Having Friends in the right places

Tweet

Something very exciting happened to me yesterday, well in fact its been an ongoing thing for the most part of the start of May month it seems. On my return from a Bowling Game a huge white envelope was waiting for my hubby and myself. Now not many people send us "JOINT-MAIL" but this one was addressed to both our us bearing our first names. That gave a clear indication that the sender was familiar with us and gave rise to more excitement. A British stamp franked marking? . . . now who could that be? A gift from a friend who had enrolled us into "The Association of Lighthouse Keepers" who are Keeping Lighthouse Heritage Alive, which gives us membership for a year. As most of you know my hubby and I are keen Lighthouse Chasers and have seen many around the European shores and African coast line, but never in the UK. Once the parcel was unpacked and we enjoyed the pleasures of its contents, my hubby was all abuzz about the Lighthouses and their locations mentioned in the spring "Lamp" issue. We are interested . . . we need to save . . . we need the RAND/DOLLAR to improve . . . . we wish it was a possibility . . . we are interested John!! @ison1 This all came about after John had hear about it on one of the local radio stations in London. He thought of us and had our gift sent all the way to South Africa. Now that is having friends in the right places! I decided to show everyone the back cover of the Lamp Magazine as I thought it gave a variety of Lighthouses to visit in Scotland. The membership card Lighthouse is in the one at the bottom right hand side - in front of white cliffs. So have you received a surprise gift lately that has uplifted your spirits ? Tell us about it!
