We got our Christmas parcel today from #1 son & DIL today.
We were dog minding Connie today so waited until after we had taken her home & had our tea.
Lovely treats & it was lovely opening them.
The post from NZ is very erratic at the moment as no one is allowed to visit so I’m presuming not many planes going to Auckland.
Three good things:
1. We love watching train journey programmes on the TV...makes a change from Covid news!
2. Another stunning day without a cloud in the sky.
3. Antifreeze spray for the car window screen. We aren’t used to having frozen windows but only a carport here. We have managed to squeeze both cars front ends under cover tonight.
@casablanca Among other stuff were a pair of beautiful stud earrings made out of recycled gin bottles...looks like Bombay Sapphire bottles as they are a beautiful translucent colour!
Sometimes the presents that arrive after Xmas are the best - you can concentrate on them. Kerry (Manchester) just got the present we sent to her - sent on 1st December!
@maggiemae There you are maggie, they probably all came on the same plane! Cathy got her parcel today too & I know Lesley will have posted them in very good time. We also got a Christmas card too.
How lovely to have a 'late' parcel to open. And special treats. I need to post treats to both our girls but the queue at the shop where the post office is now is very off putting!!
How long till normal returns??
I love any alternative to Covid news too. Escape to the country is a treat.
Lovely shot. Bet you had Lovely surprises for presents. I'm sure the note was not required as you tore off the wrapping immediately you received the parcels.
A delayed delivery just extends the holiday fun! Our mail is pretty much off the rails too. Amazon amazes me with their delivery efficiency when other delivery sources are bogged down by the pandemic.
I quite feel like a chocolate tonight after hearing the news!
