    It is important that we know where we come from, because if you do not know where you come from, then you do not know where you are, and if you don't know where you are, then you don't know where you are going. If you don't know where you're going, you're probably going wrong.

    Thank you so much, it's a relief it's agreed for another 12 months. 51 x £25 payments and 1 x £20. Last payment due on the 24th Jan 2020.

    Not a NSD - Asda didn't have any of the same shoes in the correct size. Had to put £2 to the next cheapest I could find. They look much better though and they fit! So that's sorted too.

    Has the parcel arrived yet? Let me know if it doesn’t and I’ll chase it with the PO Xx

    You'd have thought Asda would have waived the £2 for the inconvenience of having to go back and the fact the product was faulty. But at least DD has got shoes again. :)

    That date of Jan 2020 is looking good. :T
