    The text says "Horsegranny" and I love the mug, cap and the keyring they gave me. :D I can't wait for spring! Then I can wear a cap again, instead of thick, wooly hats.

    Oooohhh, the grandchildren thought about what you would enjoy, and then gave it to you! What lovely, thoughtful and caring children! The gift is wonderful, but having such kind and well brought up grandchildren is even better!

    Yes, I'm very grateful that they picked such useful presents for me. :D I love to receive practical presents. We've got enough candle holders, carafes and such sitting about. :D Nothing wrong with gifts like that, but I feel we don't need eight or nine caraffes.

    Thanks all. :D I wore the cap inside today. :D I think it's a wonderful present. It will be worn until it's worn-out. I'm just worried I'll break the mug.
