My aunt got a Blue Willow set for her wedding present. It lasted well, she was still using it in the 90s, nearly 50 years later.

Received a firewire DVD burner from a seller on eBay.
No power supply.
As the seller stated right at the end of the description 'no cables etc' would you reasonably read that as being 'no power supply or firewire cable'?

I'm feeling bloody minded.
I'm asking for my money back.



Just had the refund. :D

Is that jelly and cream in a tea cup?

Not my own choice, but each to their own. And at least you agree on something together. :)

If one is diving so close to the limits that +/- 1% will make a difference then the error has already been made.

I can see that now, but no more relevant than jelly and cream. ;)

My parents have a few huge Willow Pattern dishes - used to serve large roast on for the farm labourers that the ancestors used to employ.

Last night, for the first time, someone said to me 'You're Alex Small? I've seen your photos. Very nice.'
A small validation, but I'll take it!
