Hey All,
As much as I would love to participate, I am sorry to say I am ineligible for next years swap,
I had two partners in this years Aus Day Swap and I am one of those guys that no one wants to be.
It wasn't untill I seen a post on Facebook by MKYPenturner, and I came here to register that realised that I still hadn't completed one of my swaps, I wass partnered with Michigan Mike and I recieved his parcel and I didn't open it as I still had to finish my pen for him. I won't go into details but I had kit troubles and family issues to take care of and I had forgotten all about the pen, I then remembered and finished the pen off and packed it up ready for posting, more family issues came up and again the parcel got forgotten.
Jump forward to this weekend,
I have since been in touch with Mike to re confirm his postal details and his parcel will be in the mail Monday Morning. And I am hoping against the odds that he might receive it before Xmas and get a nice little surprise,
I have now opened his parcel which I had also put aside and also for gotten about and I am truly pleased with what he has sent me.
So as much as I would like to enter again I fear I have broken the rules by not completing the swap appropriately and I apologise again to Mike, and also everyone else involved in the swap.
good luck to all who will participating in the new year,
regards Ben

I was Ben's swap partner and I don't have any reason to stop him from being in this years swap. I know there are rules but Ben contacted
me and explained and I accepted his apologizes.
To publicly and personally apologize shows just how bad Ben felt.
I know that sometimes life gets in the way of our hobby.
Anyway I'm looking forward to a unexpected Christmas present.
Merry Christmas
Mike
This rule states
Members who did not completed their swap last year are not eligible to swap this year and any other subsequent years. If you know of anyone who has not completed their swap with you last year or previous years, could you please contact me via PM.
And by going by what Beedeejay(Ben) has stated has is going to complete last years swap. I think in this case it would be fine for Ben to participate in the swap. What I require is for Beedeejay to reply accordingly within this thread.
