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

Rachael / cycle, the tiara offer still stands

Another Rachael who wears glasses here. and I lose them. I get round this by owning 4 pairs. I could maybe buy one for each pair and make my own little easter island

Ooh, these RachAels are like buses

I'm enjoying myself too much to end it now though - can I drag it out a bit longer before I decide who the 'winner' is?

Im actually quite impressed that they had it spelt with the extra A. My childhood was spent looking longing at other childrens personalised pencils because I couldnt find any spelt the right way. Rachel was just not acceptable.

Ah Chopsypie a sob story will get you everywhere with me

Arrghhh, I wasnt going for the sympathy vote!
I feel all embarrassed now

Yeah I believe you

I think there needs to be a bit of a 'StrictlyComeGlasses' type competition, with looooooooooooooong pauses and a phone-in vote

Damn - I'm a glasses wearing Rachel not an Rachael! Never regretted being and 'el before!!!!

Crusoe maybe if you win you could blob a bit of blue tac over the extra 'a'?

whoo hoo! I'm 'most active'

Just keeping it going....

Help me someone!

cyclebump and chopsypie ... do either of you have a friend or relative who is moaning about not getting what he / she ordered for you in the post?

If you collect and display it ... imagine how that would put the wind up them come new year!

yoooohoooooo everybody.
Rachaels this way please

I luff you both

All the Rachels I know are el. One of them is short sighted but wears contacts.

Damn, I could have given it to her as a Christmas present. She'll be gutted when I tell her, gutted I say!

My DD wears glasses and she's always losing them but her name isn't Rachael or Rachel.

I'm a Rachael, but I only wear glasses for driving. Could I mount it on my dashboard do youthink?!!

Can you not rename your DD?

This has made me splutter tea everywhere.

I wonder who will win!

I knew there would be Rachaels out there.

I believed in the poorly-sighted Rachaels.

Yes Hazel, yes you did

Nobody even wants to win. I was expecting to come back to at least a handful of begging PMs for me to consider - but no

So glad cycle bump beat me too it ;-) I've a step daughter called Rachael who wears glasses!
