Well, would you believe it! My elves got the package off extra early because the Post Office elf thought that it could take a while to get there, what with your customs people and all.

The elves are now running wild, congratulating themselves on a Job Well Done. (Do you know how hard it is to concentrate on writing when the little blighters are driving you crazy, climbing the drapes and squeaking away at the top of their lungs?). Anyway, now I can relax, knowing that the package has reached your door.

If you wish, Ms Joybell, you may take off the outer wrapping to find one gift which may be enjoyed early. As to the rest - it's up to you whether you want to wait until Christmas Day.
