Unbelievable.
I open the door to find a pile of cardboard boxes. And tucked into the top one are two pieces of paper.
One the first one is a short note: "With apologies for all your problems, please find attached your complete order. Wishing you a Merry Christmas, John Fitzsimmons".
The second read as follows:
Dear Valued Customer.
Unfortunately not all of the items in your order were available, so we have substituted the following items:
- Goods requested: Four Colly Birds.
- Goods supplied: Four budgies.
Assuring you of our best attention at all times.
Must have been an online order from Tesco's then!0 -
Has anyone directed Ed Balls' attention to this thread? He may be forced to urgently reissue his useful "christmas hazards" leaflet.0

Not much to add today as in a rush, I'm meeting someone for lunch unexpectedly and need to do my hair and make myself presentable. There was a bit of post, can't really go into details but there are some presents that are definitely far more effective than birds.0
