[Gpdd] [SILLY] <the Pig Olympigs>

Wed Mar 7 07:18:21 EST 2007

HI all,

Well i'd say we can start signing up. Everyone send me what sports your
piggies are pigticipating in and I'll put them on the list.
I will post the list with participant on the gpdd weekly or something like
that. How about that?
Ow, I did not try for the online votting thing yet, but that's a good task
for today!

So Let me know which sports the piggies are participating in, and If I don't
figure out how to make an online poll, i will let you know and you can mail
me your favorite city.

Who remembers what the date for the pigolympigs was?

You can see the list of piggie sports in Janneke's post, and also on our
website:
http://winkysgirls.hyves.nl

I hope to get lots of mails and let you know about the poll. (hmm maybe we
could also automate the sign up for the sports... I try that too today...
keep you posted!)

btw, thanks for the congratulations for Lotje's 3rd adoption day, they just
seem to get big so fast (wipes away a tear of joy)
Glynis I really loved your congratulation, I could just imagine you and Duke
singing for Lotje! Please tell Duke my girls told me to tell him to start
eating real well and try to get better. The Girls want to meet that handsome
boar that sent them all those gifties!
