Signup Deadline: 1st April 2006

Details:
each member to choose their own theme, but every entry to include doodling in some form as per the owners instructions

Status: running

Rules for Mailing:
Posting of CJ, in a heavy-duty, bubble padded envelope which will take the reuse and abuse by Royal Mail!

It is recommended CJ is placed in a sandwich/ziplock bag to protect it from the elements.

As this runs through holiday periods, there may be posting dates you cannot make - please post on the thread AND pm the person you send to (and the person who sends to you) letting you know when you can post and accept the CJ. This way everyone knows what is happening.

If you have problems, please let me know and we can arrange to bypass you until things are sorted rather than have CJs stack up with one person. Again, this way things keep going without adding pressure to your difficulties.

Postage should be first class by recorded delivery. Please use packaging that will stand 10 trips in the post (waterproof inside bag plus padded envelope recommended).



So the groups are as follows, and each person will post to the one below, the bottom one posting to the top one!

Group 1: - on sep. thread
FlossieD - Wonder of Nature
Lellis - Flowers and Butterflies
SuzieR -
yummymummy - about you
Mammyhen -

janeycutting - Mother Nature

Hi Ali,
Just Checking In :D

[weezie]

just checking in too.

[Ria979902]

Hi all just popping in to say Hi:)

[InspireSpirit]

Checking in and apologising at the same time. Have posted today (late, soz Jak), and also may have to redo my pages when it gets back as my DS came down and nicked all my herma, double sided tape and glue dots for her new card making enterprise, lol. So I was stuck (pardon the pun), with PVA glue and it didnt work out very well.

[AJ]

hi all, sorry i just had to pop into your thread and say to Ria979902, i was at mafswife's today and she showed me your cj, it is fantastic.
Have fun in your group, and pop into group1 and say hi.

[Indigoniki]

I love this cj already - ok I have had just two glasses of wine and I may be very mellow :) - but my last cj wasn't at all chatty and this one is, so I'm jolly happy about it :D :) :D

Just checking in!

Niki

[AliTS]

Nice to see you Niki, glad you're enjoying it (and the wine!) :) and Sally :)

[Ria979902]

Well thankyou very much Ally:D, must admit thought it was a bit too simple really but I'm sure I'll love it when it's back home full of fab entries:)

[debbie70]

Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeek - I'm here i'm here I'm here .............. don't know whetehr I'm arthur or martha at the moment ... postie delivered Jakkis CJ today and I hadn't a clue why somebody had posted me a CJ... thought for a moment she was an eager poster till I realisd I've missed the posting date completely (insert shame faced head hanging similie here) So Ali if you are about please would you pm me your addy and I will send DH to the PO as soon as he gets up!!!!!!

[JakkiiG]

:lol: Debbie, glad it wasnt just me then :P

I have to admit pages were a tad rushed as I cant quite get the hang of doodling and didnt have a clue what to do........def chose a bad theme!

Ali, received Sals today.

[debbie70]

SO did you forget then too huni ? AM so relieved ... I have to put my hands up to being a notoriously late poster anyway BUT I have never just completely forgotten I was involved in a cj :rolleyes:
ETA just a had a thought that it was lucky I didn't mark your envelope return to sender and give it back to my postie :lol: 'cos it honestly took me a while to work out why you had sent it to me :P

[JakkiiG]

yep :lol: was getting it mixed up with another CJ Im in, thinking that I didnt have to post until 10th May :D

So unlike me too, as Im ususally a head of myself when it comes to CJS, except sals fairy one :lol: best not mention that (still have it here eeek!) good job shes a friend eh

[AliTS]

Glad you've found us Debbie - was wondering whether to pm you as you've been so quiet!! Will pm you with my addy now.

Have amended the list so we know what is what!

[weezie]

Niki, I have pm'd you as I'm off to denmark to visit my parents on Sat. for a week and have the next cj here and ready if you'd like it.

[AliTS]

I'm sure no-one is in need of inspiration but if you are try this (http://www.creatingkeepsakes.com/mag/article.ihtml?index_field=1657)

[AliTS]

Debbie, received your package safely this morning - many thanks - I'm looking forward to working on them. :)

[weezie]

niki, a cj is on it's way to you.

[JakkiiG]

hi Girls, when is the correct next posting date? Did they change??

