What’s not to like about another little gift challenge!
Originating here from Rory at A Guy called Bloke and K9 Doodlepip and gifted onwards to me here by Teresa, The Haunted Wordsmith.
This is the challenge:
Pick five items for five bloggers and put them in the hamper. Then explain what you put in and why.
My first pick is Afternoon Tea at Betty’s Tea Rooms in York where I went to school.
This is for Teresa, The Haunted Wordsmith, to thank her for her gifts to me this year as well as for all her wonderful posts which keep us busy reading, writing and admiring her work. And it will be another little learning experience for her about us weird Brits!
While I was in Betty’s, I noticed this rather splendid Gin Box for my second pick.
Now I’m rather partial to a nip of this stuff myself. However, I immediately though of Ellie Scott, a self-confessed gin drinker.
For all those awesomely witty short stories we’ve enjoyed throughout the year.
Cheers, Ellie!
My third pick is an Illustrated World Atlas
This is for Foster and Panda at Nana’s Whimsical World, so they can choose where to go on their next adventure!
Have fun little guys! (I won’t tell Debra).
So while I was picking out the atlas, I came across this Outline World Map. This was perfect for my fourth pick.
It goes to Mickey & Yunni at Freja Travels so they can colour in all the wonderful countries which we’ve enjoyed hearing about on their travel blog. Thanks for sharing with us!
It really was an excellent book shop, because I also found this for my fifth and final pick.
The latest edition of Roget’s Thesaurus, I was tempted to keep this for myself as my copy is so old and battered.
However, it goes to J.I. Rogers, just in case she runs out of words for her Six Word Challenges, as if you would, Jenn!
Keep ’em coming!
I hope you enjoy your virtual pressies.
As ever, you can pick this up and roll with it or not!
