since May. Does anyone know if he's okay? :?

Received your envelopes today, Walter and all sent off now. :-)

Thanks to everyone who participated and made it an enjoyable experience - it felt good to be able to help people out by supplying missing Journals to add to their collections. :-)
