Irritations and grievances:

1. Darlows were meant to be bringing some folk around to look at the house at 10.30 this morning, so I made sure I was up and decent, didn't go out on any errands, that the house was halfway presentable &c.

If I were you, Miss Ceri, I would email Argos pointing out this error. It won't take long and they may give you some sort of money off voucher, you never know...if you could also point out that £30 is a lot of money for a polycotton duvet cover, that'd get you some way too. Having said that though, my old light blue duvet cover that Pnos now has is the softest I've ever slept under :)

Oh, and at least you didn't get up this morning to find your cat had shat on the mat. Ok, not on the mat, but still...

Yes. That would strike me as odd: L's vanishing etc.

I'm thinking of you these days, C - I know things are difficult for you right now.

Housingy people are often unreliable!Sounds annoying thou...

That does sound a bit off with your ex housemate but I'm sure its nothing personal.....maybe she was rushing?

Funny you say that about duvet's I bought one in Argos, a while bac, that was listed as one type of tog in the catalogue and turned out to be another when they gave it to me, I only noticed later on.Had to take it back.

Fed up I missed you t'other day, due to my phone, being busy, I could meet you sometime next week to make up for it!Take care xxx

2. It does sound a bit off! How long were you in the shower/upstairs though? Or were they very speedy removals folk? I mean fair enough, if you really had to get going, which they might, then the note sounds fair enough but if that was the case wouldn't you leave an address and/or phone number?! Very weird!! *shrugs* I don't think it's you...

Check your friends list by the way! You have a new friend that is as bright_as_day... ;-)

hmm, i can only guess L was in a hurry, the van man was ultra quick or whatever..i'd feel a bit hurt too though.

echo the thought of emailing - this way you don't have to make Scary Phone Call or schlepp the thing back to argos. worth a shot.

also: will reply to email asap, ta for writing!
