    It's up to you really...
    when I got DDs dvds twice I DID return one set, all labelled and explained (they had sent two and I had e mailed and everything) and then they refunded the money (and I got tracking with Quidco) at that point I gave up as I was clearly dealing with idiots! So i ended up with a freebie - but I had tried to 'do the right thing'.

    I'm just concerned that as the assistant's name is on the receipt, she may get into trouble for getting it wrong... so I'm not actually sure what the right thing to do is in this case. I'd have to ring them about it, as I won't be going back in there anytime soon.

    My desk looks lovely :D I might actually remove all the stuff that still needs to be dealt with and add it to another hotspot, so that at least the study will be nice and clear for cleaning this week!

    I have failed miserably this week after starting off well.
    I have been busy today though as as oh so now stuff is in the loft we should get all rooms shipshape by the end of the week.

    I have the Expedit Range from Ikea but i want some feet for it. Not sure where to get them from. I don't like the Ikea ones they are too high and the cat will go underneath them. Any ideas please?

    I have not caught up on the thread either so i am sorry i will try harder but we all rattle alot!!!

    Hugs for all who need them xx
