But the cases were just shipped a day or two ago! For all we know, Artbox has staggered the shipping and some orders may not even have gone out yet. |

It always seems like someone gets there cases a day or two before everyone else. I remember when star wars heritage came out there were a couple people who had cards listed on ebay 2 days before the release date, just hoping we get to see a few of the cards! Even if it isn't a shacker.

I can't wait to see the cards, too. I think MPC was the first person to get update card and put up auctions. Well, we'll just have to keep checking the Shack and eBay!  It's going to be a lonnnnnng weekend. Ooops, apparently it's going to be a long week, now that Anna's post in the SS section confirms that cases will be shipped today, Monday and Tuesday. |

I'm back, and I found some barnacles, though none named Billy Had a nice time, did heaps of driving (over 1000kms), got a bit wet and a bit cold, and am now safe at home, in my pjs and about to feast on pumpkin soup and irish cream fudge... |

Soup and fudge?? Not together! My mum made pumpkin soup for tea, and then I ate some fudge that I bought while I was on my trip. I drove for about 5 hours yesterday, so it was a nice sugar hit |

This is the best thing about field trips, especially marine ones although I don't know exactly where/how you carried out your trip... after days of tramping around everywhere and all the hard work there's nothing better than a good soup and some sweeties and then a relax watching a good film all curled up on the sofa... and really feeling like you deserve the rest too! Awesome work! |

All I did was drive around to heaps of beaches along the Victorian coast during low tide, trying to find barnacles...took me two days to find any! |

Yet again I am off on another trip (about the 10th one this year). Ill be away a lot longer this time, about 10ish days. Im heading up through the middle of NSW, then across to the coast, then visiting a different beach every day to collect more barnacles. I prob wont have a lot of internet access while Im away, but I will try to check in when I get the chance (ill have my laptop with me). Hope every one had a great christmas, all the best for the new year, and ill see you in just under two weeks. |

Ok, checking in very briefly. Its early morning new years eve, and im currently in Port Macquarie which is a fair way north of Sydney (I live In Melbourne which is an 8-10 hour drive from Sydney). Its been hot, with a couple of days around 38degrees when I was in Dubbo and Tamworth (home of country music). Ive got lovely sunburn...strange patches on my back, and burnt achilles  Having a good time though..started collecting samples yesterday, found the hugest barnacle (about 4cm tall), but managed to remove part of a fingernail in the process of prising it off the rock...its very hard to type when you cant use one of your index fingers. Happy new year to everyone. Hopefully I can check in again in a few days. Kate |

Made it back to the internet again! Im at a motel with a casino and several restaurants, most of which are closed. Not the best day to be doing fieldwork on the beach. 45+ degrees (which im told is over 100 F), and I was on the beach in the fall sun, lots of sun, and not a chance to actually go in the water. It was quite horrible, and im glad its over, only 3 to 4 more days to go, then i get to go home sweet home |
