Well done, Pigale!
Sounds just perfect!
And Amazon are a good company to deal with.
I hope you and HP will be very happy together!

ELLE and all,
Are you in the "how very dare you" camp?
And how does "very" get in there?
And does it actually make sense?

Seems to be a fairly new saying, to me.

Hi, Rusty!
It's not an expression I've ever heard before?
So I've just googled it ...apparently it's an expression that Brits are now saying (?!) when they are pretending to be offended! and it comes from the Catherine Tate show!
This is not a show that I have ever watched so cannot vouch for the veracity of that statement!
But seemingly the phrase is used by one of the characters, Derek Faye, in her sketch show?
Maybe someone who has actually seen the show can comment further?

I did not know it came from a TV show!
Always learning!

Sorry, Rusty! I knew Martina and Leander Paes were through to the Mixed Doubles Quarter finals, but I haven't seen them play at all this year - and didn't even know when the match was scheduled!
So it's tomorrow then?
Have you been out with Miss L-Plate already? did you have a good time? (bacon roll or ice-cream?)
If you're free now, Maria is about to start her match against Serena.
I may not get to watch it as my granddaughter should be here in a few minutes.....!
Catch you later.....

~Agreed Doglet, it's a superb company, No 1 in the world for online shopping.

I also sell on Amazon, so far only DVDs that, having watched them, I did not wish to keep. All good stuff.
