May Homeart’s staff be blessed
21 Dec, 2009 01:00 AM
SHOPPING in Centro Lavington recently, I noticed a six-piece outdoor setting on display.
I had no hope of Santa squeezing this down the chimney I don’t have, so I decided to purchase same to replace my ancient setting.
With visions of somehow having it delivered to my place of abode, I approached Homeart to make my purchase, but horror of horrors I discovered it was all packed up in a huge cardboard box, with all the screws and men’s business bits and pieces to assemble.
The staff girls noticed my look of horror and informed me, no worries, they would deliver and assemble the setting for me after work.
Have I been into the Christmas pudding brandy or maybe my hearing was failing?
No, it’s true, they arrived at arranged time, plus one of the girl’s husbands.
Twenty minutes later, all was assembled and off they went taking the king-size box and packaging with them.
Who needs Santa and his helpers when we have angels like this around?
May they be blessed and have a very happy Christmas and New Year.

My goodness. I got all the way through to the writer's name feeling puzzled that
ReplyDeletea) Lavington Homemart deliver to Marrickville
b) you had taken receipt of new outdoor furniture and I knew nothing about it.
The penny has dropped. Lets diss the Border Mail some more - this shit's entertaining!
