Aye Callum. I learnt that too when I preordered Twin Peaks Season 2.... Luckily I realised in time and cancelled my order. Just reordered again and put season 2 in another order. Damn pain though.

I am so glad I finally have holidays! My job is driving me nuts. So many idiots making mistakes! I spent 1 hour today fixing this dizzy tarts mistakes! I really get the impression some people are born without a brain?

I've got horrendous and recurring cramp in my ankle and have had to get up out of my nice warm bed to walk about, dammit!

We have had no central heating in the whole building for 24 hours, since there was a four hour power cut. I wish they'd bloody hurry up and get it fixed, I'm freezing and I gave all my big jumpers to the charity shop!

[Cal Soulshadow]

Can you get a fan heater to tide you over?

[Sally Buttons]

I gave my fan heater and convector heater to the poor!
Bloody poor people!

Christmas Eve.... why is there so much to do? You should be able to sit down and chill out and watch the terrible but good cheesy films on TV, but noooooooooooooooooo. For some reason the whole bloody house needs cleaning.

[Ebony&Markus]

I just finished cleaning the loo. Lovely it was
Hopefully our heating works now. We froze the other day too Sally, but we bought outselves a little electric radiator on wheels, it has oil in it as well so it doesn't use too much electricity. Only costs 25 pounds. Bargain! Well worth it when the heating goes bump.

[angels_and_daemons]

As it was once I removed BC upgrade from the kart it automatically wanted to dispatch my other items - but not in time for Christmas.

Moral of the tale?

Dont pre-order a agame as part of a mass shop

grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

Gets worse than that callum...if they get way more orders than the expected for any item, they start filling the orders on a last placed first served basis so that it doesn't make all their sales statistics look bad. So if the game is hugely popular and Amazon get lots of orders, all the people that have only just bothered to put an order in will take priority over your pre-order...great huh?

Housing asociation want to evict me, and I have no where to go... poo
