Christmas in May and again in October!

Christmas happened for the second time this year, when we got our boxes and boxes from Wilson. Apart from the goodies we had ordered from the States which he brought for us, he had also packed more snacks, a very generous amount, which he had spread across at least 7 boxes (some small). It was so exciting to finally get our hands on the things we ordered. Nick had a very unfortunate time with his new guitar amp, in that it had been configured for US electrical systems and had the little US plug on it, which he cut off, and then attached a regular British plug – this made the amp make a very loud noise and smoke came out of the back. It doesn’t work now. He is going to try reattach the molded US plug and change the fuse, which we are praying will be the solution, otherwise it’s useless. I felt so bad for him, and he wasn’t too pleased about it himself. My scrapbook things are fantastic - my plan for this evening is to do my very first page! Very excited.
