Hi Gemma. I'm really sorry to contact you like this but I can't find your email and I can't find your application/address. I know you sent it in because I added you to the swap blog, but I honestly cannot find it. Would you be able to do me a HUGE favour and email it again to ukswap@hotmail.co.uk?? Thanks so much!!! I was double checking the list, and my Feed Reader... and going "something doesn't add up"...

Hello Gemma,
it's me, your secret pal, again.
Hope you got my ecard alright, and have started a nice week!

I wanted to know whether there is a dream holiday you always wanted to take?
