Thanks to Mr R from Kent for his recent comment regarding an order that arrived from The Garden Factory.
‘Dear James, I appear to have been sent a consignment of fireworks. If you look at my order I ordered a Deer repeller. Whilst fireworks will probably do the trick, it isn’t exactly what I had in mind…’
I quickly wrote back noting that;
‘Dear Mr R,
Please open the box. Inside this box you will find the full contents including one deer repeller. The box is for packaging purposes only and fulfils our requirement of getting your goods to you undamaged and in good shape. There are no fireworks…’
It is worth pointing out that I have just moved house. Therefore, as I am a conscientious recycler (why throw away perfectly good boxes?) you may find, on buying, say, an obelisk a few strange scribbles on your boxes like, ‘children’s toys’ or ‘kitchen pans’.
Therefore, do not be alarmed. Open your box, check your obelisk is there in perfect, pristine condition and then recycle this box in the knowledge that it has performed a task greater than that of moving pans or pictures.
Final note. My daughter has lost one pink sock and a bear with ‘Barcelona’ on the tag. If found, please return.
Thanks
James
