Yeah, actually I do have news, hot from my chat window, five minutes ago.
He's not going to send them up, he is too busy.

He really is, he just started a new job with huge responsibilities and the place is a mess. He leaves home at 07.00 when the post office isn't even open yet, and he comes home at night after the post office is closed. And in the weekends he is working too.
I am back in America on the 21st of March. So if he doesn't send them this week and the post is slow they could even arrive after I am back in America again!
And then I could ask my nice neighbor to send them up.
And then they would maybe arrive after I have left for the Netherlands again....
