I am wondering

if we maybe need to look at a change re; the Blog site -
It was originally started as a huge part of the Christmas Swap, so we could post photos of our trees / decorations etc, to thank each other, comment on gifts and generally have this lovely interaction , particularly as some of us are strangers to each other.
This year I cannot help but think we may need a re-vamp, a new look or something different as there are so few of us participating.
It seems a shame, as it is so easy to log in and post a comment or whatever, but I cannot help feel that the commitment to post daily for each group for little or no interest is maybe an indication that we have come to the end - I would so value input, and suggestions.

It would be a shame to stop it but it's a shame it's not being used. Personally I think it is a lovely forum to be able to acknowledge and thank the person who crafted the gift you opened on that day - at the very least anyway -

I love the idea of the blog. It makes the christmas swap all the more exciting. I love being able to see what the other groups are receiving eah day. I am guilty of not posting as much as I should but I don't think that the blog should be shut down/ turned off.

I would be so sorry to see the end of the blog postings. I eagerly look for them every day not only to get a peep at the interesting pressies that the other group get, but also to see the variations in the presents that my group receives, the colors and designs can vary a little and these are all good to see. I am disappointed not to have more comments to read though, and am sorry for the two girls, Liz and Julie, who are putting so much of their busy time into making the blog for us all to enjoy.
Come on girls, let's hear from you!
At this point I would like to thank Julie and Liz and the 3 girls in Nelson, Wendy, Miranda and Hazel, who make all this fun possible. THANK YOU!!

I think we should stick with it Liz. Last year I didn't get a chance to contribute, this year I have been able to. Different things going on in life. Don't give up on it! Debbie
