Number of swap partners:1
Description:

This is for you if you / your hubby / partner / close one(s) like beer, and / or if you collect beer mats or drink coasters in general.

We will have one partner each, and will send him / her five different beer mats advertising beer, preferably from your own country. The adverts may be for a specific type of beer or for a brewery.

As it wisely says on Wikipedia, "beermats are not to be confused with bar mats, rectangular pieces of rubber or absorbent material used to protect the counter top and soak up spilled drinks in a bar or pub." And did you know that "tegestology is a Latin term defined as the practice of collecting beermats or coasters, with practitioners known as tegestologists"? ;-)

This swap is international because the mats are usually free. You only need to pay the postage. I'll angel if I have to, but would prefer not...

Newbies may join this swap. Anybody with a rating higher than 4.75 is welcome, too.

The edited bit: sign-up and send by dates (I'm going to be away on the sign-up date, so moved it forward by two days, likewise the send-by date).

Ah, I learned a new word today, tegestologist!

The original dates were: sign-up 11, send-by 18 June. I'm going to be away and possibly without access to a computer, so I've changed the dates to 13 and 20 June respectively. Happy swapping! :-)

Since the description says the beer coasters should be from your own country I should let everyone know that my beer coasters will be from Belgian beers, not USA beers. I'm hoping that will be okay seeing as at this time there isn't anyone from Belgium signed up and there are two others from the USA signed up besides myself. If it is a problem, let me know and I can drop the swap.
