The gadget arrived for the TV so that I could watch instead of reading sub-titles. Also a very loud alarm clock.
A pal came here to set the tv thing up. It didn't work for me at all, so disappointed. But Andy set the alarm. He said I will need a degree in Rocket Science to operate it. He plugged it in behind my bedside cabinet.
I had kept the box so packaged the tv thingy. Then went to alter the alarm clock time and couldn't even press the pads. I tilted the cabinet forward to take the plug out and a drawer slid out onto my shin, at the same time the table lamp toppled over onto the glass cabinet top and chipped a lump out of the glass. (Now repaired with clear nail varnish). I repacked the clock, and rang the seller and got a number to use on the return form, which I managed to download and print. Put the parcel in the car for post office and dropped car key between the drivers seat and centre console. I came in got the torch and squeezed into the footwell. I couldn't even see it. Banged my head on the steering wheel coming back out !
Found spare key and drove to a garage where they know me. He laughed and came out and opened the back door. I said, no it was in the front. He put his hand under the back of the front seat and handed me the key and laughed alot.
I then went to the post office - £7.95 for second class parcel delivery. When I got home, there was an email from the seller telling me there is a charge of £15 from my refund for restocking items. It was there in very very tiny print.
So my try to get into a modernised deaf peoples world failed dismally and cost me the money to pay friend for time spent here. £7.95 to send goods back, and a £15.00 charge. Ah well, all part of lifes rich tapestry. I couldn't make this day up. !!!! Mrs Bouquet
