What Luck!

I decided to walk around town today while waiting for my hairdresser. Am in serious need of a trim. And on a whim chose to enter WHSmith. Events unfolded pretty much like this:

1. Wander into stationary section
2. Successful spot check around mechanical pencils!!
3. Text mum "I just found our pencil in WHS!! It's purple and costs 1.99"
4. She text me "Buy me five"
5. I replied "Ok five were all they had and I read the label wrong 2.99 each"
6. Mum's comment "Buy"
7. Mine "Bought!"

And so about fifteen minutes later (this time is due to the lovely assistant who went to find out if they had any more in the stock cupboard for me) I leave WHS with five new Ultimate RPG pencils!

The good news is they are finally available in Britain. The bad news I still don't have a new one and the hairdresser wasn't available so I still have floppy hair. On the good side new stock should come in and hopefully in more colours than Purple.

But you did not text me! You are disowned as a sister...
And after you forced me to give one of mine to mum ages ago as well, grrrr!

Will venture into WHSmith here and see if they are similarily enlightened tomorrow.
