Linda is amazing at taking us along on her journeys!Ooohhh, So where are we going again. The beauty of you traveling is that I don't have to pack, you do it all for me.

Weonard (left) and Wilfred live in our conservatory. Weonard is a Highland Cow (Scottish breed), but was bought in Herefordshire on the Welsh border. He’s named after the village of St Weonard’s where we stopped that day only because we had never heard of St Weonard. In those pre-internet days we figured we could find out if we went in the church, which we did. These days I can give you a link to Wikipedia
Wilfred is a water buffalo from @CarolM’s home town - Cape Town. He’s named after a taxi driver who was wonderfully kind to our children the day we bought Wilfred. They were hot, tired and grouchy and he found water and chocolate and teased and sang with them. We kept his card and used him for the rest of our stay there.
Has anyone else got souvenirs with memories attached?
Happy Hump day indeed
A sunny morning here, 60’s, got an early paddle in.
Just one teaser pix while I take a look at the others.... No calendar contest voting i see...

Was I right? Was I right?
Good progress! I did my shopping yesterday too! All cards are ready, except those for Linda and Sabine. Those probably need less than a week to reach the recipient. Now I need to post them.Not bored. Glad Oli was scared of war. War is never good.
It is Wednesday so not much to report. I did buy the xmas cards for my list. And part of my present for my secret recipient. So yay. Now to write in them and post the cards. Then maybe a few more other items. And I will be able to post my secret gift.
How would one know from outside Europe?But not Switzerland
Have a safe trip, Linda!
No but this is a police artists impression of her.............
I agree. I like this version better.My favourite version which I love to play on the piano.
Another lovely one she does is The First Time Ever I Saw your Face.
Which is why whoever got Bea should send her present last! @MoozillionIt didn’t go entirely to plan. Elsa fell asleep so Jacques had to finish the draw [emoji849]
You’re welcome to join the cards if you wish
And Bea will be organising the unwrapping day for the TORTOISE presents... though she’s always been the worst for wanting to unwrap them early
I received a parcel from the absolutely incredible Sabine today. @Bee62 .
WOW ! ! ! ! ! !
It weighed about 10 kg, nearly killed me getting it back from the Post office. (not that I'm complaining)

Close up of the really exciting coffee.
