... for the DVLA to send the paperwork for my personal number plate. This is just a bit annoying as I've now got to the end of the week's free insurance arranged by the garage and have to insure the car myself on it's current plate, only to have to do it all over again when the plates are changed - at a cost of course.
Also still waiting for the nice folks at DeLonghi to get our coffee machine back to us. It's been away since Monday, so I would have thought there might be a chance of having it returned by the end of the week. Really disappointed with the way things have worked out with this machine. If DeLonghi have anything about them they will surely offer us a replacement machine if there is any doubt whatsoever about this one? Or maybe not!
Going shopping this morning - hopefully before the downpours that are forecast for later on today. After that, it'll be back to modelling stuff for the retirement cake - it's going to be a beaut!!

If that machine is repaired, you're always going to wonder, aren't you. DeLonghi joins Ba and Marveaux...
ReplyDeleteBy the way, the cake was the star of the graduation. One of his friends had opened the box out of curiousity, not knowing what it was and exclaimed "Help ma Boab, its Neil in a box!" (that was my Oor Wullie Scots accent)
News of the cake quickly spread to other mums and even lecturers who came to introduce themselves after the latin ceremony and they had all seen pictures of it on camera. So....your cake has become something of a celebrity in Aberdeen (of all places). They probably deep fried it after Wendy left (ha ha ha)
