 		Woooo! It arrived! Finally, proof that posting stuff from work does eventually get despatched... stoopid mailroom...

Hope you enjoy it - best £1 I've ever spent, that!

That "small metal thingmy" looks very much like a 'slug trap' that my parents bought me ages ago.. much like a bear trap/man trap, but smaller. I guess you could use it to catch mice or somesuch if you really wanted to. Razz

I had no idea a quid went quite so far these days.

Oh, and for future reference, NEVER trust your postroom with anything even remotely urgent. The franking/postmark thingy on it was dated.......yesterday. Rolling Eyes

 		I am happy to announce that Gibbet is a Genius (as if you didn't know already!)

My randomness was.... a Tally Cube!

(a rubik's cube arranged to spell the letters TALLY, each on a different face)

It is sooo cool! Thanks Gibbet.

(pics will follow asap)

 		Well, it's official - Postrooms truly suck arse. I shall be having words with The Boy tomorrow. Words involving pointy sticks.

 		fFiera sent me this really cool handful of glittery ooooze! With Hello Kitty trapped inside, excaliming "-help I'm drowning! *glub glub*"!
Quote:
This is an official U-M hospital gift shop thing!
I am also quick to point out: fFiera's signature looks like it could be some puzzle scribe's. Smile

So I had a bit of fFun, in a little story I like to call "Hello Kitty, Goodbye Ooooze"

(The little plastic stars are neato too Smile )

Thanks fFiera!!

 		I must apologise to Enigmaster for being quite so rubbish - my excuse is that I've been swamped with work - however, I did get the below puzzle safe and sound. Thanks! Smile

Poozle,

The cards are for solving Shuffled, The 'Mystic memo' is in case you have any messages best kept from teh sneeky 3P.

I'm sure you can work out the balloons yourself.

Thanks fFiera!!

You're welcome, and thanks for the great story! My sister (who helped me pick it out) and I giggled muchly over it. I'm very glad you're enjoying it and hope you appreciate the many, many hours of labor I put into wrapping it. Wink
