| WhimzyKat | Natasha17 | "I want to publicly thank whimzycat for doing a huge RABCK for my mom who is one of the many displaced New Orleans residents. Whimzycat left a wonderful surprise care package at my mom's hotel near Dallas. Mom says she wished she could have been there to meet you, but she understood when I told her about the crying factor for in person meetings right now. ;-) She cried herself just getting your package. Mom also said that having often been a night worker herself she knows that you sacrificed some of your sleep time to help her and knows what that means for you. Also, apparently I was wrong when I said that she had a book. She already finished hers and needed another one. She hasn't read the one you gave her but is really looking forward to doing so now. She said she needs the escape right now. Whimzycat, I'm sending you a big hug and many thanks for giving my mom a little cheer right now. :-)" -Natasha17- |
| LoveTeaAndBooks | Inver | "I got a parcel this morning with THREE books in it...yippee!!!
We had arranged a trade of books and hers to me arrived today with a lovely bookstring enclosed. Was very generous of her. She spotted my request
on Wish List and kindly offered a trade and it was done very quickly. Hoping she enjoys my books too when she gets them. Thank you so much LoveTeaAndBooks....so looking forward to reading the quilting stories...was a lovely surprise for a boring and not very sunny Monday morning." -Inver- |
| KimKerry | Boreal | "I would like to nominate KimKerry for the RABCK roundup. I am helping
organise our NZ bookcrossing convention next year and Kim (who is coming to
the convention by the way) sent us a large bookcrossing store gift voucher
to buy goodies for the convention goodie bags. We are overwhelmed by her
generosity! I know the rest of the committee, Rarsberry and KiwiJan join me in thanking Kim." -Boreal- |
| Koekiebak | Owlet | "Koekiebak gave me a BRAND-NEW copy of a hilarious cookbook for "liberated women" as a totally unexpected RABCK, because she knows how much I like cooking. It's a wonderful book, very funny and with some nice recipies to boot. So THANK YOU, Koekiebak!" -Owlet- |
| Bluenoser | Owlet | "Bluenoser, who not only is my own personal provider of ABC-books by Sue Grafton, also very recently sent me a surprise package with a lot of wonderful baby presents for the little owlet I'm expecting! I was absolutely amazed to receive such gifts from someone I have never met face-to-face, but mustn't forget that BC-virtual contact of course is different then any other kind of contact! So THANK YOU, Bluenoser, you can't imagine how much I appreciate it, I'll have to nominate you to the RABCK round-ups on a permanent basis!" -Owlet- |
| 1972Galadriel | Owlet | "1972Galadriel, offered some bottles of sauce and other food stuff on the Dutch forum that she wouldn't use. I accepted it, and along with those things, she unexpectingly sent me two (!) books, one of my wish list and the other one, because she knows I like to read mysteries and thrillers. So THANK YOU, 1972Galadriel!" -Owlet- |
| Shadie | Libertine101 | "I would like to nominate Shadie. She sent me a mixed CD she put together for me, of good, solid angry music to help me vent some emotions after my break up with my partner. I am greatly enjoying the CD but also want it noted that the note she enclosed with it made me laugh. :) Thanks Shadie!!" -Libertine101' |
