Here's the thing. Yesterday I starting working on the ultimate birthday gift for my husband. His birthday is in July. (I know, very early of me, but necessary.)
I wanted to contact his favourite celebrity people to have them send me something handwritten that I could have framed to hang in the house. In the case of a band - lyrics, in the case of other people (comedians, tv personalities) a piece of advice or something they have learned.
Anyway, I emailed a band and explained in detail only to find that after sending it I had joined their mailing list and would soon receive an email of my last posting.....as would ALL OTHER PEOPLE ON THEIR MAILING LIST.
My husband could just well be on this list as their site is in his "favourites". So much for a surprise.
