Came to Katy's house for the weekend as we had a BBQ to go to at friends of hers, which would include Alpacas..... yes please.
So after feeding the cats, I went to the post office to collect a parcel.
As is my preference, using Prozac, the little van that can.
Then drove the 50 miles to her place, continuing to grin, despite the traffic on the M25 being a bit rubbish.
Another thing that made me smile when I got here were these riders, riding their horses though the High Street.
Only in England.
Once I unpacked the van (brought my ironing too, yes I am spoiled, but it's a fair trade for doing her yard work cutting grass etc) I also unpacked the box.....
A gift from the USA from Clem and Kim in Fayetteville, Arkansas........
www.tubatrucks.com Take a look.
Blown away again at generosity beyond the call of duty.
The parcel was meant to be some Louisiana Gold Hot sauce, as I had used the last of my precious stash brought back from Kim's kitchen last year.
Of course there was a box with 12 bottles in there.
Also some awesome vintage Chevy stuff, and my personal emotional favourite, a Sinclair Dino soap.
Clem also added in a very very neat numberplate for my collection.
And lastly, some Dollars in cash for the charity collection that he had previously asked me to advance him.
Guess I will have to go to the USA to spend it.
Thank you Clem and Kim for the donation. You guys rock!!
Later I cut the grass, then we went shopping etc, and by 4pm off to BBQ
A great day so far.
