Firstly an apology to my gifter when they see this - Everything in my life is a little mental right now, both personal and work, so I've been insanely busy and so, despite taking the photos and appreciating (and even using) the simple pleasure, I some how neglected to post it... Until now!

So I got to my parents for my mother's 50th (I still have their address for any parcels that may not be apt for opening in my open-plan office as the postman refuses to deliver to our door 80% of the time), and lo and behold there was a gift for me as well as many for my mother!

So I did what any one else would do - put the kettle on, sat in an arm chair and went to town on the packaging...
