unexpected gift!

When Ray came in from ambulance car driving one day this week, he presented me with these 'eraser-topped pencils'. I think I was a bit too effusive in my thanks because he then said, 'I just got them from the pound shop'... (I think I'm going to go and see what else I can buy in there for £1!)
