Musings on a world I am no longer sure about
Scam sillyness
Ordered a new mobo 2 weeks ago from Scan - they said “shipped on Monday” so I got to Monday, took Tuesday at home, was told Monday at 7pm that there was a problem with Tuesday and that they were sorrry, but whenever it was shipped it would still be next day delivery...
Heard nothing for a week.
Last Monday I emailed them to say “get it here this week or refund me”
Grovelling apology on Tuesday, with a promise that it’d been made a priority and had been marked for someone’s attention, etc - and then nothing.
Mailed Saturday saying “fine, don’t bother, refund meh”
Reply this morning saying “Order cancelled, refund will be processed ASAP”
Email 1 hour later saying “Order at stage 3 of 4 - it’s been picked, should be shipped today”
fuckwits

Creak creak
Bleh. My bike is all creaky
I have no idea what part of it is at issue either, although I suspect it’s not the part Halfords seem to think it is.
Watched more of B5 S2 last night with James...I was feeling crappy and so went to bed early...James stayed the night because he was feeling too ill to go home. Lots of very strange dreams - one of which involved staying the night in a house with lots of friends, another involved racism, Americans and playing baseball in my gran’s garden. My brain appears to be odd
Decided, after I woke up all on my own at 6:20, to get up anyway - so I left for work at bang on 7:30, figured it’d mean I could get there at a reasonable time, regardless of creaks. Arrived at London Bridge in time to get a delayed train to Brighton. Figured it’d get me there even earlier. Didn’t count on the logic of the freaks that run Thameslink - it was changed to fast at Gatwick...waited about on platform 5 for 5 minutes before realising that the next train wasn’t going to arrive until almost 9 and I might as well cycle - which I did - from Gatwick.
I think I might have got lost too, but I’m not 100% sure. Still, I got to the office on time
Rest of the guys are either on holiday or on a ship visit today. So it’s very quiet round here...and I don’t really have very much to do today either - so I’m going to restructure the templates and chill out.
Without food...as I forgot my wallet. D’oh!
