After trundling down to the local Post Office depot-thingie this morning, I managed to retrieve my awesome tea swap from the very kind emoonstone! Thank you so much! :D

Sorry about the lack of pictures, but here's the nitty gritty on the swag:
Boxes of Tea Pigs 'Winter Warmer' tea which tastes like liquid Christmas (yay!), Jasmine tea (oooh, interesting and so fragrant) and Aztec choco tea, not to mention more Teapigs samples of Creme Bruelee and Flake tea! I adored Teapigs already - so what a perfect selection!
Also included in my box o' joy were some lovely biscuits (undamaged - no need to worry emoonstone, your packing skills are ace), and a beautiful hand-stitched card.

Thanks once again for a lovely surprise, and thanks to Emma for yet another fab swap!

a wee BPAL order..

Thanks very much for joining in! Will keep everyone updated re. the whereabouts of our order.


I am almost out of my wee halloweenie decants and decided that I'm in dire need of actual bottles - I'm going to place an order before they're discontinued.

Since there's a flat rate of $13 for about 15 bottles from the US to the UK, meaning that I have 11 bottles worth of space to spare, I wondered if a few folk who were in a similar halloweenie crisis situation fancied joining in on the order and splitting the postage?

It would be a very mini-bpal group order, like etienne's in October, and work the same - paypalling the funds for the bottles themselves (plus paypal fees) then paypalling the shared shipping ($13 divided by however many people take part) plus me-to-you postage once the order arrives.

I'll be placing the order on Monday the 3rd of November, in the evening.
