SarahWoo May 2020 7:35pm, 21 May 2020 11,277 posts	0 SarahWoo Been and given mine tonight. Much slower today - 8 m 35! The bag got a neo-natal tag - didn’t someone mention those recently? Mint club (no bourbons or custard creams ) and a glass of water afterwards. All very well organised with plenty of social distancing going on.
