Today, through awful wind and weather,
An owl flew in far from her nest -
Exhausted, limp, and torn of feather,
I brought her in so she could rest.
But seconds after her alightment
I almost died from sheer excitement,
For then I saw the package she
Had carried was addressed to me!
My spoiler's package! Yes! Fantastic!
I grabbed a knife and made a start
At pulling the whole box apart,
Then reconsidered - no, too drastic.
I'll grab my camera, take it slow,
And make a little video.

There should be a prize for best posting about a received kit, and you should win it! This must be the most original and wonderful posting of a kit that anyone has done! Thank you so much.
