Doing a crossword over lunch I was missing the last letter in 'TAMEL_'. The only possible option seemed to be Y but what on earth was a tam-el-y. Was it a sort of orange?* That sounded vaguely familiar.
Then it struck me.

There are many things in life I'd like to have done for me, cleaning to name but one. (I could go on and list everything but then you'd realise what a princess I am.) But the thing I'd absolutely love someone to do for me is hang curtains.
I've never been taught how so where there should be neat pencil pleats - as shown in the photo in the advert - I have assorted sized and shaped bumps. And what do you do with those little bits of string that dangle at the edges?
This is why I've put it off for so long and now it seems I have to put it off for a bit longer while I go and buy more curtain hooks. And I know I have a bag of spare hooks somewhere but can I find it?

This reminds me of the friend, reading aloud, came to the word canaries. Read it as canneries, asked me how that worked in a sentence about pets.
Easy to do, boud.
I've gotten to a point where I could be perfectly happy having someone else do everything for me so that I could sit around and be a princess all day long :)
