Looking forward to this mission. Just a note to anyone who gets my name - I have lots of coins, don't be frightened away by that. Anything duplicate is welcomed, as I release lots into the travelling cache world. What fun this could be. An exchange mission.

Email Sent! Thanks - will get back to after my dentist appt.... Home in about 5 hours...

Now that was MEAN Get all the way through. Put in billing and delivery and then told to go away, I hate sites that are NOT international-friendly. It smacks of "only US citizens are good enough for us" attitude that we thought we left back in the nineties... So, what international dealers have these???

Thank you for ALL the interest in the 2008 Kiwi geocoins. I have now completed trading these.

Email sent about your original mission...

Oops - I'm now pretty sure this wasn't the santa's mission - it was a gift from the Atwells for a different reason so uncheck the box Butterfly Lady please... Thanks to the Atwells nonetheless for 3 marvelous coins, especially for the black metal March of the Penguin coin! Still, it made my day and I now feel some form of completion from the Santa's mission, regardless! [Edit: I'm now confused - perhaps it was the santa's mission after all - I'd forgotten the coins were Christmas wrapped which is why I thought it was the santa's mission in the first place...] [Edit 2: I now understand. This was the replacement santa mission (thanks again, Atwells for taking up the slack with your marvelous choice of coins!) I've now been contacted by the original secret santa whose parcel that was originally destined for me is now seemingly completely lost the post. I don't know what the original parcel contained but a Goldie Eclectic Penguin coin will go back to them too once a return address is supplied in gratitude for the original commitment and to compensate for the disappointment of not seeing their package arrive on my end. personal email already sent] Completion of mind now at least for the Santa Mission for me finally, even if it wasn't the way we originally hoped! Yes, Attwells imitate Elves.... It was a replacement Santa mission.

I have about 100 coins in the wild - about 10% have gone missing. 90% pass mark is good.

Great to see a couple of the elves at work. We are all grateful to see missions being complete. I'll update the outstanding delivery list soon. So hot here - up to 34 most days..... That's 93 in old speak.

1. Participating - email sent 24 Jan 2. Received Name - 3. Mission Complete - 4. Cupid Arrived -

I've received confirmation that my outgoing mission has arrived safely. About 10 days postal travelling time. It can happen - NZ to US.

I know there are still some busy elves out there. Shhh..... well, actually, we would like to hear of any arrivals.

Name: Rockon Tip: Always carry a disposable bag for the doodahs! (now that could be diapers or doggie droppings.

As promised (though maybe a bit late) I have some 2008 Kiwi geocoins available.... I'm limiting it to ONE per trade at the moment. Simply because I want to save some for upcoming missions. I'm asking for offers..... My seeking list is mainly older, harder to find geocoins, so feel free to offer others. Please do not be offended if I turn you down. I'd really like to encourage newbies for trading where possible. Some ideas for trade. (trackable only please) European geocoins. Any that I missed due to recent exchange rate changes - US late 2008 releases. Any turtles, penguins. NOT coin club please. Animals, bugs particularly welcomed.

List shrunk by one more....

still hoping to hear more missions have arrived... The following are currently listed as not yet received.... Belfrypotters - From US Jan and the Percey Boys - From US PassingWind - From US rivercity - From Canada rodz - From US - sender is keen to hear that it has arrived. Sabri.Suh - From the UK Six Little Spookies - From The UK Striphe - The US Striphe - From down under. ThirstyMick - From US Wutzebear - From the UK Wutzebear - From US

Additional edition with gum stuck to it!

All - the fun of putting a mission gift together! I had lots of fun finding bird related items - The tui is a special song bird in NZ. The Takahe on the note pad s an endangered bird - only 212 known birds (& I've seen about 10% of them) Then the fun of getting all those little cards and personalising them with caching stuff. Thanks for sharing. Great receipents make a great mission!

Oh, is this a hint???? Congrats - sounds like it went to schedule. How all is well, and that the precious new addition is well received by the other froglets. Or is that tadpoles.

Thanks - I tried to catch all the posts - but did missed a couple. The list shrinks every day, so there is still hope for those outstanding missions. Cheesy Pigs, and Dressel dragons have had their wait rewarded. So might the others.

Signed up: Yes Received Name: Yes Sent Package: Yesterday, finally. Should be there by the end of the month. Received Package: Many thanks to '57 Chevy for the personalised mission.

Update - 13 January. There are some on the list, that I feel may just not have checked into the mission forum.

YABBA DABBA DOO

This one was rcd on Dec 8 Thanks - I missed that one.

What's a Chia Pet? Can't send you one , it has seeds !! Ah - a modern take on the old wheatsack head. Just takes away part of the do it yourself aspect for kids. I guess they must be the rage in the US this year... might get here next.... but with seeds in them, might not make it into the country. Thanks for the thought of sending one - I've got plenty of weeds in the garden that I see growing already! Needing my attention!
