The hat

Not quite reversible...?

YAY for recycling postage boxes :-)

I framed a copy  of this poem I love for Al’s cousin’s wife…..   and Al ended up getting a JB Hi-Fi voucher for Owen.  Not the most creative gift ever, but at least he’ll be able to buy what he wants.  It’s a bit hard when you are “secret santa” for someone in the family you hardly know.  But at least it’s a good family approach to including everyone and not breaking the budget of  anyone.

The poem I love. By a guy called Tomihiro Hoshino. He was almost totally paralysed in an accident and learned to write and paint with his mouth!!

This time in a week, Al and I will be in GERMANY!!!!  Excitement plus!!!
