Hi ladies!!:flowers:Sorry that my pm box was full.:shame:Many apologies:shame:I have emptied it and am ready for you!!:PI can't wait to start ROAK:rochard:

Please PM Julide with the following info
TPF name
TPF posts number and time on TPF
Your actual name and address (or if uncomfortable with this you can do so through personal email)
your email address
Willingness to have a RAOK buddy outside of the USA or Desire to have an outside of USA RAOK Buddy
Willingness to be a rescue RAOK buddy for someone who needs one because their buddy doesn't come through (which we hope does not happen,but life happens so we'd like this in place as well;))
 
Okay, everyone! Here are questions for you to think about (and then PM your responses to Julide):

Hermes RAOK 2010 Questionnaire

Are you willing to take on an International Buddy?


What are your favorite shopping websites?
What are your favorite stores?
Do you have any food allergies?
Name 3 favorite Snacks/Candy/chocolates?
What is your favorite restaurant?
What is your favorite chain/ fast food place?
What is your favorite Perfume?
What is your favorite Candle?
What is your favorite Color?
Do you have Children or Dogs/Cats? If so, can a gift be included for them too?
Is it ok for your buddy to send chocolates/candy and/or flowers?
Do you collect any item in particular? (e.g., spoons, stamps)
Is there anything in particular that you dislike?
What is the month and day of your birthday?
Any additional information you would like your buddy to know….??? :confused1:

It’s the thought that counts, right? We don’t want someone getting peanut butter cookies and it turns out that they are highly allergic to them.

:yahoo::yahoo::yahoo: Get ready, set, go!
