The Saga Continues.

SWMBO arrived at Bags house this morning after walking the dog over complete with this box of doughnuts.
They were giving them out free at the station to advertise the new shop.
I thought she had done well to get them back even though it isn't that far.
It turns out she got them at the beginning of her walk and carried the box 2 1/2 miles!!!!

I eventually managed to get a phone number for Peter Vardy's head office and phoned them to kick up shit complain in the strongest terms about the ongoing farce.

A while later I got a call from one of the directors so he got the entire tale as well as me not believing the story about a build up of dust on disc brakes causing damage to the pads. I got the impression he agreed with me.
However, he confirmed that this Derek guy who had been responsible for wasted journeys etc is the Managing Director of the Edinburgh franchise.
It didn't stop him being told to get in touch and get things sorted.

Mid afternoon I got a call from "Derek" who told me there had been a misunderstanding and my car should have been left with the garage in exchange for a courtesy car on Saturday.
Misunderstanding my arse - he had made no arrangement with me or the garage for that (the garage didn't even have a note of me coming in let alone getting a car).

So tomorrow my car is being collected and I am getting a courtesy car while they look at (and hopefully deal with) the scratched windscreen and the damaged paintwork. Certainly "Derek" is expecting it to be away for a few days.

Watch this space for the next instalment of excuses and wriggling to get off the hook/try and get money out of me for their ineptitude.


And yes - the doughnuts are finished ............ a daughter, two monsters and evening guests saw to that.
