Thank you so much BSJ & unomusette! The card came in a lovely red ribbon envelope and was delivered just in time from my arrival after a busy day at college

I've just opened my card and it's an absolute work of art. I take my hat off to unomusette and BSJ although I'll be cleaning up glitter for weeks! Festive greetings to you both.

Yeah, please, don't post anything for the time being! Have in mind that I live in the bottom of the world and will surely be the last one to receive it.

As you are South of the equator does your bath water go down the plug hole in the opposite direction to us in the northern hemisphere? I'm not sure if this is an urban myth or not

I'm not sure if this is an urban myth or not Horace, how do you ask that? Everyone knows that's totally true. Water down here heads to the equator with such strength that it even climbs surfaces with negative sloping to get there. Sometimes it even falls upwards, headed to the ceiling

Or, in other words, you didn't take a shower during the whole trip, not even with the heat you have in Zambia.

Did Uno forget to include the facts of glitter? It's life span and instructions - what to do with, the how's and why's and why not's?
That woman!
Thanks, Wilko!

Huge congratulations, nickheynes! Both for becoming a Full Member and for being first to receive a card, you should do the lottery as well before bedtime I did warn you about the massive amounts of glitter you were risking, is there any still on the card? My PVA glue had gone all watery so I had to use wallpaper border adhesive....seemed OK at the time but might not stand up to the Royal Mail rollers yeh the glue is holding up well. If anything the rollers squished it down good and proper Did the lottery but no luck Any way I seem to remember an advert showing a bloke being flung about by a helicopter whilst being stuck to a board by no more than humble wallpaper,. So if it's good enough for him ........

Question for unomusette: did you send any card to Australia (or New Zealand, for that matter)? In that case, there's a chance I won't be the last one to receive it.
