In December I was FedEx’ed a pair of scissors from the US. Then I moved offices so they crossed from one side of London to another along with my special blue crate. Last Friday we finally we needed them so I walked through central London from my new office so they could accompany me on the epic coach journey to Hampshire. There they had their two minutes of fame before a bit of a rest and an even more epic coach trip back.
Today we had to get them back to the US and the e-mails went something like this:
Please could you organise to have a parcel couriered to the US?
No problem. What does the parcel contain?
A 3 foot pair of scissors.
Really?
Yes. Really.
And if you just did a ‘really?’ too, here’s the evidence. Presenting the most travelled giant scissors I know. (Not that I know of any other pairs. Which is a good thing as they are surprisingly sharp. In fact, how they are not classed as a weapon, I don’t know…) Anyway, back to the evidence::o)
A 3 ft pair of scissors! Must make hair trimming a dramatic sight.
I offered haircuts to everyone in the office, but nobody took me up on it….the meanies!
