Guess The Outcome
« on: May 23, 2011, 09:29:05 AM »
I've just picked up an Amazon delivery from the post office.

It is either: -

a) A Network attached storage server that will replace my file server and music server.
b) A Pétanque set.

Either way the box has been crushed to a fraction of its original size...

So I either have a Pétanque set with a crushed case or a worthless pile of electronic components...

Wot thinketh you? Shrugs:

Let's hope it's just a crushed case, though knowing your luck...

I hope you signed for it and noted on the receipt that the package was badly damaged ..... or they'll claim you dropped it and then ran over it.

No... in Limassol you have to sign for it before they retrieve it...  redface:

Anyhoo...

It turned out to be the Pétanque set AND the QNAP in the same box...

The Pétanque set had burst the zip on its holdall (now repaired) and the QNAP looks perfect...  cloud9:

Pétanque = about the only game you can play on gravel. V popular with the French




QNAP = More toys for BM
