Did you see the ones with nudes and pejorative writing? I definitely missed my calling during lockdown. During all this time I should have been chained to my sewing machine and whipping up wonky and exorbitantly priced tablecloths.Camillehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14278577270209960567noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-860373600653353661.post-79537669479643666642021-04-20T10:15:00.722+02:002021-04-20T10:15:00.722+02:00No use for tablecloths these days, and those I do ...No use for tablecloths these days, and those I do have are, like YAM's, folded away. I must say that those on the website look just plain boring, and the yellow stripes remind me of outdoor awnings I used to have.<br />That really is most annoying about the lamps, especially as you paid so much extra for packaging and careful handling. <br />Inca hopes Sophie is OK after her visit to the vet. She wants to warn Sophie that I resorted to subterfuge last Friday, when she was due at our vet for the first of her annual shots. I parked quite a way from the building and we went walk about before her appointment, so she didn't know where we were headed until the last minute. Too late to back out when she realised where we were, and she still considers this a mean and underhand trick. She hopes that Sophie doesn't have to put up with something so devious!Coppa's girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16459503600694841117noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-860373600653353661.post-72860370411485032872021-04-20T09:31:31.678+02:002021-04-20T09:31:31.678+02:00This post reminds me of my brother and sister-in-l...This post reminds me of my brother and sister-in-law's saga with travertine floor tiles. To cut a long story short, after interminable delays in getting the tiles laid in the kitchen of the old Derbyshire farmhouse, within two weeks of them being installed the tiles were looking worse for wear due to muddy poodle paws and the porous nature of the tiles. Last I heard, at a cost of an extra £500, a specialist company had provided a sealant to protect the tiles. The floor does, however, look gorgeous in the photos I've been sent.<br />Best of luck with the pool.<br />Cheers! Gail.

Although, hopefully, the pool man will also show up again soon and the lamps can be replaced without too much bother. I'm with Yam on the tablecloths. I like them, but they seem to replicate while stored in the cupboard - I look forward to "someday" using them again.Lisa in Francehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06080757130655335246noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-860373600653353661.post-65511118845613089222021-04-20T07:03:59.336+02:002021-04-20T07:03:59.336+02:00Hari OM

Did Angus offer a counter-gerundive adjective for the deliverer's attitude?! I do hope refund/replace is not to onerous.
