If there was a way to send you some...they would be on the next flight.

PS no favouritism here but we go to the Sandringham Royal Estate (old Liz spends xmas there) quite often at weekends for walks etc.

Last time we went I wanted to get you a tin of Royal Sandringham tea ( I know you love your tea) but in the shop the tins were a bit bashed and battered.

I asked but they said they didn't have any nicer ones but bear in mind that as soon as they restock...I'll get a tin sent over to you!!!!!!!!!!

This is the place...

http://www.sandringhamestate.co.uk/Index.asp

It's only about 10 minutes drive from us.

Quite often the Royals are there in fact old Liz and Phil are out and about and visit my home town quite often.

I saw Diana a few times when she was alive, only once said hello to her (I actually went to the same junior school as her). Never met Charles, I really like Charles and what he stands for. Be nice to just shake his hand one day!

You don't have to do that! Besides, it's the thought that counts.

Remember my friend that I purchased the teapot for? We had a playdate at her house on Tuesday, and she gave the Brown Betty its ceremonial first voyage -- no more tea in the microwave.

I though of England, of course!

Imagine your friend when you turn up with tea from the queen's residence?

You're getting a tin and that is that my dear!!!!!!!

Don't make me get all English irate and stuffy.

Laundry...shut the hell up, you'll get us all roped into it.

My hands are way too soft and pretty to get all calloused up doing laundry.

Halfwood 3-1/2?????????????

At least she aint dreaming about Driftwood1957!!!!!!!!!!!

That's cause to worry!
