I was hoping to get this started today but I seem to have worn myself out with the monster mash BOM. Do we have a cross-eyed emoji anywhere?!?!?!  8)

Nit picking I know, but bi-annual means twice a year!

I think you mean the second annual autumn mug rug swap.

I think @Iminei  means bi-annual because of the spring equinox making it two mug rug swaps a year. :)

Not going to have time for this, sadly. I know it doesn't take long - apart from the planning which is about a three-week job  :o - but I have three BOMs to do after my holiday next week and Estate Agent photos to tidy up (again) for.

I'd love to but A) who are we kidding time wise for me and 2) my single post office for 120,000 people  :scream: is a death trap. Lines have always extended to the door or nearly so . It's layout is horrific for social distancing. You have 2 points that are like going through the spout of a funnel, slowly, like you're molasses on a cold day. Too dangerous.
Hey Bill! Read the manual!  Hehehe.

I think I'm in, but will confirm later.  I do have a big report to write...
I might look as though I'm talking to you, but inside my head I'm sewing.

Ah but do you @UttaRetch? Mine only occasionally have mugs set on them. Mostly they have phones, specs, remotes, emery boards, tweezers, pencils... everything that needs to be kept to hand but not scattered willy nilly all over the table.  0_0

@wrenkins, I prefer surfaces that can be wiped clean.  A mug rug looks pretty, but mine would be purely decorative.  :D
