THE MINCE PIE MASSACRE

Yesterday I got a food parcel from my darling Orkney cousin, Mouse. This is by way of an apology for not being home this Christmas - she's in Norway with her boss, Jane Goodall.

Mouse is an enthusiastic packer of parcels...

Me - I'm such a smart-arse - being an ex-potter I know how to wrap just about anything fragile so it won't get trashed in the post...

I love crumbs!
