Cutting through the gumth,getting straight to the point,not beating around the bush and when wheat sorted form chaff ..... did plumber get paid !!!,if not, put the issuer in prison and lock away the key,98 or not,fed up of folk hiding behind the age,should have known better,at least it will be a short sentence ,to short for the sin of bouncing a check on a plumber, three nanoseconds (or naniseconds) or not !!!

Poor Banks get blamed for everything,was speaking to a bloke the other week who had his house nearly repossessed coz his payments were being credited to a wrong account,spent hours on the phone and writing letters to sort out,broke up his marriage and drove him to drink.All I can say is obviously he should have sent more letters and spent more time ringing the bank on premium rate numbers,easy to pass the buck.... as long as you are not passing through a bank as it will get lost,re directed or turn up with 25 cents missing to cover mismanagement charges.....ect




imho

Subject: Whose spider is that?
Dear Jane, Are you sure this drawing of a spider is the one I sent you? This spider only has seven legs and I do not feel I would have made such an elementary mistake when I drew it.

Hello, I am back and have read through your emails and accept that despite missing a leg, that drawing of a spider may indeed be the one I sent you. I realise with hindsight that it is possible you rejected the drawing of a spider due to this obvious limb ommission but did not point it out in an effort to avoid hurting my feelings. As such, I am sending you a revised drawing with the correct number of legs as full payment for any amount outstanding. I trust this will bring the matter to a conclusion.
Regards, David.

I understand and will definately make a payment this week if I remember. As you have not accepted my second drawing as payment, please return the drawing to me as soon as possible. It was silly of me to assume I could provide you with something of completely no value whatsoever, waste your time and then attach such a large amount to it.
Regards, David.
