I ordered paint, brushes and rollers at the end of March. The delivery was 3 - 5 days. Then when the order was placed this became 7 - 10 days due to Coronavirus (fair enough). The next i heard it was going to be the 25th April. The brushes and rollers arrived - no paint. What use are brushes and rollers without paint. The next correspondence stated I could collect from a branch on 27th April if I wanted. I couldn't get to the branch, so have I waited for the delivery. A week later still no paint - the other half is suggesting that if I don't get the paint soon we'll have put the house on the market, sold it and moved and the new owners (or possibly the ones after that) will have a surprise delivery of paint they didn't know they had ordered.
There is definitely frustration in the household. It has been suggested that she who must be obeyed might find somewhere for her to put the brushes and rollers, which will cause me difficulty in walking, let alone painting.
So here I am waiting for the goods to arrive and am thinking it might be quicker to just go toe B and Q or Wickes as they are now open again.
Will I ever see the paint that I paid for?
Will sterling still be legal tender when it does arrive?
How many children will Boris have between now and then?
Will Prince William have ascended to the throne?
When my grandchildren ask what I did during the great corona crisis of 2020, I will be able to tell them 'nothing, I sat waiting for paint to arrive'.
They used to say that it was boring watching paint dry. I wouldn't know - I haven't seen any to know how long it takes to dry. I bet it would be quicker than the time it takes to deliver.
When it does arrive, if it ever arrives, I bet the colour will look nothing like that on the website.
It's no good. I think I am going to go down the garden and eat some worms.
Marvin the Andriod was not as depressed as this paint saga is making me. Here I am, brain the size of a planet...............
