A Parcel of Summer
Pixie Folk: Letterbox Elf hopes that you like the weather he brought back for you all the way from the sunny North . . . enough blue sky and sunshine to last for at least two days (he hopes to make it spread over more) and a deeper blue for the sea. That's all he had room for in his travelling trunk, though he says he'd like to have brought enough pink and white manuka stars to scatter over all the hill' tops of Wellington. (Yd rather have our golden gorse, wouldn't you?). Fie has bathed in a sparkling bay every morning and roasted himself to a painful pink on the sand, watching the planes twisting and turning in the blue above the bay and the Clipper's great wings just skimming the tops of the garden trees on its outward flight. So now, pixie people, see that you keep him very busy opening your letters and your parcels of scrapbooks* for his holiday-time is over and there are Christmas plans to be made. I hope you like the Hallowe'en stories in the Ring tonight. Did anyone go to a ghostie party this week? My love to every elf! FAIRIEL. P.S.—We're waiting for the Christmas scrapbooks to arrive at the Ring. Whose will be first? — F.
