Inside is a mini drone thing - a flying machine. I suspect it is what had been bought with the details from my card. So I am asking myself why would a 70-year-old want such a toy?

Ah well, I'll keep it for a while and if nobody claims it the local charity shop will get a present.

Apparently it was ordered through something called Temu.


Just seen how much they sell for :o

Sell it Jo, if you still have it. You can always donate the money, if you like :idea:

Kaz, it's not Jo's it's mine. :D :D :D

If nobody claims it within weeks it will go to my favourite charity shop. It does similar work to our old dearly departed Scarlett (Sarah), with children in Thailand.
