I had to laugh at the comment 'posh zumba' :rotfl:
I used to go line-dancing and it never occurred to me that, depending on the venue, it would be 'posh linedancing' or << shock-horror>> 'skanky linedancing' :rotfl:
(No offense intended - I just couldn't think of another word that was un-posh

I think it would depend on when you bought them and how long you've had them. If I bought a bag of potatoes I would expect them to last a week without any problems, any less than that and I'd be complaining. By the way, I never keep potatoes in the fridge, always in a brown paper bag in the cupboard. If their helpline is a freephone number give it a ring and see what they say, it won't have cost you anything to find out. Good luck
ETA: I've just realised today is the 16th :eek:, so yes, I would definately complain.0 -
