Ok, after much coffee I have worked out the matches LOL. If you find a problem let me know. Please check yours before sending anything, as its the first one Ive organised!
Ive done as many matches as I can, so we get lots of parcels in the mail

Please ship out by Saturday, March 3rd. If you can ship earlier thats great, if its going to be later, PLEASE pm your partner and let them know!!! Im sure its still fine, but try and get them out on time
