Fab result for me - my sis & family hadn't been over for 12yrs - me bruv & kids also came over, & the old man, who was a shining star (84) at the old charrards - done a case of dlicious red - kids have demolished all my beer - tonight it felt like a real family - Happy Everything to you & Yours.

Its nice to get together as a family. We were invited to a pub Xmas night, i thought that will be nice as had sat there with our boys, doing what boys do best ...getting pissed. i was the driver as usual. when we got there a big tele was on and we had to watch their pantomime they did in June. almost two hours of torture, the sound was s**t, dancing s**T. there's me sober as a judge trying to look interested and everyone else ( drunk ) taking the piss. most embarrassing.
brought the missus a sat nav from currys in sheffield while we were up there for a weekend.
when she opened it on xmas day, it was missing from the box!
took it back to currys in hemel, to be told, "take it back to where you brought it"
yeah right, all the way back to sheffield? i don't think so

F**k dan that's a first ...a lost sat nav. maybe it will find itself :laugh:
joking aside i wouldn't leave the shop till they replaced it m8. the store man is on to a good thing a? We was doing suspended ceilings in a warehouse years ago. temptation got the better of me, i took the drills and bits out of the boxes and replaced them with a brick and a nail. imagine their faces when the customers opened the box. Naughty i know but I'm only human :;):

to be honest, i don't know and the missus can't remember in her haste to open it.
how many of us open every last box when we brought something before we left a shop?
We have contacted watchdog, and are awaiting a reply, failing that, a relative is a solicitor.
When he told us to go back to sheffield where we brought it, i should have said, " i can't i dont have a sat nav to get me there!!"
Stupid thing is, i boycott all the big electrical stores becasue of this sort of thing, and i stupidly thought it would be okay.
Always buy from the small shop.

I told them it would cost me more than that to exchange it, and even if i did go there, they cannot guarantee me a replacement. You cannot phone a currys store direct. oh and their customer helpline is answered by "foreign" sounding people. yet another call centre in india!??!
wathc this space for a fight and a half!

my auld fella bought another sat nav,and lo and behold the language was preset to norwegian (or summat weird)
he was at his wits end with it but i managed to get it back to english, chances are someone had had a play with it before it was sold
