    It really annoys me when they try to sell you insurance and expect you to start paying straightaway when something has a warranty. Maybe when the warranty is up but not before.

    I once went to the beauty place to have my eyebrows shaped and it was only when she showed me them in the mirror I found I had polyfilla on my forehead and nose. 
    I had gone straight from doing some DIY ! 
    Oh dear :lol:  :lol:
