*The* Gift-It-On Thread

[bearpark]

Anyone fancy a Mammut chalk bag, never used with chalk?

 

[woodstock]

I think we are waiting for someone to either change their offer or for someone to accept it bearpark, but it is kind of you to try to get the thread up and running again.

Guys if that was directed at myself you have my apologies if they will be accepted for the delay. not the best of excuses but have had a pump time at home of late including a bereavement in the family. Louis have pm you mate and once again all please accept my deepest apologies for the delay

I think a lot have left this thread because what started as a bit of fun has turned into too quite an aggressive situation to find yourself in. Far too much community pressure to want to get involved in - way too many people posting issue with no one taking the FREE item instantly and demanding something else be put up.

no one wants to be in the hot seat themselves if they did say yes.

 

[Macaroon]

No mate, it wasn't directed at any individual; it seems to be a general malaise at the moment! I've been waiting four weeks for one item and a bit longer for another, not the end of the world, I know, but not in the soirit of the thread, either!

Sorry for your trouble skog, and I hope things resolve themselves well for you

Why not take the wooden scales and then put the chalkbag up bearpark
I've done similar to get the thread moving again

Good thinking Kev

If only I was close to being competent at any type of craft!

Practice is all you need we all start somewhere

 

[tent peg]

I trust nobody is waiting for anything from me?

How about some knife handle blanks...I'm unsure what they are, but it's good and hard, and has a nice grain/colour.

Right, let's try and get things moving.

Spaniel man I'll take the wooden scale blanks please I'll pm you my address.

I will offer a splash proof plastic case with rubber seal and snap closure. Ideal for some fire lighting bits or anything else you want to keep dry.

Cheers

Jon

Good man!..........

@ Spanielman: No book after two months or so, and no reply to two PM's...................

@ DaveBromley: Still no farrier's loop knife mate...................

It's a great shame, but I don't think I'll be partaking of this thread any more.

 

[Macaroon]

Sorry, duplicate post.

 

[Corso]

this threads spent IMO, as a giver I'd be upset I sent something to someone who went AWOL far more than if the something I bagged didn't turn up - that's just plain wrong

Still a brill idea. Shame some people and the post office make mistakes
101 pages and it's spent? I reckon not IMHO

 

[uncleboob]

I've been left hanging a couple of times and have to confess to not always getting to the post office the next day to send parcels but overall it's a great thing. Maybe those that fail to send things on should be banned from further participation? Maybe it could be restricted to full members? Seems a shame to lose something good because a few take liberties.

I've not had a reply from Spaniel man yet, but according to his profile he hasn't been online since the end of last month.

I'm still happy to offer the plastic splash proof case.

I think if something fails to turn up you've just got to accept that people's lives sometimes get in the way and think to yourselves, "well, thats a few more karma points earned". What goes around comes around. You've done someone a good deed by giving something, sooner or later that kindness will be payed back to you, whether on here or elsewhere.

This is a great thread, let it live on!
