+Butterfly_lady Posted May 14, 2008 Share Posted May 14, 2008 A lovely parcel greeted me today at the end of a long day. Inside was several beautifully wrapped smaller packages and a Postcars of Loch Morlich in the Highlands of Scotland. Too lovely almost to open..... but I did. Inside I found some lovely Bluebell soap, some yummy Edinburgh Rock, some commercial seeds of Scottish Wildflowers and Heather. Plus the Bulgarian Mystic geocoin (wow - one I've been keen to get, but have blown my budget!) Many thanks to Tooey from Scotland for this package. Oh the memories it brings back of a spring trip in 2003. (BC - before caching!) We enjoyed the Edinburgh Rock as an after dinner treat this evening. Quote Link to comment
