The one with me officially mad

So I'm mad.


In Australia, I discovered the joy of flipping through a scrapbooking magazine. They are aplenty there & sells at a reasonable price. I love flipping through the pages & getting inspiration from the mags.


Back in Singapore, I tried looking for similiar mags, but they are kinda hard to find. So when Ikea offered 15% discount off craft magazines subscription, I asked hubs if I could subscribe. To my delight, (not so suprisingly though, since he always indulges me) he agreed to it. So I have placed my order & sent a cheque over for payment. To my disappointment, 3 weeks later, no confirmation has been done. First no easy payment online, payment has to be done by cheque. By snail mail no less. Then the title I wanted has ceased publication. So I chose another 2 more. Same problem, publication ceased. So I got another 3 alternatives. Mind you, I am getting rather desperate here. I want my magazine! And now, no reply. *#@#@!!


I am officially mad. I mean...if publication has ceased, last year, why is the title still featured on your webpage? And since you are offering goods & services, then the onus is on you to provide accurate, up-to-date information! Not forgetting prompt replies to enquiries. Some companies just don't get it, do they?!


Anyway, I decided to give that lady a day's time to get back to me. After which, I'm calling her direct & I don't think I'll go easy on her then. I don't like being mean & nasty, but sometimes you gotta be so to get things done. Why like that?


K. Enough of that. On to happier stuff. Been busy with monster Kate & spanish lessons. Finally my class has started & every tuesday night its been fun learning the new exotic language. It's hard though, but it's been exciting. Pictures & more updates soon. Bout Kate, of course!
