Just what I don't need angry041:
Daughter called last week to say she is again having problems contacting the bridal shop lady to ascertain that her WD (wedding dress) is there and that we will be able to start the required alteration fitments very soon......
Initially we selected this small bridal shop because of the warm and comfortable feeling we both had about how nice the owner was and how well she was going to look after daughters needs...making me able to relax a little more being over here
Since then the relationship appears to have been going wrong, and neither of us are feeling warm or comforted anymore noooo:
Telephone calls to the shop and/or the owners mobile are going straight to voicemail and msg's being left (increasing in pissed off'ness) aren't being replied to evil:
I have just contacted the WD manufacturer direct this morning and ascertained that although the WD shop told us the dress would be with them latest by the first week of Jan 08 (which is late because it should have originally been there middle of Nov 07 initially) it is still with them and whilst they didn't 100% confirm it I have the definite feeling that the reason it hasn't, as yet, been sent to the WD shop is due to 'credit' issues they are perhaps having with the WD shop rubschin:
I think scary mummy shocked003 needs to breathe her wrath on WD shop owner now and get this sorted cussing:
I do hate it when people tell porkies evil: evil: evil:

Find another dress maker and get the manufacturer to re-route the frock. The person you have been dealing with is most likely going out of business and avoiding both creditors and customers alike. If you have parted with money do not part with more on any promises made in response to your anger but start a separate claim to recover that which has been "stolen" on unfulfilled promises. Take the action now or you will have a bigger disappointment too near to the day to do anything about other than buy something from a Department Store.

Hi LL
Unfortunately, the course of true love etc If you get your hiccups now, all will go smoothly on the day. I have heard that if all goes smooth in the preparation, then hiccups on the day! Know which I would prefer but must be very irritating for you and daughter. So unfair of the shop owner - so do breath your wrath on her and keep us posted. Great advice from Snoopy. By the way, Snoopy, how's the white wine supply today, haven't had a chance to order a drink yet with all these pressing issues . . .

Errrrrrrr .................. It'll be OK (Barman said so)

Errrrrrrr .................. It'll be OK (Barman said so)

Thanks for your advice Mr Snoopy Doops ;)
My feelings exactly, in that I also think the shop owner has a cash flow issue and I'm not happy that our daughter and subsequently me are bearing the problems it is causing angry041:
I have agreed with daughter that we will review the situation again tomorrow once we see whether the SO has responded appropriately BUT even if she has a 'good story' I don't think trusting her to now co-ordinate the alterations and other stuff that still needs to be done before the final event is a good idea noooo: noooo: noooo:
For your kind support have a brandy on the house with your garlic bonio ;D - large glass of white for DRW too ;D plus pass the bottle of red over here for me whistle:

You aren't going to like my next suggestion then.
Buy ANOTHER dress direct from the manufactuer and take dipsy WD shop to small claims court. Daughter is starting to cut it really fine on the alterations front time wise.

You don't want to be responsible for ruining her big day do you?

Said "panicky" daughter here writing to give all you lovely concerned (and not so concerned people!) an update....
Text message received from said WD lady saying that she has been out of the UK this week hence why she has not returned any of my (or LL's) calls. Did say in her text message that I didn't need to panic and that she would call me "later". It is now 7.15pm and I still have not received a phone call from said WD lady....GRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!! Angry9: Am not panicking as I know that Super Mum (aka LL) will help me get this all sorted but am still very very VERY angry!!! (and mildy hysterical eeek:)

Yes BM is correct - tickets booked to return to UK (leave here Fri 18 Jan) to do some serious duffing up (probably) of said WD lady - although now have booked time to call said WD lady in approximately half hour from now and will see whether or not this can be resolved without need for duffing up skills angry041:
Have after many telephone discussions with daughter (who is beautiful and also clever by the way) decided the best plan (as suggested by those of superior intelligence on this forum) to quit the deal and get out as painlessly and (perhaps not) cheaply as possible.

An agreement with WD lady and LL Mummy has been reached smile: following almost 30 minutes calm, reasoned and, on my part, very firm discussion whistle:
Said WD lady agreed the whole situation (from what could have been minor issue to full scale fall out status) could have been avoided if she had acted more responsively and professionally - for future reference of any future brides the outlet is Four Seasons Brides in Old Basinstoke, be warned not to go there scared2:
The two separate agreements reached were:
The 4 bridesmaids dresses and extra material for wraps will be collected by me Tuesday 22 Jan and balance of payment due for these will be made by me
The WD which is now NOT 'the dress' that will be worn by our beautiful daughter is considered cancelled by us from hereon in. What WD lady does with it from here on we frankly don't give a monkeys. There was an initial suggestion by WD lady that it would be fair to split the cost of the balance payment outstanding which was rebuffed by me quickly and succinctly by stating that as we weren't now going to seek legal redress (oh jolly japes still capable of a pun even in these circumstances) for the Ł's we have already lost relating to the deposit paid (back in May 07) and that as she would still have an opportunity to resell it on again and make even profit that suggestion would not be acceptable evil:
There were obviously lots more grovely words from WD lady as to how this has never happened before but as my good friend Rhett would say 'Frankly my dear I don't give a damn'
So onwards and upwards - would love to say as this is an extra visit to old blighty I will try and get to see some of you chappies but I think the 8 day excursion is going to be a tad hectic one way or another as we search for the NEW 'the dress'
Obviously you will have also all worked out by now that this catastrophe has a rolling on impact and won't be surprised to see bar prices rising from today onwards shocked003
Love to you all razz: razz: razz:

Just out of interest Wenchy do you or your neighbours have any pets?
If not then ultrasonics would probably work at keeping them away.

