Hello Swappers!!! It's been quite a while since my last post. I hope you are all well and staying healthy. I was hoping my next post would include some positive news re when we could hope to come together and Swap again, however as we try to adapt to the new normal it's not looking very positive at all. ... With the current health guidelines holding Swaps as we have done in the past looks a long way off:( If anyone has any ideas as we move forward I would like to hear them. I have considered various options but have yet to feel good about one. In the meantime I have a lot of great clothes in my garage, that have been sitting there for 4 months , so quite safe!, if anyone is interested or knows of anyone in need. Take care all , I hope to see you all again one day Sue

Hi everyone! I hope you are all surviving these crazy times !! No doubt you've been sorting out your closets and have lots of awesome clothes for our next Swaps!... Because when the time comes we're going to PARTY!!!!! Take care!
