We have one disappointed IT guy at the mansion. Irwin buys a lot of stuff on-line from Misco.co.uk and he saw a good deal on a laptop on Thursday. When he checked the delivery dates, he saw Saturday, today, was still on offer despite the world shutting down for the royal weeding yesterday, so he ordered one and told everyone that Misco is a really together company, which can slot things in to windows of opportunity.
The website guaranteed delivery between 7:30 and 12:00 on Saturday. So Irwin got up early to be ready for a delivery lorry sneaking up the drive at 7:31. Did he get his laptop? Is Misco a together company which has a jump on the rest of the on-line businesses . . ? No. It’s just another gang of optimists with a website which writes cheques that the company can’t cash.
p.s. The best royal weeding souvenir? Got to be the Chinese-manufactured mugs with a picture of Prince Harry on them, and he’s labelled “Will” rather than “Wills”. If you’re going to get it wrong, do a proper job of it!
