I BOUGHT AN ELEPHANT IN A CHARITY SHOP

She looked so alone and my eye went straight to her. I’m pretty sure she is female. As well as being beautiful she is a money box!

At first she was reluctant to leave the shop but was persuaded to after being packed in bubble wrap.

So she now has a new home in pride of place on the top of my bookcase.

I will drop a few pennies through the slot on her back so she knows that she is useful.
