I'll help sell it for you

Today was exhausting, woken up early by a nightmare of spiders, and being chased by a madman with a machete, to return to the spiders weaving webs rapidly over fruit and vegetables and live chickens.Aira most certainly wove her web around me.Hearing a noise first thing I found Aira at the front door collecting the post.one letter having been addressed in particular to herI don't know what it said, as I don't inspect my doll's post, but know that it happened to be from her sister in France. I gathered from odd things she said during the day that she'd told her that although sunbathing was great in the south of France,it was important to be well turned out,it was important not to allow anyone to see her naughty bits when taking a restand that it was fun to go and get a job from time to timeThe next I knew there was a delivery driver phoning to find out how to get here as he had a parcel. Apparently it was a present from ChloÃ©, one of her wigs, suggesting that Airatry it onbut she decided that this French look was too sophisticated for her so reverted.Over breakfast, I'd told her that I had some inverters to sell on ebay but that I hadn't easily found a model to model them. She said that she'd already looked at the instruction bookand thought that we most certainly didn't need to rely on those Chinese ladies to do our marketing for usand how silly it was to put those electrical things in waterShe then told me that ChloÃ© had really resented being used as a porn model . . . the indignity of it!and that we shouldn't be relying on porn to sell our products."So how better do we do it?" I said.So I got my camera and we went outside, doing a shoot of our Chinese inverters from whatever angles came naturallyThis seemed very successful. Then the news came that our friendly mechanic was looking over the new mower and that the lads were going to put the old one onto ebay.she piped up, so we trekked over to the barn.Her driving lesson the other day seemed to stand us in good stead, and she was a naturalmaking sure we could see there was something under the bonnet as wellShe really loves showing off her enginesCommanding the scene superblyshe displayed the mower to perfectionThen the trouble started.She saw the mechanic looking cool, and wanted to look like that tooand then she started seducing himAnd then one of the lads decided that he had a radio to sell and asked her to model it for himensuring of course special placement of the microphone for the best effect"Great!" came the shout from the lads "That's a wrap"and whilst we were clearing up, the next thing we saw was that she'd jumped into the mechanics vanWe just couldn't believe our eyesThere she was, wanting to be taken for a ride.All set and ready to goKnown for his speedy workthis man clearly has something . . .but after giving him two black eyesAira remembered why she was with me . . . and we returned to the house where she decided she'd better be good for the rest of the day. One of the inverters had to go out in the post so she kindly carried it into the kitchenand put on it's protective wrappingmade sure the instruction book was properly insertedand put on the protective polystyrene paddingput it into the boxwith great careand closed up the boxeven wrapping it up with tapeand sealing it down properlyBefore I could blink she'd got it in the car, telling me that I needed to get going if we were going to catch the afternoon post.She said that she'd looked forward to meeting the man in the post office as she'd heard he was such a kind manand so she went in and passed the parcel over the counter.But before I could say "Jack Robinson"she seemed to have attracted yet another boyfriendand they were worryingly besotted with each other.However I reminded Aira that it was she who had the VISA card and that she might need to pay for the parceland as she did so,the nice man behind the counter hid.He knew her secret:Never let a doll look you in the eyeand likewise never ever look a doll in the eyePhew! That was a close shave. Mission accomplished we started on our way home.When she got home she felt a bit tiredand I discovered that a thin spot of skin on the front of her ankle had actually opened up during the course of the day and that she'd need emergency surgery.Without anaestheticshe was in terrible pain but upon surgeon's instructions with superglue (although I'm really not at all sure about that), acetone and special silicone adhesive,it's all nicely now bandaged with sellotape and she'll be fine again in a day or two . . .ChloÃ© sends her a kiss from Franceand will send a "Get well soon" card and flowers in the morning . . .