[AliTS]

No Jacki they didn't - Debbie just sent yours on with hers as she had finished the entry (looking good :) ). The next posting date is 15th May as on the list, and I think the other one was posted because of holidays or something.

Don't panic!

[weezie]

I sent the next one early to Niki as i'm off to Denmark on Sat.:)

[JakkiiG]

No Jacki they didn't Phew! thanks Ali, having another panic then :lol:

[mafswife]

ok, so only just found this thread - thought you'd all been quiet!!

Just to say my theme is NOT flowers any longer - infact I forget what I changed it to in the end - perhaps WEEZIE Can remind me :D

[AliTS]

Was it Colour My World?

Unfortunately the first post was a cut and paste which I can't update, but I can update my tracking post once you confirm the title if that helps?

[weezie]

Ali-that´s right.:)

[debbie70]

Hi Gals .. just checking in to see what you are all up too .... espesh after that shakey start :rolleyes:
Ali - glad the CJ's got to you in the end ..... i will definitely try to do better from now on :P ....

[mafswife]

Yep - Colour my World - I remember now!! :D

[Indigoniki]

Ann, I have recieved Colour my World. Verrrry gorgeous it is too :)
So at present I have that and Weezie's.

Niki

[mafswife]

Thanks Indigoniki.
Am working on Maria's tonight, having so much fun :D

[Indigoniki]

Thanks Indigoniki.
Am working on Maria's tonight, having so much fun :D

DS1 has just looked at yours and said 'Oh, she's much better at scrapbooking than you Mum isn't she?' the DS2 came along and saw the sign in page and said 'Oh, you're going to have to think of some clever things Mum'
So nice that they have such faith in me :) :) :)

Niki

[mafswife]

Oh no, don't say that I feel bad now!!

If they were DDs and not DSs they wouldn't say that!

[Ria979902]

Posted Lizh's cj to Ann (mafswife) today:)

[AliTS]

Jackie - I'm off to the post office now! Please let me know when it arrives.

[Elphaba]

Will Do Ali,
I'm passing to Liz on Thursday, but I think she will be a little late posting! & it's my fault! I didn't think the posting date was till next week! Sorry.

[Indigoniki]

Posted Weezie's to Inspirespirit just now.

Niki

[JakkiiG]

I didn't think the posting date was till next week! me neither :lol:

But nearly done so not a problem

[lizh]

OOps I'm running late with this cj as a certain person told me it did not have tobe posted till the 22nd May. So sorry Maria Iwill rush through to the dining room table and get on with it right now!!!!! It will only be a couple of days late as most of it is coming together but I was a little ambitious as i thought I had another week. I will warn you when I have posted it.

[InspireSpirit]

I have received Louise (Weezie) cj today, and it is absolutely gorgeous.

[mafswife]

I have received the next one today and will be posting the one I have here tomorrow.

Waves to craftymum (met you briefly at Bonanza)

[lizh]

Well I've got it finished and DS is going to post it tomorrow for me - sorry it was slightly delayed Maria.

[Indigoniki]

I have received Louise (Weezie) cj today, and it is absolutely gorgeous.

Glad it arrived safely. It's sooo beautiful I wanted to keep it!

Niki

[weezie]

Ann, Maria's cj is here safe and sound.

Maria, it's gorgeous!

[AliTS]

I've updated the list - if anything is wrong please let me know - after a couple of rounds how is everyone doing - doodling on everything yet?

[InspireSpirit]

Ali, Jakki has Indigonikkis, and I just have Louises.

[AliTS]

Thankyou Sally :)

[Ria979902]

Received the next one sorry I haven't posted before

[weezie]

I only have Maria's.

[Elphaba]

Jackie - I'm off to the post office now! Please let me know when it arrives.

Sorry Ali, I thought I'd posted to say I'd received the next CJ, but I haven't!!

I have got it!! Will set to work soon :)

[AliTS]

I've recently had a pm from Debbie and sadly she has got to drop out of the CJ - she is really sorry about it and I think it would be nice to continue circulating her CJ (if you agree) so she can have a nice treat in a few months time. Big hugs Debbie (if you read this) and thanks for being upfront with us rather than stacking up piles of unfinished CJs.

So from now on, Jakki will post to me!

[weezie]

Sorry to hear that Debbie. Yes I'm more than happy to continue circulating it

[debbie70]

Aw thanks gels :wub: - I am so, so sorry to be pulling out ... :( :( :(

[JakkiiG]

Sorry to hear that youve had to pull out Deb. Happy to continue to do your CJ :D

[Ria979902]

Awww debbie sorry to hear that I was looking forward to having a debbie70 entry in my cj too:) take care-more than happy to continue:)

[Elphaba]

Sorry Your dropping out Debbie, :(
More than happy to do an entry in your CJ :D

[AliTS]

Just a reminder that the next posting date is June 5th which is next Monday :)

I have finished Jakki's CJ - had lots of fun, so ready to post next week :)

[Elphaba]

Hi Ali,
Post on now if you like, I'm ready, & Have passed the Love Quotes CJ onto Liz already :)

[AliTS]

Jakki, I received Sally's and Niki's in the post this morning - they look fabby.

As Jackie doesn't mind, I might post on early, as I have to go to the p.o. in the next couple of days, but I'll post on here to confirm if I do. :)

[JakkiiG]

[mafswife]

[Indigoniki]

Ali, I've just realised that you are in the photo comp final this month. I didn't click that it was the same Ali! Never would have recognised you from the black and white, very clever.
Just off to do some doodling.

Niki

[AliTS]

[lizh]

Sent you two cj's in one bag Maria - hope you don't mind. but i had finished both and thought it would give you longer to doodle!!!!!!!!

[InspireSpirit]

I passed Louise's CJ on to jakki today, as we were at the same crop.

edited to say: Posting is not until next Monday (26th) - some people are just posting early (including me). Please do not feel any pressure to post early, it just suited some of us this time.

[weezie]

Niki, do you mind if I send the cj off to you tomorrow as I've got to go to the PO for other stuff?

[mafswife]

I've update the list - sort of! Just back from a trip to the World cup and brain is a bit slow!!! :) Let me know if I've done something stupid! :D

What other than come back from the world cup?? I'd have stayed there!!

Am posting tomorrow, silly moo that I am I forgot to take it to work with me today and was on leave Monday. Soz

[AliTS]

I think our friends would have evicted us! plus no more tickets :(

I'll update the list. Jakki, did you post your CJ to me yet? I haven't got it or an RM card to fetch it - just wondering? :)

[InspireSpirit]

I am seeing jakkie at a crop on Sunday, so we have arranged to hand over then, if that's ok.

[AliTS]

Louise's CJ arrived safely today, although RM had managed to knock the RD slip off the envie and shoved it through the door - typical! But it's fine and thank you for the chocolate Jakki!

Looking beautiful, it will be a pleasure to work in, just have to have a think (and do Niki's first!:))

[mafswife]

OMG I'm so sorry completely forgot posting was today-well remembered but then forgot as the day went on!!!!

will post the 2 cj's I have first thing in the morning sorry I've got debbies love quotes & ali's au naturel

SORRY:(

Received today (collect from PO) got bit confused getting 2!!!

[AliTS]

It's because Debbie sent me 2, and when she dropped out I just left them together. Having said that I have 2 as well - am I just late or are we out of sync.

Does it matter? :D but don't feel that you have to do two this month, just send them on separately when you are ready if that suits you better. This is supposed to be fun, not stressful :)

[JakkiiG]

Ali, sorry about RM, but it was def posted recorded Delivery. Hope the chocolate hadnt melted in this weather :lol:

[weezie]

Ann, have you had a chance to send me the cj? I've been away for a couple of days.

[weezie]

Sorry Ann, it's here. I've been away for the weekend and the postman decided to leave it with the neighbour (which is okay as our neighbour is lovely) but didn't think that I needed to know so didn't leave me a card. (naughty naughty). I'm looking forward to doing my entry.

Niki, do you mind if i send it to you early as I'm off to Italy next Tuesday for 2weeks?

[mafswife]

cool - glad it arrived, did post last week

[Indigoniki]

I have recieved Yummy mummy's About Me.

These cjs are so beautiful girls. Every one is a real treat to open. I said to DS2 'Would you like to see this gorgeous cj, Joe?' He said (with exaggerated sarcasm) 'Oh yes please Mum'. When he'd flicked through he said it was beautiful and what a nice way it was to get to know people. I again thought he was being sarcastic but he actually wasn't!

