          "Did you ever get the birthday present I sent you?"

          "Yes, sort of. I was away so the courier delivered it next door but they were out too so he left it in their porch. When they got back from holiday they called the courier to collect it again. The courier then tried delivering it here and left a card; I couldn't collect it until the weekend because I'm working away from home, and that was the weekend I was supposed to be taking chef to a hotel, so I collected it the following weekend."

          "Well? How was it?"

          "I don't know. It said Product has a 7 day shelf life on the outside, but by this time it was a month old, so I dropped it in the bin at the courier's depot. It wasn't anything special, was it?"

          ""



          My Mum & Dad once came back from a 2 week wedding anniversary holiday to an absolutely huge, dead, bunch of flowers from Interflora that had been on the doorstep since they day they had left.

                The blue and pink text represents a conversation between two people. One has ordered the aforementioned confection to be delivered to the second person.

                The recipient saw the warning on the product about it having a 7 day shelf life - which indeed it does have - and threw it away.

                This upset the sender because the gift was an expensive one.

                It was a means of conveying the concept of "Imagine if it went off before it got eaten" in the from of a conversational narrative to assist the reader to sympathise with the feelings of each participant.

                This was then followed by a real life analogue to bring the fiction closer to the heart and enable empathy in the reader.

                All in all, a waste of 15 minutes of my life, clearly.

                  The explanation or the original post?
