Hi there,

Thanks,

I think the giraffes may deserve an explanation:

It is so that I have become a collector of giraffes. It started many years ago when my children were much smaller and they wanted to get something for Daddy on Father’s day or my birthday or Christmas and I’d say that I already have too many ties that I rarely ware
but if they could get a nice giraffe I’d be very happy-and they thought it fun. This coincided with many of the bedtime stories I’d tell to them often had giraffes in them.

These days I have about 100 giraffes and it is becoming increasingly more difficult to find some that are not duplicates.’


And yes I got two very nice ones made in Kenya from Don just in time for my birthday

Have fun
BJ
