Rosina, I didn't receive anything either.

I guess when you join a project like this, you have to rely on everyone to keep their promise.. It saddens me that some haven't been able to do that.

Sorry about that, i was in contact with your santa Rosinakiwi and they were having financial trouble, then again, everyone does after christmas - they promised they would send it but i guess not.

It looks like we have learnt alot of lessons.

For the project to work in theory and the idea to stick, there were bound to be some problems.

Some of the factors that came into it were as follows:

1) My total lack of organisation - (see point 8 also)

2) My illness and break from the mfc in January

3) Labeling of packages (atleast 2 to my knowledge ended up being sent back to the return address since the destination address was not clear enough)

4) Return addresses - Several people confessed to me AFTER sending that they forgot to include return addresses, i know 1 of these items did not arrive at it's destination.

5) Financial problems - i think alot of us underestimated the cost of sending items and buying them, depending on how mad we went.

6) Christmas closures - Several parcels did not make it to their destinations in time. I realise most people did check their local closing dates, however some failed to check the closing dates at their parcel's destination and therefore they arrived late.

7) Good will - the problem with this project is that it relies on the good will of their santa's to actually go through with the project. That and the good will of those at the post offices not stealing items - there is a HUGE problem with that in some countries.

8) People dropping out or changing - Several people left the project or changed their destination, this caused problems with the plan.

 

All in all it seems the fact that the project didn't work for some, has taken over the fact that it did for others.

For those who DO wish to take part again this year, it looks like alot of changes will have to be made to the plan and i will be taking a lot more care as to how much attention i keep on each package and will be requesting (like with the travelling bear project) that everyone tells me when each parcel is sent or recieved at the time, not afterwards.

 

Appologies once again for those of you who did not recieve parcels.
