The Mosgots are...

...ready to fly.

Before I explain what a 'mosgot' is, I just wanted to prove that my desk is still tidy...

...even after 'mosgot' construction LOL

It seems kinda bland just saying it was a 'typo' but that's how it started.

When UKS have a CyberCrop it has been a sort of tradition to have a Mascot Swap - usually an exchange of small cuddly toys that the recipient can sit on their desk/work area.

Someone asked if there was going to be a swap this time but instead of 'mascot' it printed as 'mosgot'...so The Detectives are having an ATC Mosgot Swap (sounds much more fun than mascots LOL).

These are my five completed and ready to wing off to Suzie...

...who is acting as swap host for the event.

I went with some cheery 'menguins' (no that is not another typo - it's what we have always jokingly called them in our family)

You might have noticed that there are some little menguins below the ATCs...these are little 'mosgots' that the recipients will be able to use in any way they like (there are a variety of mini menguins so they might not match the image on the front of the ATC (and they will be snuggling inside the ATC for their journey).

I actually made 6 of these so that I could keep one...

...as you can see - this little chappie has made himself at home on my nice tidy storage stack.

Never having made an ATC before (I don't think you can count the samples that we made at one of Andy's "Tim style" days) I didn't realise how difficult it could be to make something soooooooooooooooooo small. Worse than that, I was worried that my efforts would be woeful against the creations of the others in the swap. Never mind - we're all in it for the fun so I hope folk will like these when they recieve them.

Suzie; they are heading to the seaside and will be in the post to you tomorrow......................................
