Lovely gesture.

I had a pleasant surprise this morning when my cleaner came. She handed me a prettily wrapped present and said "Laura has asked me to give you this and she hopes you will both have a nice Christmas."
I have never met Laura because she is my cleaners boss who runs the business although I have spoken to her on the phone.
She has sent a lovely hand made card and a box of Belgian chocolates.
I thought it was a lovely gesture and its much appreciated.
I will phone her later to thank her for the kind thought.
What say you?

It is a nice gesture Maisie at least she's appreciative for your support to her business. Do people still give elderly people Christmas hampers there?

Hi Corrie and Deja,

No they dont hand out hampers here Corrie. I believe that finished many moons ago.

Just had a few of the chocs Deja. Not bad.
I have given hubby all the nougat ones. I cant stand it.

That was a lovely gesture Maisie.

That is a shame about the hampers, prior to retiring from work we would give out at least 500 hampers to local old folk, we collected tins/goodies from September onwards and would begin the boxing/wrapping process at the beginning of December. A friend who has a holiday home here leaves us a hamper of English goodies we can't get here for our Christmas present, love it!
