I visited the UK for the first time this past May and in a shop in Bourton on the Water those silly ducks caught my eye and I brought 3 home. I love them so of course I had to order the Christmas ones and I was so thrilled when they came! I'm coming back to look for a small vacation home this coming May and I'm sure I'll be buying more! They're unique and wonderful and everyone comments on them when they come to my home! Thanks for the awesome customer service when ordering them as well! Elizabeth Mason
