Aww Scones I really can't thank you enough GrinGrinGrin

SconeRhymesWithGone · 02/10/2013 00:00

My pleasure, Purple. Smile

Minnie is now sitting on my dining room table waiting for her journey across the ocean which will begin tomorrow morning. The saleswoman who helped me was the same one I spoke with yesterday, and she was very excited to hear Minnie is going to a baby in the UK and had put the bouncer aside so no one else could get it until I got there.

I am sitting here in the pouring rain waiting to take my girls to school with tears of joy on mt cheeks and a feeling of humbleness at the kindness of the world SmileSmile

I have tracking information but so far all the website says is "in transit."
Thanks to Purple and Trinity and everyone for your kind words, but it was no trouble at all and a lot of fun. I am really looking forward to hearing that Minnie arrived safe and sound.

My 3 year old granddaughter has been telling her friends at nursery that I sent Minnie Mouse across the ocean to "Puh-pull Play-low." Her teacher was a bit Hmm.

BillyBanter · 05/10/2013 01:29
