Merry anniversary :) (y)
Seems like not only have we both inherited exactly the same Stuart whisky-glasses from our fathers-in-law, but we took their daughters off their hands in the same year. There should be a comedy plot somewhere there... :D

That's a nice looking soap container. What's the soap like? I gather it's Greek, so I assume the name is pronounced Kerkini...
