'Delivery from Argos'. :eek: I stood at the top of the stairs listening to him grunting and groaning as he struggled to get my massive win up the stairs - it was probably the 50 inch TV 
I was a bit taken back when he'd only got a flat pack type thing. Never the less I greedy reached out with my scrawny little arm (although I probably never would've carried it) as I felt that I had to make an effort to drag my win into my apartment and up the hall :j Then he said the dreaded words 'Is this Vantage Point?'. I had to tell him that he'd got the wrong address and VP was over the road :rotfl:
