Just a line to let you know your tobacco fetched up OK yesterday. Ever so many thanks for it. A fine large tin full & it has arrived in excellent shape, not too dry. It couldn't have arrived at a more opportune moment as I was completely out of "baccy" at the time, & I have since been enjoying several good pipes full!
