Long ago and far away
A standing joke in our family since 2001 has been the use of this wrapping paper and today finally sees the end of the roll.
The wrapping paper roll, many metres of it, was bought in our Paris days when I was constantly wrapping gifts to take to official functions or visits to other Defence Attaches' homes.
The roll returned to Australia with us in 2001 and has since wrapped presents for family members on birthdays and multiple other occasions. Snippets have also accompanied greeting cards when loved ones were too far away for posted presents.
So we come to the end of an era, the end of the roll, the last parcel has been wrapped in this paper.
