Oh my gosh, we got home from work yesterday, slipped into our Halloween outfits and then found an unexpected and most mahoooosive envelope that Lucy must have left on the kitchen table for us to find ….. it had a romantic American postmark on it, and we immediately guessed that it was something very special from our lovely friends in sunny Florida, Dianne and Doug.
Inside it was packed with the most wonderful Halloween objets d’arts…. 
……. and a special Halloween card and wish for each of us. Needless to say we were all overwhelmed and several manly tears were discretely wiped away. We are so very lucky to have such lovely friends from all over the world, especially Dianne and Doug.
I duly put our cards on the shelf so that we could admire them as we are having our breakfast and evening repasts, they looked most splendid.
Then we looked at all the other wondrous themed things Dianne and Doug had sent ….. oh my ….. there was a table centre piece that will definitely be in at the centre of our seasonal table every day until Halloween is nigh, and Nigel will be in big trouble if he dares get tomato sauce anywhere near it! 
There were also some lovely stickers ….. much to aforementionably lovely to stick on things …..
….. except perhaps this one which Darrell decided to stick on Nigel’s face!
Darrell then, with the skills not akin to a Selfridges window dresser, arranged all the bits around our cards to create a most wonderful celebratory Halloween display …..
…… with Nigel declaring that he had a feeling in his water that this was going to be his favouritist Halloween ever, ever, ever!
xxxx Thank you Dianne and Doug for thinking about us all those millions of miles away in Florida we love you! xxxx
