Please send my regards to your mother. I hope she likes the blend: thyme, dropwort, lady’s bedstraw and birch leaf. Let me know if you require more, there’s plenty of choice in Iceland’s natural pharmacy.

Your affectionate friend and confidant on the limits of ‘the habitable world’,
Fridrik B.

Au revoir!
