Did it became clear what exactly went wrong?

Hi sorry I've been busy. seems I messed up with the list. I have been severely under stress. I have read back through my messages and have mixed up and sent Thedude the wrong address. Myself and my GF use the same laptop and she had sent her address to a relative for christmas cards I had posted it to Thedude by mistake. I know no-one will believe it when I say I generally didn't realize it was like Paste 'send' paste 'send' I was trying to organize  this and juggle a hundred things! However I have never received anything else apart from Hiartheus,my GF has not received a few things she was waiting for from Amazon either. I believe I sent to Kampfler. I will resend if he has not received it.
Please believe that this is not intentional.

That was Josh's last communication to Grant.
No one heard from him ever since.

Intentional or not, it is kind of hard to believe he pasted his own/his GF's address AND he did't see this AND the package from TheDude didn't arrive AND several packages from Amazon also didn't arrive AND the package he sent to you also didn't arrive. The accumulation of all of this just appears very unlikely  :think:

In my opinion there are 3 possibilities:
- Josh is lying
- Josh's GF is screwing Josh (but not in the good way)
- Josh is a muddle-head (and if you know yourself being that way you shouldn't organise something like this...)

We don't know, and we haven't heard from Josh.  Leave it at that please.
