    Referees also have a preference to reuse the same ball rather than change them if it's necessary. There was an instant second half where Ogie had picked another ball up to take a throw in but the referee enforced the previous ball to be used, so he had to trudge over and retrieve the previous one. I'm certainly not going be having a go at children.

    A picture can say a thousand words...... only if the subject matter will sit still long enough to take a photograph...... and it would help if the subject matter actually exists !

    Yesterday, I received an item I purchased online - a 'stocking filler' for one of our grandkids this Christmas - a handheld games consul, bought from a popular site.....It came missing the 2 Sim 'style' games cards.

    On my laptop I logged into my purchase history - located the order transaction and noticed I could contact the seller via an online chat -- which I duly started..... I am mindful of the need to be brief - but - to provide exact information.... I stated the order came with complete contents except the games cards. I said I didn't want to return the item I had received - nor wanted a refund - but I did want the cards, without which the consul was useless to me..... I stupidly thought that the seller would understand !..........

    The seller replied - stating that they had confirmed the order subject to my enquiry and then asked;

    Seller '' Can you upload a picture to support your enquiry.'' Me '' How can I do that - the cards are missing.. I can't take a picture of something that doesn't exist.'' Seller '' Can you take a picture of the items that came with the order.'' Me '' Why ? I do not have any problem with the items that have been sent with the order. My problem is with the item that haven't been sent - and I still cant send a picture of something I haven't got - if I could take a picture of the missing item - they wouldn't be missing.'' Seller '' Would you like to raise a query about your order and the action you require from the seller ?'' Me '' What ? I thought that's exactly what I was doing through this online chat - when the option I was given was to chat with the seller - isn't that you?''..... Seller '' Yes, I am the seller - but - the site rules state that you have to raise a query through the Website from where you placed your order - for them to monitor the actions taken by the parties involved.'. Me '' OK, I understand.. What will you do for me when I send you all of the same information - without any pictures of something which doesn't exist - but perhaps a short video of me searching inside an empty package ? '' Seller '' I will send you replacement games cards in the post.'' Me '' Can you include a photograph of the games cards - so that I know what should be in the envelope - just in case the games cards aren't inside, then I can provide Royal Mail details when I raise a postal query.''
