the word for Friday 26.02.2010 is ENCLOSED

Today's word is Enclosed.  One way to describe this word, is to put a person inside a prison cell which encloses them in a confine space. Or you could put a rabbit in a box and close the lid, which means the rabbit is enclosed in a box. Then you could put a letter inside an envelope, close the flap and you have enclosed it inside the envelope. So l had quite a few ideas, as l started to go and get my pocket rocket from the garage to go shopping at tesco's Supermarket! How exciting l hear you say.  The main garage is surrounded by brick walls and two up and over electric doors. Ah! my image but then l realised there was more to it than just that. The big garage encloses my small garage and my mini is enclosed in the small garage! Three "enclosed" from one image!!!..if you see what l mean!!
