Dutch Treat or, The Kind People You Meet In Blogging.
*
Knock knock!
Who’s there?
The courier.
The courier who?
The courier who’s bringing you a parcel and would like to get home for his dinner after a long day of traffic jams, bad weather and suspicious people who won’t open the door and take this *%^£! parcel off my hands so I can get back to my own wife and family. We celebrate Christmas too, you know; they’d like me to be there.
An unexpected parcel arrives.
I open it (obviously).
Who sent me a notebook?
A broken notebook, because I hear rattling?
No, wait! It’s even better than an electronic gadget – it’s…food!
Dutch food, from my kind and generous blogging friend, KiwiDutch. Please visit her blog, because it’s cheaper than sending a ‘thank you’ card.
We have eaten the perishables (yummy) and saved the rest for Christmas.
Thank you for the lovely surprise, KiwiDutch!
And while I’m thanking people:
I have the funniest readers in the blogosphere (not necessarily ha ha…)
