While Darrell was away in London a mahoooosive parcel arrived with a big air mail sticker on, it was from Christopher our friend in sunny and romantic Florida.
But, as it was addressed to
all of us, we decided to leave it unopened until Darrell returned to the family bosom.
The inside the parcel was both overwhelming and wondrous, with a Halloween card for each of us ….
…… trick or treat sweets of an American type nature, including peanut butter cups which we
adore robustly
, but don’t indulge in very often, it made us feel very spoilt ….
…. but we had to tell Nigel, firmly, that they would have to be rationed and he could have one small bar and a peanut butter cup each day ….. otherwise, he’d have them all eaten before bedtime and then we would undoubtedly have to deal with the unsavoury consequences!
There was also two mahooosive jars of micro glitter which was most fortuitous as we have just begun to put our much feted Christmas cards together and this glitter will come in very useful!!!!
And finally, attached to the Halloween trick or treat house was a little cuddly bat …. which Nigel asked if he could keep for himself ….
Ahhhh bless him. We cannot thank Christopher enough for thinking of us and sending us such a wonderful present. THANK YOU CHRISTOPHER XXXXXXX
