Although some of them you can sort-of understand, although they do exhibit a certain lack of research.

My teenage daughter was ordering something online, and was enchanted to discover the range of titles beyond Ms/Miss/Dr/Professor etc. on the drop-down list. So every now and again a parcel arrives addressed to

Squadron Leader Lucy Emmasdaughter

I was trying (and failing) to buy some tickets for Covent Garden, and in the same way was sorely tempted to get them sent to

Her Serene Highness Emma...

Oh please do it! I'm going to try that one!

What a great idea! All this internet Christmas shopping can be made so much more interesting if we try out a different title with every order.

Proud to say I was ~ "Good Afternoon"

Glad he remembered me........

BTW loved the photo of Andy...good to know he actually reads something..........

Agreed, love the photo of him – very suave! My favourite by far is ‘Dear Andrew Literary Agency Master Lownie’.

I also plan to compete with Emma and MandC to see who can receive the most preposterous parcel/envelope. My aim? Sultan Captain Morgan.

The next batch....
