My overseas friend sent a birthday present and it arrived 17 days early (thanks's for the maths Annie). So I text her to tell her it arrived and that I wouldn't open it until the day. She texted back and said open it now, I'll send you another one. Can you believe that.

That is very generous. Sounds like a very nice friend. I guess if you decide not to open we will all have to suffer in anticipation. LOL

You are very lucky to have a friend like this! I have been overseas for the last couple of years and am yet to receive a birthday present from anyone outside of where I am based!! It seems that she has just as much excitement for your birthday as you would have and that is great! Just be sure to reciprocate the kindness and the generosity! Traits like this are rare these days in my opinion......

Honestly, my friend is more excited about my birthday than I am. I usually don't give it much energy at all. But it's like I said to bluewings, I'm being made to soften and receive - know what I mean! No problem with returning in kind.
