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 Confused. 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 Hmm 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 Smile

I am a glasses wearing Rachel....damn no extra 'a'!

Will be watching with bated breath to see who 'wins' though!

I am a Rachael who is supposed to wear glasses for reading computer etc Xmas Grin

rockin maxybrown is supposed to wear glasses. If she got that thing, it'd be like you'd given her The Gift Of Sight.

Wow.

Aww my dd is Rachel and has glasses for the whiteboard at school. She would have loved this if the spelling had been correct.

drummerswife · 20/12/2012 08:23

well my middle names rachel but i would change it to rachael and use it as my first name and buy glasses from poundland just to own such an item Xmas Grin

Kirstoll · 20/12/2012 08:29

I wonder why they MADE such an item?! Methinks rockin had it specially commissioned JUST to make us chuckle at Christmas Xmas Wink

Themilkybarisonme · 20/12/2012 08:58

I'm a glasses-losing Rachael! But I get round it by using disposable contact lenses.

I'm quite scared by the little head

Chopsypie · 20/12/2012 09:29

Still no decision?

Have I won yet?

rockinaroundthebadtasteflump · 20/12/2012 12:29

Chopsypie by the mere fact that you're still remotely interested you can have it Xmas Smile

Might not make it for Christmas now though so don't pin all your festive hopes on it....

I dont think Rachael would mind not getting this!

We3bunniesOfOrientAre · 20/12/2012 13:14

I vote for chopsypie such a shame my dsis hasn't got the extra a, the fact she has 20 20 vision I'm sure could be overcome. What would it look like in sunglasses?

I think that company are deliberately posting those heads out 'accidentally' because they can't shift them.

thestringcheesemassacre · 20/12/2012 13:22

Ahem, I am a Rachael who wears glasses.

Themilkybarisonme · 20/12/2012 13:38

Do we have the foundations (ingredients?) for a very specific quiche here?

rockinaroundthebadtasteflump · 20/12/2012 13:45

Ooh please please yes I've never been allowed in a quiche before

What shall we call it?

Chopsypie · 20/12/2012 13:53

Oooh, I dont think I've ever met a quiche criteria before.

Count me in.

greensnail · 20/12/2012 13:54

Dh has one of those, but it is just the nose with no mouth and isn't personalised. It was meant to be a present from the dds but he found it and asked "what the hell is that?" So he's getting to use it already. He's not called Rachael though.

uggmum · 20/12/2012 13:59

I am a Rebecca who wears glasses. But everyone gets my name wrong and calls
me Rachael by mistake

rockinaroundthebadtasteflump · 20/12/2012 14:00

How do the glasses stay on with just a nose? On 'Rachaels' they rest on the top lip Xmas Confused

Do we just call it something like the 'Easter Island Rachael Quiche' or does it have to be something clever? I don't do clever Xmas Blush

Sorry doesn't count ugg. You can be in my quiche with no name though Xmas Grin

TheSkiingGardener · 20/12/2012 14:01

I'm also a Rachael that wears glasses. I'm really surprised how many of us there are who spell their name correctly.

Maybe we could start quiches with other random requirements too.

Chopsypie · 20/12/2012 14:10

Lost Glasses Rachaels quiche

Themilkybarisonme · 20/12/2012 14:13

Rachael Lost Her Glasses in the Quiche
