avalanche

no - not what you are thinking - more of an avalanche of boxes and parcels and all that sort of stuff. When it rains it pours and each time I got one opened, unpacked, and safely out of the way, another arrived. The boxes arrived from London and inside I found some things I forgot to mention in the newsletter - never mind, they will keep for next month. Julia's book has basically flown out the door - not many left. Maggie's book has danced away as well in pursuit and this lovely new book from Angie Hughes arrived as well and a number have also left the house. I am afraid that there is still a pile of orders to do tomorrow along with the latest Cloth Paper Scissors which also decided today was the day. Send these out tomorrow.

Rebecca sent me a picture of the Ranfurly Shield - won by Wellington after a 27year year drought. Thanks Rebecca - I can see you holding it for me!


Here are some mangoes I had to photgraph in London - don't you love the colours?
