I will leave the questions in so that senders will know about them but will NOT try to match using them, how does that sound? Like a good compromise?

OK, I can understand Arizona being online now, Lori - you're supposed to be resting up from doing names, but why aren't all of us on Eastern time sleeping?

Sounds good to me. Don't make yourself crazy. Maybe a line before the questions, like "please be aware that some people suffer from allergies. No scents, nuts, etc., unless asked for."

Yeah because both Shane and I have severe allergies to all nuts.

Great compromise; the responsibility (for allergies) goes to the swap partner that receives the info. Putting "Nuts" in the "Allergies" question would alert the Pal not to send any. Easy peasy.

Lori, I do hope that you are better today. We cannot do without the Queen of the Swaps.

Allergies, leave it in the questionnaire we fill in, but surely the person doing the swapping is going to do their all to make sure their gift is going to suit the receiver? If some one says no nuts, then I would work overtime to make sure no nuts are in it. Likewise with scents. Or am I being dim????

Drop the "Allergies"! Drop the "Allergens"!
Cats and Dogs, Goats and Frogs,
We can make do, We can get through
Smells and Smoking, Candles and Croakin'...
Drop it Lori, Drop it! Three cheers for you Lori! :thumbup: (waving pom-poms madly!)

(um, where's my drum section? :oops: )

Here is your drum my friend >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> three cheers for Lori is right. Lori, I second Soniboo, don't try to match based on that, itis good to have it there so pal's are aware of possible allergies their pal may have and thus send them a package accordingly, but it a lot of work for you to try to match all these names up looking at these lines, nobody expects that from you. So match'em up the old way and let us go shopping, lol!!