Niki

[mafswife]

Erm, call me thick but why have you got Yummy Mummy CJ when she is in group 1 and you are in group 2?? I only know this cos I am good mates with YM and I know we are not in the same group!!

[Elphaba]

Indigoniki must mean my CJ, both YM & I have the same theme!!

[Indigoniki]

''Erm, call me thick but why have you got Yummy Mummy CJ when she is in group 1 and you are in group 2?? I only know this cos I am good mates with YM and I know we are not in the same ''

''Indigoniki must mean my CJ, both YM & I have the same theme!!''

Better call me thick then LOL! Beautiful cj CraftyMum!

Niki

[mafswife]

oh sorry - wasn't calling you thick!! But me, I just didn't get it!!! Sorry of I confused!!!, I'll just shut up :lol:

[Indigoniki]

oh sorry - wasn't calling you thick!! But me, I just didn't get it!!! Sorry of I confused!!!, I'll just shut up :lol:

Thanks for pointing it out!

Love Niki x

[AliTS]

Wow, love the avatar Niki - does your hair always do that?

[Indigoniki]

Wow, love the avatar Niki - does your hair always do that?


No, only for the self portrait photo comp'! I'd set the challenge and no-one was putting anything in so I thought I'd better show willing myself. I was just leaning forward over the camera.


Niki

[Elphaba]

Ali, Send the next journal on when you are ready! I'm twiddling my thumbs here! :lol:

Have passed Favourite Musicals to Liz. :)

[Indigoniki]

I have posted lizh's - nature trail or natural world onto Sally today.

Niki

[mafswife]

Will be a little late (again) so sorry, now at least I know why I have been feeling so rubbish lately, damn baby sickness (am due in Jan! - thought I had a bug!) Hope I'm not causing too much trouble :(

[AliTS]

woohoo Congratulations Ann, nothing like a little surprise to keep you scrapping.

I'm here to confess I haven't posted either, just been too manic lately, will try tomorrow, if I get time round DDs dancing exams, sports days etc etc. I was hoping to send Weezies as well but won't now as I haven't time to do it tonight. Sorry Jackie, hope you're not too cross with me.

[AliTS]

Just to let you know that sadly Sally (inspirespirit) has had to drop out of the group for personal reasons. All CJs done and undone have been passed to JakkiG so no-one's is held up. From now Niki will post to Jakki (I'll pm you with the address Niki).

Please continue with Sally's, until it gets home as it would be nice to finish it off for her if that's ok with everyone?

Big hugs to you Sally, please come and post on here if things get better. :)

[weezie]

Sorry to hear that you're having a tough time sally.

Ann, no worries about it being late I Just arrived back from Italy a couple of hours ago. :)

[lizh]

Maria
just posted you two cj's - sorry for the delay but I was up to my eyeballs in end of termitis and then terminal fatigue over the weekend.
They were posted yesterday so should reach you soon
Sorry again for the delay -I had no idea that the posting date had come and gone - abject apologies

[JakkiiG]

Ali, have done annes (maffswife) and will post to you tomorrow, will try and make a start on the other 2 I have here over the next few days.

Can you update me on the next posting date/whether Im behind please, lost track now having 3 at once

[Elphaba]

Ali, Sorry forgot to post! I have the Next CJ from you :)

[AliTS]

Received mafswife's from JakkiG this morning - looking beautiful! Jakki, I think you are spot on right now, you don't need to send any more until the next posting date.

I won't be on here for about a week due to work and holidays, I'll update when I get back on.

[Indigoniki]

I'm off on holiday but am tking my cj with me to do it there - is that very sad?!

N x

[JakkiiG]

I'm off on holiday but am tking my cj with me to do it there - is that very sad?! yea :lol:

(id do the same if I was going on my hols!)

Jakki, I think you are spot on right now oh! wonder why I have 2 more then? Have Marias and Nature (sorry cant remember whos that is LOL). Marias has been done today, can I post to you or not? go on you know you want it :lol:

[mafswife]

I posted (albeit a tad late) Debbie 70's CJ and AliTS CJ. Think I should be due another by now though and I've not received any?...

[weezie]

They've arrived. Thank you Ann. I'm just about to start one one of them once I get off the comp.

