      • Clearly the brand resonated so negatively that I replaced it with another. Apologies DHL. Next I’ll be calling his companion ball Mitre 😂 Big hand clap to the first person to remember the ball’s name w/o googling. That is if you haven’t got anything more important to do on a Sunday

    • Thanks for the shout out Steve – the wall tiles I got through Mixtiles at less than £10 each. It’s an app in which you just crop images to square, upload them then order wall pictures/ tiles
