Yesterday I met my postman about a kilometre from home up on one of the farm roads.
He drove next to me while I was doing my exercise walk.
Told me he had delivered a parcel for me, through the letter slot in the front door.
International delivery he said.
I knew instantly what it was.
Vladimir, in Russia had told me in one of our Whatsapp chats that he had put a small parcel in the post for me.
So when I got home, the shape gave it away.
Russian License plate for my collection.
Even better, it falls into my preferred group of different, unusual etc as it is a temporary plate for moving vehicles from one city or region to another.
Thick laminated, and flexible so it can be tied on with string.
Also included, some working gloves for the garage, a Lenin Lapel badge for my weirdness cabinet, and then a necklace for Sally, so nice in this community that people feel the need to acknowledge the others in our builds.
Also in the parcel……..
A horse decoration form the 1800’s that Vladimir found while treasure hunting in a field.
Being a Horse decoration, this may possibly become the keyring for the Rezin Rockit.
Horsepower and all that.
Life is good.
