Please know that Postcrossers are given priority to sit at the reserved table. I am unable to accommodate any plus ones/ friends/ family (unless there’s room); I suggest calling More Sugar (restaurant) for your own reservations as needed. Thank you for understanding!

@Dar , @thatheavyheart , @ileanatr I haved added you three to the list :slight_smile:

@ileanatr , it’s a notebook dedicated to meetups. Meetup participants can write on each other’s notebook and stamp/sign it (kinda like a guest book at a wedding!).

You can write about whatever

  • your name, Postcrossing ID or stamp, address (if you are comfortable sharing), or a fun fact about yourself

Here’s an example of mine! I brought stickers and everyone decorated it :slight_smile: (blurred all the addresses!)
