I woke up this morning to find an unexpected message from discoverylover (unexpected because I thought the voting would not be over until tonight) saying that I'd won the vote for representing the Dutch Convention Team at the BookCrossing Convention in Christchurch next April !!! *deep breath*
And now I'm bouncing around the room because I can't believe that I'm actuallly going and I have no one else to tell. So that's why I'm posting here.
*boing boing boing boing boing*
*makes nice calming cup of tea*

Okay, the next thing to do is fundraising. Because I'd really, really like to see if we can raise enough money to send aka_phoenix over there as well. I know she wants to go as badly as I do.
So here goes: www.bcx.bounce.com.au
There's a Donation page in the The Second Adventure submenu. It has PayPal.
Any and all donations, no matter how small (they start at 2 kiwidollars, which is close to 1 yankeedollar or 1 cloggydollar) are very, very welcome. Thank you!
