I blooming LOVE the arrival of a surprise parcel, and this one from my parents was no exception.
A selection of New York illustrated postcards, a gift wrapping set. union jack bunting, loads of chocolates, and a book called "The New Look: A Social History of the Forties and Fifties"
Don't you just love the cover illustration? Wonderful!
Receiving a parcel of such a calibre is a lovely way to start the day, I'm sure you'll agree!
Pip pip xx
