Treasures from Leeds, Thanks Jack

[Stich2442]

Where to begin, a package from Leeds arrived on this cold grey and dreary day. Jack managed to jam a load of cool goodies in the envelope.

A slingshot, bookmark & saw guard for a GAK he sent me a little while back.

A harmonica

Joseph Rodgers Ulu

Richards pen knife

A bag with cool carved beads and a hand written note

Thanks Jack always enjoy your eclectic packages, I had a blast opening and going through the treasure trove.
Richards went right into the pocket, daughter and I are playing harp, and I'm sure I will set up a shooting gallery to try out the slingshot.

That little fella looks tender, maybe take it out with the slingshot, seal veal.

Glad the package arrived Pete. I have piles scattered around my house for various members and they keep getting added to. That one was sitting around for quite a while, months in fact, since Scruff gave me the saw-guard, which wasn't really worth sending on its own. Then I saw the harmonica and thought of you. I also thought the pen-knife would match your pipe-tool. I figured you and your little girl might have some fun with the slingshot, and of course the bookmark's for her. I felt kind of guilty about not including something for your missus. At the last minute I thought I could just fit in the bag, which my girlfriend made, but to get it in I had to remove the beer leaflets I'd included. You'll have to get those another time my friend!

Thanks for the kind words, I've been the recipient of plenty of generosity here. In fact I received a couple of parcels myself today, the belt buckle I won in N.E. Tim's generous giveaway, and a Wostenholm Stockman very kindly sent to me by Lyle (pics tomorrow hopefully)

Jack

PS Oh yeah, the Ulu, that must be the oddest item ever to carry a Joseph Rodgers stamp!

why did the walrus go to the tupperware party?
he was looking for a tight seal.
