A Christmas tale...

(caring mother) Here, have this hand crafted tapestry, I hope you find it useful, however you use it
(teenage son) Great, it's just what I needed!
(caring mother) [slightly surprised] Glad you like it!

A short while later...

(caring mother) Did you find a good place for that tapestry?
(teenage son) Sure did, it was very helpful!
(caring mother) Helpful?
(teenage son) Sure, I cut it into rags for checking the oil in the car.
(caring mother) You did what!?!

I have sympathy for the HTL but when you give things away it doesn’t always work out as you expect. :-(

It's also way I now never put anything on Trademe with a $1 reserve - sadly it's easier to put it in the bin once you no longer need it.

Mike
