Dave, I refute the claim that I am responsible for the damage to the first giraffe. Has Claire not told you of the suprisingly high frequency of Earth Quakes in the Hinckley area!!! The replacement which you have sent over will remain in it’s bubble wrap until it can be found a home with yourselves! Glad you’re both enjoying your adventures.

Hi Dad

Clumsy? You? Of course we wouldn’t dare say such a thing! Glad the new giraffe arrived safely and mum’s put it out of your reach.

How did your first day as wedding driver go? You didn’t step on the bride’s dress did you?!

Love Claire (not Squiffy) xx
