GORGEOUS SON IN JAPAN & CATH KIDSTON..HOW ARE THEY RELATED???








WELL LADIES...I PROMISE I WONT DO ANOTHER LISTING FOR A WHILE...I HAVE PROBABLY GONE OVERBOARD A BIT LATELY WITH LISTINGS..AND I WORRY THAT THEY MAY BE JUST TOO BORING !!

BUT I AM JUST SOOO EXCITED I HAD TO SHARE IT WITH SOMEONE..AS IT IS ONLY SOOTY AND ME AT HOME AT THE MINUTE..

AS A BACKGROUND...,

I SIT UP THE FRONT OF MY HOUSE (PER MY NEW LAPTOP..PREVIOUS BLOG)..DOING EBAY..CHECKING EMAILS & BLOGS ETC..AND OF COURSE I AM ACTUALLY KIND OF RIGHT ON THE STREET..SO I CAN SEE THE TRAFFIC PASSING BY..
I ALWAYS GET EXCITED WHEN I SEE THE AUSTRALIA POST VAN PULL UP OUT THE FRONT AS I KNOW HE HAS SOME GOODIES I HAVE ORDERED...BEING DELIVERED AND FOR ME TO BE ABLE TO OFFER FOR SALE ON MY EBAY SITE...

SO I AM SITTING THERE THIS AFTERNOON...THE AUSSIE POST VAN PULLS UP...WITH A BIG BOX OF STUFF...AND SOME OTHER BOX WRAPPED IN LOVELY SKY BLUE COLOUR WITH WHITE STARS ALL THROUGH???

MMMM WHAT IS THIS I THOUGHT...?? LOOKED AT THE WRITING AND IT WAS ALL IN JAPANESE..
THEN MY MIND CLICKED INTO GEAR...
MY SON IS STUDYING LAW AT UNI IN JAPAN...HE KNEW IT WAS MY BIRTHDAY LAST WEEK..
HE KNEW I LOVE CATH KIDSTON STUFF..
HE KNEW I TOLD HIM TO SEE IF HE COULD FIND HER STORE IN JAPAN..WHICH I KNEW HE DID!!
HE FOUND IT IN THE CITY HE IS LIVING IN....HOW CONVENIENT...I SHALL JUST HAVE TO GO AND VISIT HIM NOW!!

AND HE HAS SENT ME THE MOST GORGEOUS BOX OF HER GOODIES..

THE ROSES APRON...OVEN MITT..KITCHEN BAG...

ALL BEAUTIFULLY PACKAGED..WRAPPED..WITH A LITTLE GIFT CARD WHERE HE HAS WISHED ME A BELATED HAPPY BIRTHDAY IN BOTH ENGLISH AND JAPANESE..

I AM JUST SOO STOKED!!

GORGEOUS 21 YO SON...WHOM I MISS TERRIBLY...BUT AT LEAST HE IS READILY ACCESSIBLE VIA SKYPE..

OHHHH ...THIS IS THE BEST PRESSIe I have probably EVer HAD!!

Hey Andrea,
What do you mean you wont do any more listings for a while???? THEY ARE NOT BORING & I enjoy reading them!!!! Ooooooh what a beautiful pressie I am very envious, I love Cath Kidston stuff but don't own anything of hers (yet)! You honestly have a very thoughtful son.

I will be back tomorrow looking for more from you!

Enjoy the rest of your day.

What beautiful special presents which you will treasure for ever.
You must be extremely proud of your son, a big step for him to take I bet, although sounds like he has loads of family support

Andrea we are at the Mornington Antique Centre, you went to Tyabb, ours if 65 Tyabb road, Mornington, maybe I might get to meet you in person oneday

Hope you and Sooty had an enjoyable day
