    Good morning,

    Here are the numbers for today.

    As of 10:00 am on Tue. the 15th of Apr. we have a confirmed 100 badges ordered. This includes the 9 for the moderators.

    67 people have placed orders
    I have sent out invoices to to all but 2. Steve53 and Emolas, you will get yours today.
    54 people have paid.

    I got a note from Gaelic Themes today. They say that they have completed the master and will now start making the mold. I would estimate that we are 5 weeks from the badges being mailed from Scotland.

    I wear the kilt because:
    Swish + Swagger = Swoon.

    WooHoo!!

    Now, are they getting mailed to you and then back to the people who have ordered them of am I going to be lucky and get mine sent from Scotland to me?
    (I'm assuming they'll go out to you first, but I can dream.)

    Thanks again for all of the hard work, Steve.

    Yes Arlen, I'm afraid that the badges will be mailed from Scotland to me in Canada and then all the way back to you.
    Silly I know but Gaelic Themes is not responsible for getting the badges to each member, I am.
    Hey, just think of it this way, we are keeping the postal system oiled and running smoothly. Can't have our public servants just sitting around with nothing to do.

    Well,at least Arlen's and Hamish's badges could probably claim to be the "most travelled" of the hundred.

    Well, I think with something as good as this I can bear to wait the extra few days.

    Arlen;
    for your sake I am hoping that it will be a shorter mailing by then, only to Idaho instead of all the way back to Glasgow

    Arlen,

    Might it not be better for you to have them mailed to Idaho? I am thinking that delivery would more secure that way, and you get to avoid the chance of any import(!!) duties.

    Think of how it will feel to have TWO wonderful things waiting for you there!
