I only live about 4 miles from Old Basing where I think you said the shop is. Me and the "Mrs" have been together 19 years now and have never got around to tying the knot. Just in case she pops the question on the 29th, would you recommend the shop

I am certain that Mrs JOM is a lovely lady but to be on the safe side I suggest getting up very early on Feb 29th and going fishing on the Basingstoke Canal for the day .... returning only once midnight has struck and the date has become 1st March.
Complicated perhaps but far safer than saying "No Thanks" which would result in angry041: folowed by fence: and then ec;
It is finally sorted ;DNo doubt we will be investing the refund in a fisheye lens? eyes:
The saga went on (for those of you who are interested No:) during and after my frantic dash back to the UK as follows:-
She (WD shop lady) was supposed to ensure the dress was available to us to review before I came back to CY. Surprisingly that didn't happen.
First email after my return asking she for my deposit back earned a response of no way but an agreement that she would send the dress anyway to daughter at no additional cost.
When the dress eventually arrived it was clear that it was the 'display' dress as the label had been cut out, it was the wrong back fastening and was three sizes too big.
I contacted the manufacturer and confirmed that daughters 'real' dress was still with them, as it had been since Nov and still couldn't be sent out to she because she hadn't paid for it.
Stinkingly stroppy email from me then to she DEMANDED that she immediately refund my deposit or I would take every possible action to retrieve not only my original deposit but all other associated expenses incurred since then, giving her a specific deadline on deposit return angry041:.
Received response from she stating that provided the deposit return would be consider in full and final settlement she would comply with the rquest to refund the full depsoit and, oh by the way' feel free to sell the 'display' dress on ebay or similar rubschin:
First deadline for return of deposit missed with lame excuse from she and new, week later, deadline set
2nd deadline for full return of deposit paid was met eeek: eeek: eeek:
Have spoken this morning with the manufacturer who have confirmed that if we want to sell on the 'display' dress they have no problem with that and that they are now also in the process themselves of taking she to the courts for non payment !
So does any one want/need a reasonably priced WD ???
Offers now being accepted whistle:
Do you really, really think so? point:no... noooo:
After the helicopter fiasco I doubt it very much!It's size 14 apparently... whistle:
I'd love the dress but having seen the size of Miss Piggy I doubt very much that I could even get it over my head. noooo:
