My son and daughter in law brought me a bottle with a lid on and a glass stuck on top for my birthday. I thought to myself what a strange present and what on earth would they buy that for? What was it? It was deposited in a cupboard to collect dust.
Last week I went down with Covid and felt so ill i could hardly move. Needing to drink lots of water I managed to retrieve the bottle, washed it and filled it with water (it’s original purpose). It has turned out to be a godsend. It still has pride of place on my bedside table!
I guess I have learned a valuable lesson. Never look a gift horse in the mouth and be thankful!
What items have you discarded as unwanted but retrieved as they turned out to be a great benefit when least expected?
a little gift to hopefully brighten your day. Happy Christmas everyoneBoris Johnson referred to the police for suspected further breaches of lockdown regulations.
