Slowest. Delivery. Ever.
While I was trudging around Europe I collected stuff. Mostly maps, pamphlets, some books, some awesome smoked dutch natural cheese, some Belgian wooden dice and toy, some steins (0.5L from Heineken, 1L from München/Munich), misc stuff, and what I have been talking about far too much: a 0.5L bottle of Absinth 35 (

(An interesting brand, they also have cannabis vodka (0.3%THC) and "Absinth King of Spirits GOLD", which has a staggering 100mg/kg of thujon)

Shipped it out September 7th.
It just arrived today, December 27th. But there is wootage, especially since it arrived just as we were heading out the door to the post office to try find out what had happened.
This also means I have stupid gifts for Fern, Ron, Jad and Cara.
