Shame, shame, shame !!!
I received my package from Becka-Kate more than 1 week ago now and did not tell anything to her, neither on the forum !! I'm sorry, but I was just busy with a Bookcrossing meeting in my town.
So, here we are !!!
You can see in my package a round Christmas tree decoration with Australian animals on it, a smiling keyring, an Australian penny magnet (former money of the country if I did well understand) , and sweets called "lifesavers" that represents swimming.
There were also round stickers...
... and a postcard with circles on it ! (Do you know I'm fond of spirals ??) (I am !)
Thank you Becky !! I'm now just waiting fron Christmas to hang your decoration on my tree !

Mood, I am glad you liked all your gifts! ( and I am even more glad that they arrived!)
The 'rings' are handmade by local crafters, not me. And they are not for your fingers  they are to put around the stem of your wine glass so you remember which glass is yours...
I try to always buy local products but it is not always easy...

Today I received my package from Petra! Apparently there was some misunderstanding about the house number on the package, but the neighbours figured out it was probably mine and delivered it today. I was so happy! The presents are really great! I got a tablet for in bath which smells really good, a small piece of soap, a round candle, candy, a pin from Germany and a card and a really great medaillion with pictures of my TV Tiah Tigris on it. Thank you so much!

Thank you Abby for the nice present. I really forgot about it until I found your package in my mailbox. So I had been more surprised than I would have been before - you see, everything is fine

a bath lily
coconut shea butter - I love it
candies
