Made me smile Claudia. Reminded me of an order I was sent. I ordered a Shark vacuum cleaner but had to replace it as it was faulty. The replacement arrived in the same size box but when I opened it there was a huge cuddly tiger! He was gorgeous but couldn't do my cleaning.
Thank you, Lizy! Did my comment appear on your blog story about looking through the window? I wrote it and selected my name as the comment poster, then it vanished.
I wrote and posted a story very quickly yesterday morning because I was worried that my laptop was about to crash, which it did. The result is that the story is okay but not what I'd call a triumph.
I have got a Wordpress blog somewhere, yes. I could try and rejuvenate it, but I remember not liking it very much! Wix is very easy for me to use. I had no idea that it's so difficult for a reader. Thanks, Claudia.
I attempted wordpress years ago and I couldn't get on with it at all. It's incredibly irritating to have to fill in my details every time I comment on a wordpress blog - thank god for auto-fill otherwise I swear I wouldn't bother. Blogger was much easier to navigate, with the help of Baggy & co!
I did enjoy your "Hampered" tale, TN. We used to enter a lot of consumer competitions and one year won two hampers in separate contests. When asked to do a talk for a local WI I used "Hampered" as my talk title without letting on the subject of the talk. The suggestions as to what the talk might be about were many and varied and I was thankful some in particular were far from the truth.

Oh TN, love your adventures
TN - I just knew SM would be the first to comment on your bike adventure - and that saddle made me wince too!
Yes, I was delighted that the word 'Hampered' worked both ways for me, Wordy.
Will read yours later, TN.
