Haha, Sammy, I'm having the same trouble trying to restrain myself with the colour covers.

But can also do a Red Skip P Character - Philip.... Just sayin', LOL

Hoping it will be fantastic. I've persuaded my husband to come along and he's not a cruise fan but I keep reassuring him it's a working ferry.. with a side of luxury. Stay tuned..

My trip to Norway is only for two weeks and is in April during Uno, so I'll be able to bore you with all my oohs and ahhs, LOL. We're doing the coastal ferry but with the new Havila boats, they do the same route as the traditional Hurtigruten. It's a long way to go for a short time, but hey you take what you can get, LOL.

Sally, next year I'm doing the rest of the Danube from Budapest to Bucharest with Scenic. My sister has just retired and we're doing the trip together.

Checking into UNO 10. Hello everyone. 😁

Think I've played somewhere, sometime with nearly everyone this year. Looks like we've got a great team. Love the theme.

Just to refresh - I'm from Sydney and we also have a dairy farm in Southern NSW. I have 3 grownup children and 6 grandchildren, and as well as doing admin for our business I am a full time carer for our adult son with autism. Other than my family, my other passion is travelling.. this year I have trips to Norway and Japan, and a family trip to Fiji which will be a blast with the grand kids.

Mmm.. social challenge.. yes but I do tend to get a tiny bit competitive when it comes to the colour covers, so I'll try and rein it in this year. Looking forward to playing with you all.

Haha, I continually hoard colour covers now. See something that fits and pop it in my TBR. 😁

I'm really looking forward to the new Karen M Moning book too. 😍

Sounds good.

Alyana, maybe just factor that in to the number of books you read in a month in your sign up. That way it won't affect the team you're in. 😊

Yay.. so glad you're playing. It would be great if all of us Aussie's get on a Super Aus team. Like getting the band back together. 😁

PS - I've been eyeing off those 2 NF books also - I've got the Phillipa Gregory on order from my library too - but I think I'll keep the David Mitchell on the TBR for when I need a letter U!

Hi Lisa. I'm signed up too. Hope we're on ..."

Happy New Year to you to, Elisabeth! Usually the Aussies are on the same team so fingers crossed.

Now I'm all signed up for this year's UNO... I'm wondering what the theme will be.. There hasn't been any hints, has there?

Oooh, UNO. Let the colour cover hoarding begin!

I'm looking forward to this one this year..

and this one..The Gathering Storm: Morland Dynasty #36: the new book in the beloved historical series. It's been 11 years since the last book.

Congrats Luna Moth! And thanks again to the Mods and the Uno Pixie, another great year!

Ready to start hoarding colour covers for 2024... bwahahahaha.

Great work everyone. I know real life happens but it is frustrating when people drop out.... but we had a great team and we all had a lot of fun.

And thanks to our Captains for again doing such a fantastic job.

See you all for UNO 2024!

Finished my last book. Bye bye Uno for 2023. 😭
