Don't Panic Mr Mallering

  1. Mrs Mervyn sensibly ordered all her Xmas Day food from Waitrose,about 2 weeks ago,to be delivered this morning.Main item was a special stuffed joint of pork to feed about 8 people.
    Order arrived this morning on schedule-no stuffed joint to feed 8 but an ordinary pork joint to feed about 3 people.However they made up for it with about 5 million stuffing balls.
    Mrs Mervyn was very polite to the Waitrose man and asked how they could be so remiss in not ringing first and explaining their mess up.Twenty minutes later another joint of pork turns up for us.:Arghh:
    Mrs Mervyn is now re scheduling her cooking times and stuffing the freezer with all sorts of sausages,stuffing,etc.
    I have taken some happy pills and am hiding under the stairs.:(
    Very Happy Christmas to you all and a hassle free holiday.:upyeah:

  7. Do what I do Mervyn totally ignore the whole filthy business, nothing to do with Christmas whatsoever in my house.

    Just heard 21st Century schizoid man by King Crimson on Radio 6 , a favorite of mine from the 70's and had to smile over the line " nothing his got he really needs"
