Thursday's arrivals

These arrived on Thursday with the envelope from Hong Kong. Most of the cards I've received this year have been officials, and that day was no exception on that. The first private swap is from Gaby, and the other from a new acquaintance with whom I hope to swap at least some cards.

The Goosebumps-card was a delighting surprise, by the way: I used to read pretty much all books by R.L. Stine which had been  translated into Finnish. Oh, how scary they were those days...

  1. It would be interesting to hang out in the Trinity College with all those books, stairs and ladder.
    I never read any of the Goosebumps books but used to love watching it on tv with my daughter when she was younger.

    1. It would, wouldn't it?! :D I could spend hours in libraries...
      Did they have a TV-series about those books as well? Wow, thank god we didn't have it here; the books were already scary enough...!
