I've not tried Book crossing so wouldn't know, but I joined last June I think and use it frequently. It's easy to use and convenient if you don't want to use all the forums etc, as they're on a separate section of the website. http://www.bookmooch.com/ is the site if you want to have a look. smiley - smiley

I couldn't easily contribute, I haven't got the right equipment and there're only 7 weeks until the baby's due

I've got a digital camera, but not a recorder so I can't make clips. I suppose I could write stuff, but I find it hard to do that when I have to keep stopping and starting.

Doesn't it just? Suddenly Milly's two and the new baby's very close to making an appearance.

Maybe you could get one from freecycle.

smiley - yikes

Do you know whether it will be a brother or sister to Milly yet?

Now I'm confused how many points do you need to have to obtain a book smiley - erm

I might get one eventually, but I think I'll wait until I've got some sort of routine sorted with the baby.

It will be one or the other, I had the chance to find out but I decided to wait. We bought neutral baby stuff anyway as we didn't know what gender Milly was. It took about half an hour after she was born to get used to referring to her as 'she', though it had been an awfully long time since we last had any sleep smiley - laugh

You need one point for a book in the UK, 2 points for anywhere else in the world (though some users will only send books to their own country)

I just joined freecycle, will have a look at what it offers. I do have some stuff I can't give to charity shops because they're electrical goods that I don't want to throw away as they still work fine smiley - biggrin
