I do. Love reading mystery novels and participating in mystery quilts etc. But at the moment I have the biggest mystery of all to solve. Scquilters, which is an on-line group of Aussie quilters have an annual retreat and part of the activities is an Angel/Mortal swap. This involves being an 'Angel' to another Scquilter and then being someone else's 'Mortal'. All very secret and devious! You send a parcel each month for 3 months before the Retreat (this year at the end of June) and then having 3 more to be given out at the retreat. You also have a special parcel to give to your 'Angel' as a thank you.
Apart from trying very hard to not reveal yourself before the 'Big Reveal' at retreat, like posting from a different PO than near where you live, to using various friend to post for you etc etc and using a 'non de plume' email address, the lengths that some go to are extrordinary.
Well, so far the parcels I have received have come from 3 different addresses in the USA!!! How did my Angel do this? Was she away when posting, then if so, she must have been away for 3 months! Does she know someone who lives over there - but then she would have had to send them over first, and then have them sent back! Not only are the return addresses from different people - they are also from different States. This has me truly baffled.
Any help to solve this or do I have to wait another 4 weeks for the reveal at Retreat? The retreat this year is in Townsville, north Queensland, a lot warmer at the moment than down here in Victoria.
Will keep you informed as to any more clues etc..

Joy, this has to be exciting with happies coming from who knows where! Kind of like a kid waiting for Christmas. Have fun at your retreat.
