Subject: RE: BS: What'd Ya Get?
I received a small but perfectly formed selection of small pressies. Most of them were handmade soaps & like Georgiansilver I did wonder if I had the dreaded BO & it was too late for "don't wait to be told ..." All were examples of hasdmade soaps, so perhaps not. One was sitting on a highly polished pearl shell (which will join my shell collection at the end of the bath) & came with a gorgeous little franjipani soap - my favourite flower & now I weill have an everlasting one. I also received a tiny little elephant incense holder with tiny weeny incense.

My pressie from my brother's family was a fantastic colourful gift certificate, (designed by my 12 year old nephew & created by my 8-year old niece) entitling the bearer to one copy of the Dr Who 40th Annversary book from any ABC shop. I'd asked for the book, but said it would probably be too heavy to post.

I also got a wonderful postcard-style chrissy card from a friend who heads to Churchill, Canada, each year to photograph polar bears & other wildlife. The pic shows a mother bear & 2 cubs.

I also bought myself a few 'To: Me, From: Me' pressies including chrissy decorations & a craft book.