Cats. Not me. The neighbours. One only has one leg. I couldn't do that to him.

Just had a quick google for squirrel deterrents and found this on the RSPB site...
I mixed liberal amounts of chilli powder with bird seed before filling the feeder. Squirrel came down as usual to have a good feed, ever seen a squirrel catapult off a feeder horizontaly? That was last year and they have not been back,at least not to that feeder though the fat balls are demolished with depressing speed. I think the answer is large amounts of chilli powder.
Would a liberal dusting of evil strength chilli powder have a detrimental effect on your bulbs?
-
Cats. Not me. The neighbours. One only has one leg. I couldn't do that to him.
A cat with one leg isn't going to catch a squirrel now is it?

If he's anything like the cat I had as a kid set up a load of remote traps and give him the control. That squirrel wouldnt stand a chance noooo:

The Beggar Maid
Alfred Tennyson
HER arms across her breast she laid;
She was more fair than words can say;
Barefooted came the beggar maid
Before the king Cophetua.
In robe and crown the king stept down,
To meet and greet her on her way;
‘It is no wonder,’ said the lords,
‘She is more beautiful than day.’
As shines the moon in clouded skies,
She in her poor attire was seen:
One praised her ankles, one her eyes,
One her dark hair and lovesome mien.
So sweet a face, such angel grace,
In all that land had never been:
Cophetua sware a royal oath:
‘This beggar maid shall be my queen!’

Not sure how much detail the last update had but the final plan is that I (in full LL garb, tiger skin print and fish nets of course ::)) will on this coming Tuesday 22nd Jan be going to said crappy WD shop to collect the BM dresses and during that visit fence: I will put on the final thumbscrews attempting to gain further advantage over the inept WD lady who has caused sooooooooooooooooooooo much grief and angst this past week, giving her one of my Mummy looks (ask Miss Piggy about those lol:) and suggesting to her that following further 'full' review of the damaging emotional stress cause (blah blah blah blah) it PERHAPS would be pertinent for her to refund part (albeit ALL) of the initial deposit paid for said balls up WD angry041: In a very clam and smooth tone, of course cussing:

As sooth all his cash had then been spent shocked003
But before the sighing gathered crowds
In shiny new and lovely dress
To meet and greet her on her way;
‘It is no wonder,’ said the lords,
‘Miss Piggy is more beautiful than day.’
As shines the sun on this happy day
Miss Piggy in her swanky attire was seen:
One praised her boobs ::) , one her eyes,
One her fair hair and lovesome mien.
So sweet a face, such angel grace,
In all that land had never been:
Mr. Sparky then sware a royal oath:
‘This porcine maid shall be my wife!’
AHhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh - much better ! eyes:
redface: I don't think anyone has every written a poem about me before - well not to my knowledge anyway!
Yes indeedy folks, WonderMum (aka LL) has indeed come to my rescue and sorted out the stupid woman from the WD shop.... (will make sure I take pictures of LL in said WonderMum attire!)
Stress levels are now gradually decreasing and normal service will resume shortly....
As for that "mummy look" LL was talking about - jeez eeek: ...beware any of you that ever encounteer the wrath of LL....that stare is enough to melt steel scared2:(it's even worse than being shouted at and that is pretty scary itself!)
Thanks to all for your practical (and sometime not so practical) comments!! Rest assured there will be no more Miss Piggy tantrums this end!

After trying to catch up on what is going on I am now exhausted noooo:
I thought January was meant to be a quiet month eeek:

Unfortunately the Nick-o-rays started spreading out over the rest of us so normality and quiet were never going to happen Miss D.
HAving said that its good to see you in here again oh merry munchkin eyes:

Miss Piggy must be searching in vain for any mention of a wedding dress within the pile of shite this thread has turned into. noooo:
Pile of shite because having exhausted the news on the wedding dress we have moved on but you want to milk the last details?
Are there any more details?
Not sure how much detail the last update had but the final plan is that I (in full LL garb, tiger skin print and fish nets of course ::)) will on this coming Tuesday 22nd Jan be going to said crappy WD shop to collect the dresses and during that visit fence: I will put on the final thumbscrews attempting to gain further advantage over the inept WD lady who has caused sooooooooooooooooooooo much grief and angst this past week, giving her one of my Mummy looks (ask Miss Piggy about those lol:) and suggesting to her that following further 'full' review of the damaging emotional stress cause (blah blah blah blah) it PERHAPS would be pertinent for her to refund part (albeit ALL) of the initial deposit paid for said balls up WD angry041: In a very clam and smooth tone, of course cussing:
Daughter (aka Miss Piggy) is I believe now much happier and looking forward to mummy hugs early Saturday morning ;D
Wenchy - will PM you my personal UK mobile number so we can coordinate a meet up time. I will have 's cash with me so the first 10 bottles of so will be out of his pocket happy001 Probably looking at either evenings of 24th/25th or 26th Jan

Haven't been in either of those for yonks. haven't been in any Epsom pub for yonks come to think of it, apart from The Rubbing House, which has been mentioned before.
Will put No. 1 cloak in to cleaners tomorrow.

Look on the bright side, they could be mass producing Nick. That would lead to carnage on an unimaginable scale scared2:

I am wondering about having myself cloned eveilgrin:

The factory would self-destruct when the first clone came off the production line.
Nature has to have a balance, requisite number of Wenchys would need to be produced to even things out.

Not sure I want to drink again. I was at the "BoomBoom" club (Sutton United Football club) last night watching Michael Schenker - the only real beer they had was Wells Bombardier and it wasn't the best pint I'd ever had. Still, didn't stop necking about eight of them...my brother went through ten pints of San Miguel sick2:
My ears are still ringing and my stomach is gurgling like a drain..
