Well have I got a latest acquisition or should I say acquisitions & lots of them, think is I was not even expecting one of them TBH & I am way beyond happy about the parcel that turned up on my door step today, Dennis had said he would be sending me a little something as way of a thank you & I had expected a card & a bib fortuna cape for one of my sons beaters, not quite what I got, he has put some real thought in to this & it shows BIG TIME
So this is what I got & I will run it the same way as my new found collecting buddy did with his parcel, in order of inding & opening, excellent packaging to -
first up what I think may well be a home made chocolate stars Christmas tree - outstanding & will go down a treat with the whole family on Christmas day no doubt.
Next up is something I have missed ever since I moved away from Germany some 30 years ago, its called waldmiester (woodruff) & this type in the form of jelly, no idea how Dennis remembered, but in one of our first talks I mentioned just how much I miss the flavor of this stuff which seems to only be available in Germany.
Next up is the item that I think pleased me most, outrageously funny (who said Germans have no sense of humour), some custome play-set instructions for the above :lol: quality, thank you Dennis, your a star!
Next were 4 figures & a bib cloak which are for my sons christmas box, he will be chuffed & will know where these came from
Next was this stunning little box, his attention to detail is spot on as is his taste (or was this your better half's choice?)
Which contained these lovely goodies
Some unusual tea bags, going to brew one up after I post this, no bloody idea what type but they sure smell good, a Milka Santa (milka is huge in Germany & the usual chocolate of choice BTW) & a mini stollen, a much have for a traditional German Christmas, these are going to go down well with the whole family.
& this baggie as a trade for one I sent to him a little while ago
There was also a very personal christmas greeting card, chuffed to bits only starts to cover what I am feeling about this parcel & this great guy - thank you buddy.
