    Cards for Hayley !!!!

    Folks, I've been discussing a plan conceived by one of our members, Tom Leaf (ID-phototeach). Tom has proposed to personally deliver, on behalf of the forum, greeting cards to Hayley when he visits the UK in July for some of her concerts. We went with cards because Hayley cannot accept gifts due to the possibility of problems and the huge numbers of gifts that she already receives. She does cherish cards from people who donate to her many charities, although that's not a requirement. We want lots of cards !!

    Tom is asking for cards with a max size of 5x7(12.7cmX17.7cm) in an unsealed envelope, inside of a sealed envelope. All must have return addresses, and, if you wish, your email address. They cannot have sound chips of any kind as Tom as to get them through customs. The message should be short and, hopefully you understand, must be reviewed for appropriate content at our discretion. We obviously want all cards to get to Hayley.

    The cutoff date is 20 July 2009 as Tom is leaving on the 23rd.

    Please mail them to:
    Hayley Cards
    C/o Thomas Leaf
    PO box 757
    Owosso, Michigan
    48867-0757 ......USA

    .......and many thanx to Tom for this great idea !!!!

    Bob

    Thanks Tom! That is a very good idea.

    I would like to participate. But I'll have to see if I have time cause I've got exams coming up...but then again that's always the best time to procrastinateBig Smile

    I'm from Auckland, Belinda.

    Yeah that's a good point! So does she nearly always do signings after her concerts?

    I think the Auckland concert is going to be at the Town Hall, as per the postponed venues...are you coming up for that one? (I think you are from CHCH?)

    Re: Cards for Hayley !!!!

     BTW .......I do want to emphisize that ANYONE is welcome to send Tom a card. This is not just a US based activity.

    I would love to see a card from Jono (despite his admitted inclination to procrastinate ....Stick out tongue) .....a card delivered from the US from someone in NZ ...? .......that's cool !!

    And the UK of course, maybe someone who is at the same concert ......they can deliver two cards that way ....Yes.

    Can you tell that I'm trying to keep this up front where people can find it easier?

    Re: Cards for Hayley !!!!

    Yes, that's a good thing. On other forums, they call that "bumping". A forum I used to be on they would simply say "bump" in their message, but I think it's better to find something more intelligent to say than that. Stick out tongue

     Actually this one, somehow, got pinned (stickied) ......I'm not sure how, so it should stays at the top of the Board ......but, a reminder post is still a good idea occasionally.

    Bob, Just wondering if it is absolutely necessary to include a return address? It would not be a problem at all for me, but I would suggest that some people might be put off by this, because of safety/ privacy issues...especially considering the cards are going to be "reviewed for content".

    Would it be ok for some people to not include a return address, and maybe just an email, or nothing?

    Jono, let me check with Tom on this one ......off hand, I can't recall why we decided that return addresses were necessary.

    Its a good point though ...
