Early Christmas presents.
« on: December 07, 2009, 08:09:36 AM »
I do a bit of swapping and often send out plants in the spring and summer to people who haven't got anything to swap with at the time but will came back to me with the Pleione swapping season start. I always tell myself that i should keep track of who I've sent to but i always forget. So far people have always contacted me when the time came (Or maybe I've just forgotten about it  :) )

This morning the mailman miraculously arrived before I'd left for work and he brought a small parcel with no return address. I always get an email saying something like 'I've sent you a package, please let me know when it arrives', but this time i wasn't expecting anything. Before i styart tracking through several forum inboxes and 6 month of mail, I'd just ask here if any of you sent the package with Pleiones.  


Still, a nice way to start an othervice dull and foggy  Monday morning

The sender has now been identified.

 Which is why I ended up wondering what I had been sent the other day..... looked like some weird tuber, not like any I'd seen though.... no name on the box of the sender and no name on the tubers.... a real puzzle, until I opened the ziplock bag and got the yummy scent of chocolate.....turns out Mark had sent me some sweeties!!  8)
