IT'S NOT ROCKET SALAD

by eggbod @ 01. Jul 2009 – 11:54:29

"Don't blame it on sunshine!". Well actually I will......for I believe the habitually sweaty, humid weather in London is responsible for every petty cock-up including my computer deciding to adopt the indolence of a Koala bear sleeping off an 18-hour lunch of eucalyptus leaves........

And the fact for the second day on the trot, Next Directory have sent me the WRONG order. One day at a time sweetpea face!

IT'S NOT ROCKET SALAD!!!!

Duelling duvets at dawn, if only!

I just wanna cover for my frigging bed! Not any old sweaty, tog-50,arctic eiderdown either. Just a nice taffeta throw. Before I end up throwing a taffeta tantrum!

I want a rocket salad now. With sun-blushed tomatoes, feta cheese and olives, if you please.

Throw a taffeta tantrum as prettily as you can - it will be well worth it

  This is the second day of duelling duvets!!!!!
  
  I ordered a copper taffeta throw - gorgeous colour shot through lapis lazuli blue, very light, washable and will suffice as a duvet in this heat. Can they get it right? Can they bedlinen buggery!!!!!

I understand you 'wanna cover' the 'frigging bed'.
Tzk, tzk, that bed! Is frigging... uncovered. How outrageous!

  What would Bruno have to say about an uncovered bed?
  
  Despite the glaring oversight that his fashion sense is more unmade bed

    true, Bruno's style is 'unmade bed'... but more than likely 'not frigging' - not really, I suppose

      I should imagine that with his lack of fashion sense, have you seen that pink knitted outfit he wore with attached knitted penis, he is unlikely to frig!

  Faultless Jack.
  
  I would have to raid cardboard city though! They keep sending the incorrect stuff in plastic bags. Very sweaty I believe!

ohh dear it would probably have been quicker to use the traditional method and actually go to the shop...

  I did go to the shop!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  
  They never had it in stock. In fact I went to two shops!
  
  They do however have it online. They just can't send the right item. Somebody must be telling me something.

These are desperate times, medear and I expect those Next men are simply trying new ways to beat the credit crunch.

Clearly, they are hoping you are suffering so badly from heatstroke that you wouldn't realise that the grubby electric-shocking bri-nylon pink number with bobbles and fringes that they've been trying to offload for the last decade wasn't quite what you ordered.

  You have hit the nail on the head there Ellie....
  
  The first wrong item was a striped, brash affair in pink and brown. I did not order a duvet set. I ordered a bed throw. It is lighter and so much more attractive to look at. So it's round three tomorrow with ding-dong of the doorbell once again. The courier probably thinks I fancy him.

Typical that is..Id be demanding the bedspread for free..Plus damages.. due to the fact that I had to sleep without a bedpread on my bed as I had thrown the old one away in anticipation of new one arriving..And I had to wait in all day for delivery man missing out on a day spent in the sun..And agree that £1000 is due in compensation!! ..Or else..

  Well it's 3rd time lucky today.......
  
  We shall see if they can get it right this time. Pathetic really as all they have to do is read!
  
  I tried two of their shops but they had no stock so I was forced to buy online and they can't get it right.
