[you may find there are still 20 or 30 shades of “blue” if you are looking for a car touch up]
If all the different colours were grouped together that would be a start but they are all spread randomly around 😂

Too right, Mrs J! x

[The last time we moved home our mortgage advisor used to sign off her emails with a x. I found it quite endearing, although I did wonder if she was wanting to move in :-) ]

[When emails became a thing in workplaces, I was a bit perturbed that our PA was ending her in-house emails with the abbreviation for lots of love, because I didn't know what LOL stood for]

Got to say I've worked in commerce since 1979 and I have NEVER in my life seen a kiss (x) at the end of a work related email, letter, fax, memo, telex or any other medium of communication. And the day that I do is the day I retire.

[My neighbour also thinks LOL means lots of love, which lead to interesting messages when our respective parents died.]
