Two decades ago, I remeber seeing a Slovene brand of tissues in a corner shop in London and getting all excited about it – after three weeks away from home, I might have been the tiniest bit homesick. This week, I saw the very same brand in the supermarket where I usually do most of my weekly shopping and got just as excited; a little piece of home that carries all the mories and emotions of my childhood. All that in a packet of tissues, who would have ever immagined!
The children, on the other hand, got to celebrate a belated birthday of one of their best friends, while their new bed was being built back home. Oh, the excitement!
