I can't begin to tell you how excited I am snugs. I'll be checking the mail every day until they arrive. I've never received a gift from across the pond. BTW, that knitted Nativity is precious, and more so when one realizes that they were done by an 80 year old woman.
Snugs, I was a bit worried about you late last night when I refresed my screen one "last" time before going to bed, and learned about the explosion of the oil depot. I didn't know if it was near you or not. I assume that you are not affected.
The oil depot is nowhere near me I live 60 miles from London and Hemel Hempstead is well the other side of London so I am probably over 90 miles from there.
Thanks for your concern though, the chocs should take about a week to get to you.
