Praise for excellent service from a seller.

But surely if the item that was supposed to read 'Hilux Surf' had already been shipped but read 'Toyota Hilux' when it arrived then the seller shipped an item not as described.

No!Astral......Very late on friday night I emailed the seller to explain that I'd made the mistake and asked for advice ...I didn't expect a reply at that time of night/morning...so when I saw that at midday on Saturday the item had been sent I presumed it was too late and that the seller had not seen my plea for help...
So i was amazed when I saw this morning the sign with the words I REALLY wanted on.
So the item wasn't as described I suppose...but it WAS how I wanted it

Because it is stuff we have never done and find a little hard to comprehend, maybe!

Yep. I have a lot of lovely friends and relatives, if I want an uplift I can call someone or visit the forums here.

As far as I know, I've never met any truly evil people. Sheltered life or lucky. So, my favorite reading is science fiction, fantasy, horror and crime novels --- books about things I'll never run into in my real life.

I've been held up at Gun point, & knife point....I've had an emergency landing in a plane.... I've done pot holing, scuba diving, parascending.... Sttared death and a shark in the face on more than one occasion....been involved with a court case where we had to have police protection.... All in all some rather interesting times.....

Why do I still like reading adventure books ?

BUT if we like reading about what we do not encounter .....My total and utter dislike of Romantic books such as Mills & Boon says I have a very happy love life (Sooooooo True....love OH to pieces )

I think it's time to write a book, with your experiences 'The true adventures of Redmerlin777' How is that for a title? Could be made into a Hollywood blockbuster, tv series......

I bought a similar one for my wife last year, instead of having the car make, it was football related and says "Portsmouth Fans Only Parking, All others will be clamped"

PMSL ...I am seriously thinking of writing a soap opera based on the numerous family crises That would probably bring in more than a book

Honestly ...apart from actual murders...the activity of family members here, particularly the kids...provides enough stimulus to write more than a year's worth of episodes

And if a certain young member of our family don't get his act together....maybe the wicked stepmother may finally snap and use the electric guitar stings as a garotte

I am not one for TV soaps, but might watch this one

You mean there is more than one Portmouth fan who needs a parking spot reserved

Or the seller should be selling psychic readings instead

I notice too that this seller is charging less on this site than in his e*** listings - that's what I like to see - people passing on the savings to be made on ebid to the customer...... and he does have one with "2CV" on it!! Hmmmmmm tempting....