[Indigoniki]

I've posted All About Me off to JakkiG from sunny Norfolk.We bought the laptop to upload my photos and so the kids could play games but they've managed to tap into someones wireless network! This is the first time that I have been online all week so I'm doing really well!

Niki

[Elphaba]

I've passed on the My Retreat CJ to Liz :D

[Ria979902]

I posted (albeit a tad late) Debbie 70's CJ and AliTS CJ. Think I should be due another by now though and I've not received any?...


I haven't had any more to send you ann:) I received another 2 in the last few days so am on the case with those

does anyone know the next date for posting?? only the 7th of august cant be right as I only received the next one(s) to do a few days ago

[Elphaba]

I haven't had any more to send you ann:) I received another 2 in the last few days so am on the case with those

does anyone know the next date for posting?? only the 7th of august cant be right as I only received the next one(s) to do a few days ago


Liz Has posted to you early! She's ahead! Because as soon as I've finished I hand to her, that's why You've had 2 at a time some times :)

[mafswife]

I think one of them was due for posting on the 7th of August though - cos I have none.. not that I am complaining!! Just I am moving on the 24th and soon to be packing away my craft bits, mind you I can keep my doodling pens to hand!!

[JakkiiG]

Niki thanks for the CJ.......BUT can you hold off sending me anymore please as with this one I now have 3 again! I know it cant be helped with Sal dropping out but I dont want more back log. Thing is, it then means Ali will have them stacked, think we are way ahead....mind you I lost the plot after getting 2 at once :lol:.......hope you dont mind me saying.

[Ria979902]

I think one of them was due for posting on the 7th of August though - cos I have none.. not that I am complaining!! Just I am moving on the 24th and soon to be packing away my craft bits, mind you I can keep my doodling pens to hand!!

Ann I'll try and get atleast one of them done asap and posted to you,but it'll be next week I think, hope this is OK I'm completely thrown by getting 2 at once then none for a month,then 2 again,can't keep up but I am easily confused though;):lol:

[AliTS]

Hi everyone, I'm back from hols and as confused as everyone else!!

Please don't worry about posting dates. Having 2 people drop out has kind of put the schedule out of sync and that is why 2 often go round together. It's not ideal but as long as we keep track of what is where, that's fine with me - I want this to be fun not a chore and being pressured takes the fun out of it. I'm sure they will all get done in the end.

Please don't be discouraged or worry if you miss a posting date, just post on here to let us know what is happening and if you post or receive one, and let the muse take you whenever it does!!

I'll try to keep the list updated and if I fail, let me know.

Jakki - feel free to post on to me any time in the next week if you have completed ones. I'm hoping to send on Louise's this week.

[Ria979902]

managed to get the 2 musical cj's done last night so have posted to Ann this morning:)

[mafswife]

Fabby - thanks Maria

[Indigoniki]

I have the 2 that Weezie just sent to me.

Niki x

[AliTS]

Jackie (craftymum1971) are you free to be sent cjs atm? I have two I could send on if you are..... :)

JakkiG - I am away until 25th August so please could you not send anything until then. After that, you can send as many as you want - I'm quite happy to get ones, twos or threes!!! Whatever works for you hun. :)

[JakkiiG]

Oops too late :lol:

posted one today, sorry forgot I hadnt posted it and its been sat on my table all packed up for the last week :(

[Elphaba]

Hi Ali, Yes, I've been twiddling my thumbs for a while now!! :lol:

[AliTS]

That's fine JakkiG - I'm here for a few days yet!!!

Jackie - I'll post Weezie's and mafswifes tomorrow. - sorry you've been cj-less lately.

On another subject:

In Group 1 Ally's (yummymummy) CJ has gone missing. If anyone would like to contribute an entry for her as a gesture of goodwill, could you a double 6x6 page entry on the theme of 'All about you' that Ally can either make into a new book or paste into the old one if it turns up.

There is no compulsion to do this, so if you are busy please don't feel pressured. The deadline on this will be the final posting date of the cj. When you have done yours, please pm her for her address and post it off.
I just think it's such a shame that her cj has disappeared into the RM abyss, hopefully not forever but you never can tell and it's got all behind now.

[mafswife]

I have completed InspireSpirit's and JakkiG's CJ and will be posting off to Weezie tomorrow. No more to me at my current address please, am moving next week and can be sent CJs again after the bank holiday weekend!!

Mind you - I think I only have 2 left to do now :)

Just to let you know I received Maria's cj from Jakki today - it is lovely - I might take it on holiday with me if I can get my act together!

[Elphaba]

Passing Louise's Thought for the day to Liz tonight :)

[mafswife]

I have completed InspireSpirit's and JakkiG's CJ and will be posting off to Weezie tomorrow. No more to me at my current address please, am moving next week and can be sent CJs again after the bank holiday weekend!!

Mind you - I think I only have 2 left to do now :)
Am far from ready for more CJs (why do I have so many scrapping boxes to unpack ;) ).. but I have moved and can be sent them as and when now!!

[AliTS]

I have received Liz's from JakkiG this morning - another stunner. I'm afraid I'm going to be slow at the moment, sorry Jackie, as I'm snowed under with work but I will try to get one off to you as soon as I can - sorry :(

[Indigoniki]

I shall be late too. I'm having a scrapping day with a friend today so they should be in the post Thursday at the latest.

Niki

[weezie]

Niki, i've got two ready to post to you. Would you like me to send them tomorrow or would you rather that I hold on to them?

[AliTS]

I've finally done Maria's and can post to you in the next couple of days Jackie if that is OK with you.

Hopefully I'll get round to the next one next weekend. I'm not sure if I'm behind or up to date!

[Elphaba]

Morning Ali,

[weezie]

Sorry Niki the cjs are still with me. I'm going to the PO this morning.

[Ria979902]

sorry Ali i guess it would help if i'd said!!!!!doh!!!!

I have Niki's my retreat,mafswife colour my world & louises thought of the day.

I'm assuming I do Anns (mafswife) and send it to her last after I've done the other 2 as that should be the end of the cj (as I post to her) if that makes any sense at all???-sorry but just dosed up on painkillers so everythings a bit fuzzy:(

[mafswife]

Sounds right to me Maria - (ALthough of course I would love mine tomorrow!!!) if you want to do one at a time and post them when done that would be great for me!!

[Ria979902]

Sounds right to me Maria - (ALthough of course I would love mine tomorrow!!!) if you want to do one at a time and post them when done that would be great for me!!That'll be great with me too:) will get one done this week and posted off as soon as I can:)

[mafswife]

No hurry on my part Maria, when you are able :)

[AliTS]

Jackie, I posted yesterday 1st class RD- you should have it soon!

[JakkiiG]

Ive completed 5, so the 3 im in now (including the new one) will take it to 8 in total :D

[weezie]

I'm really looking forward to seeing mine. The ones I've seen so far have been gorgeous.

[Ria979902]

[AliTS]

I have it down as you and Liz not having had them yet. Jackie and Liz, do you still have Liz's and Maria's cjs? The last posting date is 30th (Monday) but everyone has been early, so you aren't late so to speak!!

Please would one person do a rating for me once they are all home, and I will do likewise for you all.

[Elphaba]

Liz has had her CJ back,
Not sure if she has posted Maria's back! I know she's done the entry, I've seen it!! :D

[AliTS]

Thanks Jackie. Liz, please could you confirm when it is posted please. :)

[lizh]

Sorry I forgot to say - too busy doing decorating at home -chaos etc. Yes I posted Maria's lovely CJ on Wednesday so it should arrive any day now.

[AliTS]

Fantastic - thanks Liz. Maria, start stalking the postman, your cj was gorgeous when I saw it, I'm sure it's even more so now. Let me know when it arrives and that completes the round. Thanks so much everyone.

[Ria979902]

Nothing today:( maybe tomorrow really looking forward to seeing it again:)

[AliTS]

Fingers crossed for tomorrow Maria - gorgeous avatar, you must be dead chuffed with that photo :)

[Ria979902]

Morning all I finally received my cj back last night, a neighbour found it in his coal bunker with another parcel for me,so goodness knows how long it had been there for as it was posted on the 24th:( I know we had a temporary postman cause ours was ill but you'd have thought he'd find me ok everyone else seems too, but anyway its gorgeous THANKYOU VERY VERY MUCH:D

[AliTS]

Goodness! It's a good thing the coal bunker didn't leak or get another delivery or something!! Glad you got it back.

I think everyone has it back now. I'll leave ratings for you very soon, please would ONE of you rate me.
