Scots mum left red-faced after ordering tiny pool for daughter

dailyrecord.co.uk:

weather in a nice paddling pool, however mum Claire, 31, didn't get what she was expecting in the post. The stay-at-home mum unwrapped the £12 package from eBay to find the item was tiny, leaving poor Amy with more of a foot spa than a swimming pool.

Claire, from Macduff, Aberdeenshire, said: "I wanted to get a paddling pool for my daughter but didn't want anything too big because it would take too long to fill, so I thought this would be perfect."It definitely wasn't.

I just laughed so much when I opened it."Usually eBay isn't too bad for shopping fails but I guess I've just got bad luck."I put my TV remote in it just to emphasise how small it was."I might just fill it up with water and let my cat drink out of it.
