Anybody need a present for a 'Rachael' who wears glasses....?

[rockinaroundthebadtasteflump]

A mail order company has just sent me a random thing (in error). It's like a wooden ornament, carved into a face shape, a bit like the Easter Island heads . And it has 'Rachael' carved on the front of it. Apparently it's a 'personalised glasses holder' (the face wears the glasses).

I've just phoned them and they've apologised for the error and said that I can 'keep it with their compliments'. Lucky me I don't know any Rachaels, let alone any who wear glasses...

So anyway, in the spirit of Christmas I thought I would offer it out there, should anyone want a slightly wierd stocking filler for a Rachael who tends to lose her glasses

PS Actually it's not like the Easter Island heads as it has no eyes, just a nose and a mouth....

Not really selling it to you am I

Like this?

That's it!

I think that this is what charity shops are for......

Ha ha, good point . I'll do that tomorrow if nobody lets me know they want it by then...

The first thread for ages to make me laugh out loud... I love MN for the randomness of the posts

G'waaaaaaaaaaan Evian you know you want it but you're just too shy to ask

Haha, that's the most bonkers gift I've seen this year. What the hell do they think you're going to do with it?!

Maybe I should start another thread "Give me ideas of what I can do with this - best one wins a 'mystery prize'" (can't think what...)

Unfortunately DD and I aren't called Racheal and the one I know spelt like that doesn't wear glasses.

That is so random and funny - MN at its best!

I am called Rachel and I wear glasses - no extra A though.

That's made my day that has! :)

Remus you could change the spelling of your name or anyone else I believe deed poll is quite a simple process

Ooh yes do that, it's definitely worth it

rockin - I love this thread. Please don't be too hasty in going to charity shop, as I am DETERMINED that there must be a MN-er out there who knows Rachael, you know, the one that always loses her glasses.

Ooh I like that idea

I will hang onto them for now - I may even put them on the mantlepiece adorned with a nice sprig of holly

But if you're out there Rachael with the lost glasses - I may just have the answer to your prayers....

Oh yes - knit a tiny Santa hat for it too.

them? WTF, I meant 'it'. There is, and can only be, one

does it she need a tiara?
I have a few slightly wonky ones that I don't need.

But Aha Norks maybe your tiara needs a wooden glasses face with no eyes, eh?

Maybe it's the actual head that's called Rachael rather than belonging to one...

I am a Rachael who wears glasses!!!

Cyclebump!!! Where have you been!!

Say the word and they are yours

Only condition is you have to post a pic on your profile in the new year showing you proudly using it

Hurray! :)

I think I've frightened her away now

Come back Rachael with an 'a' who wears glasses!
