jenniferw88 Glad it got there! I made a bit of a mistake when wrapping the books, so one of them has been opened and replaced with a different one - it's not anyone else's fault (I should have checked the book against your read ones for this country before I did it 😂)! 2y
ju.ca.no @jenniferw88 oh no, sorry for the trouble😅😅 2y
jenniferw88 @ju.ca.no Not your fault! I'd actually bought 3 books anyway, so it was just a case of double-checking what you'd read and replacing the one with the other 😂 (I couldn't decide which to send, so my mishap worked out for the best really!) 2y
