Happy Mail 3 - All the Austen Things

 I may have mentioned the Literary Gift Company on here before, with a warning to perhaps hide your credit card before you start browsing. They also have a sister company called Present Indicative and the same caveat applies. That said I mostly use them for presents for other people but a couple of weeks ago I decide to let myself go slightly wild, brought up the Browse by Author menu and clicked on Jane Austen. 

And lo and behold, several days later I received a large box which contained this

It isn't actually all the Austen things they sell but it's a pretty collection nonetheless. Mug, candle, 3 themed notebooks, a tote bag and a smaller zipped bag to match. 

And not in the picture, but inevitably this as well

It was harder to do than you might think. 

Meanwhile I am in daily expectation of more happy mail, but the postman is proving a disappointment in this  respect as he hasn't ventured up our drive, not even with the election communications which are destined to go  straight from front doormat to the recycling bin, for three whole days. 

Ah well, perhaps today.
