Oh yeh, wait a minute Mr Postman….

I love receiving parcels, well post in general really.

 I like to write to friends on lovely crisp paper with a colour co-coordinated gorgeous ink pen…stuck in the old days or simply traditional? If you ask my friends they would agree yup that’s typical of me? A knock on the door… hooray it’s the Postman with a parcel for ME. There’s something very satisfying about slicing through the tape and rustling through the tissue paper. Even if I know what the contents are I always have a slight in-take of breath and a rush of surprise. Whether you are the sort of girl like me that folds up the bubble wrap and flat pack the box (in case I should need it one day hmm as if the other boxes I have collected are going to miraculously disappear). Or like my friend who literally takes a running jump and dives head first into the box and emerges covered in packaging clutching the prized goods. Instructions and receipts are dull dull dull so she just leaves them in the box and throws it away and will say when she has tried and failed to make sense of the products. ‘It doesn’t work- or I don’t know what I am supposed to do’. Will she ever learn, if she had bothered to read the letter and instructions she would know and life would be a lot simpler.

Here at HO we answer so many calls from girls that didn’t bother to read the letter until the day of training if at all. So we often have hurried mobile calls from girls on their way to training who say ‘Where am I supposed to go’ ‘Oh I forgot to patch test’ so crucial and believe me if you have a reaction you’ll wish you had remembered.

I do try to call you all and make sure that you have patch tested/practiced and you know where you are going but please Ladies make life easier for yourselves; Read the paperwork and have a stress free training day. Speak soon x
