Told you so!

Remember a few weeks ago when I was telling you about the lovely holiday house we were trying to book-that was available up until precisely the day we wanted to book it and then alas it was gone-for exactly the week we wanted it!

And how I whinged and said this kind of thing always happens to us-to the point where it is a bit of a family joke-albeit not a particularly funny one!

ok so I realised i sounded like a bit of a brat and decided not to tell you when a week or so laterit happened again. Remember that black dress i wanted for an engagement party? well I emailed, asked if it was in stock in my size, was told it was and to go ahead and order it and it would be available for next day delivery.

A few days later...no dress!. I waited until two days before the party and decided to send an email just to check that everything was ok----got an apologetic email back saying "there must have been some mistake, dress not in stock etc etc etc" Cut a long story short and many emails later I got a different dress which arrived just in time.Phew!

But like I said-always happens to us.

Fast forward to the weekend. Toilet broken-again! Called real estate to order plumber. without toilet for a full 24 hours (do not want to talk about it!!!!!!) finally thought i should call and check that something had been arranged. "oh, I'm not sure what has happened here-will get someone out to you right away" someone came within an hour and a half!

again-always happens to us.

Now here's the funniest one yet...TMI coming your way so step out soon if you are a prude.

decided to order our first "adult" purchase online, a device for some adult couple fun. In stock-check! ......Next day delivery-check!......Payment processed-check! what could possibly go wrong??

Waited excitedly.....no discreet parcel....no email.....hmmmmmm

Sent an email today to check progress of order "oh er.. it looks like there was a problem with your order...it wasn't processed properly....sometimes happens with paypal blah blah blah"

For *insert F-bomb!*'s sake!

The sex shop can't even get a friggin order straight!!!! what on earth is wrong with people? Why is everyone we come into contact with completely incompetent?

I'm going quietly crazy............
