It does Trish - she sent a hamper from there a couple of years ago when I broke both my wrists - the whicker hamper we have kept!

arrived this morning. OH got to our door in time to see our neighbour ready to sign for package. Neighbour was most impressed in his words 'to see how the other half lived'. The package had Fortnum & Mason all over it and when we opened there inside another box (looking like a jewel box) was cradled a bottle of champagne, pull open a drawer and there was smoked salmon in a chill bag!!! Aren't we the lucky ones?
