Boyfriend left red-faced after engraving birthday gift with delivery instructions instead of sweet message

When it comes to ordering gifts, Daniel Varey is clearly not up to scratch…

The hapless 28-year-old’s instructions to a delivery driver got engraved on a gin glass he bought partner Hayley Woodward for her birthday – after he had filled in the form wrongly.

It read: “Can we have it ­delivered before Monday if possible as that’s her 30th. Nice one.”

Daniel’s message should have been: “Happy 30th birthday, ­princess. Love you millions.”

Luckily, Hayley saw the funny side.

Daniel said: “She couldn’t stop laughing. The order form had a section saying ‘note for the glass’ and notes for the ­business.

"I got them back to front.”

Hayley enjoyed a birthday drink in the glass at the couple’s home in Manchester.

She said: “It’s hilarious. It cheered me up about my ­lockdown birthday.”
