First Mailing has been opened and already off to a great start! For those waiting, it's a small box, not an envelope. The two new experiences are impressing me so far (even with the recent news).

Mine arrived Friday. I like what I'm seeing so far. Only got to take a quick look as I'm recovering from eye surgery. Still need to read the journal. Also, I've probably cursed myself. Darn protective scarabs.

I'm very happy with this too, though unless I'm misunderstanding something, the aging seems a little off on some of the items. Still, content is great, and there appears to be a light puzzle or two (well, more like translation). I must say, I do like the box as opposed to the envelope.

Yes, very pleased with the first mailing! Nothing like unwrapping the muslin from around a good scarab !

Ha, jokes on me. Spent a while last night trying to do the obvious with the items, and then at lunch today I read the journal pages.

Just got my first mailing here in Germany. Oh wow, I waited a long time for something like this. This is beyond any expectations I had. I am smitten by the amount of details and items they put in this first mailing. Hopefully the rest of this experience will hold up to the high standards this mailing is setting.

Got mine today (it's been waiting at the office for me to come back). I absolutely love it

This experience reminds me of how excellent John Auger was. Both this one and FiS have me very excited for the future. Translating the Hieroglyphs was quite fun. Cannot wait for the next mailing.

Received this as a Christmas gift and the first mailing just arrived today. I'm quite pleased.

I am wondering if I might have lost something from the first mailing. I am thinking that there were three double-sided pages of hieroglyph translations. The ones from "A Summary of Common Hieroglyphic Characters". But I can only find two sheets. Would someone be so kind to give me the correct count?

Many thanks. It surely isn't the first time my memory has failed me, and it won't be the last.
