Does anyone have access to big cardboard boxes?
I thought I could get some from work but they don't have anything right now.
We need to get some collection boxes to the '50s dinner right away.
Post up and I'll come and collect them from you.

never mind, I got some. :)

If you need any more, I do have a few medium sized boxes here in my cave that can be used
 
I had to take two more boxes to the '50s last night. The first two boxes are almost full!

At my company, it looks maybe 8 - 10 toys in the bins. Kinda dissapointing. I sent a reminder e-mail to all employees yesterday. Hopefully that will help.

Karen asked me to print out some more handouts for her to take to the neighbors.

How are you all doing?
 
I'd like to send a box of random johnny lightning cars that I have. Let me know where to send them to.
 
My wife and I will be out of town this year during the toy drive. It is our aniversiry of why not to drive a fiat. We would like to donate some toys. Who could I deliver toys to? Thanks.
