Getting More Than I Didn't Bargain For

I only just noticed at breakfast time that there were seven crumpets in my pack of six!

There are several names for that - the baker's half dozen, the lucky crumpet, the odd crumpet out, the seventh wonder of the baking world.

At any rate, someone, like me, is likely to tell you "You know, Mr Mean, you ought to buy yourself a lottery ticket today."

The seventh crumpet is also known as "The Lottery Ploy".

Attracting damn spammers to my blog falls into the category of “getting more than I didn't bargain for”, I suppose.

An extra crumpet is always the tastier option than SPAM.

I pressed that link, and as it was loading, I saw the left-hand side of the page pic and thought "that's more than I didn't bargain for in a haircut".
