Box o' books, going and flowers.

1. The postman knocking before he has another Amazon parcel for me -- this from Cat, Alan and Ellie contains: If on a winter's night a traveller by Italo Calvino; Death: the High Cost of Living by Neil Gaiman and Conrad's Fate by Diana Wynne Jones. Will this birthday never end?

2. Buying a travel mug so I can:

a. take my tea with me when I am running late.
b. say 'no' to paper cups.

3. The sound of rose petals falling off the mantelpiece.
