A Most Wonderful, Out Of The Blue, Festive Surprise

Let’s just say Easter was too wonderfully wonderful for words, ……. but, we can’t let the festivities go by without a mahoooosive and impassioned “THANK YOU” to our lovely friend Paula down in romantic Plymouth, who caught us totally emotionally off guard in sending us a surprise Easter themed parcel, crammed with season gifts that arrived out of the blue on Saturday morning!

What can we say?

The Towers was filled with a rampant tangible and palpable excitement as each beautiful present was brought out of the box.

……. from cuddly chicks, mini canvas’s for Darrell’s creative pursuits and Easter egg decorations to paint ……. tears, I am not afraid to say, were shed!

But, as if that wasn’t enough, we’ve saved the best ‘till last ……. there was also an egg box containing the cutest knitted characters we’d ever seen, each harbouring a crème egg within.

What can we say ………

…… except our Sunday morning boiled egg with Marmite soldiers will never be the same again!

We love them, soooooooooooooo much that they are the only eggs we didn’t actually eat yesterday, somehow it seemed tantamount to cannibalism, however, it would be rude not to eat them, for fear that they might go stale, we just feel they should be consumed at an appropriate and poignant Hello Magazine type moment ………. what are we like?

Thank you Paula for making our special Easter even more special than we could ever have dreamed.

XXXX We love you XXXX
