was thrilled to find that my new purple Doctor Marten's ankle boots (brought to me by the postman) are very comfy;

was delighted to have my quote for a 5,000 word translation (brought to me by the internet) on the subject of road building accepted, so I really should be working now!

I was charmed by the film (classic, I think you were picking one true thang, but it's the falsie you should be after!);
I was appalled by the two-day old corpse of a hare on the doorstep;
I was thrilled with my new boots (and panties!?);
but I got the translation job last December and it's long gone now!

So JINX is the WINNAH!
