So....there is a saying about best laid plans....I sometimes wonder why I get out of bed....
Ordered the new power tools, tool boxes, hand tools etc etc etc......Makita brand...yesterday.
Email this morning from the supplier that the Makita kit has an issue (not disclosed what) and would a second option fit the bill?
Einhell....impact/drill/driver boxed with battery and charger plus 70+ assorted drill bits and driver bits.....because of the inconvenience, 25% off list price.
Hmmmmmmmmmmmmm........did a bit of a Google (seen the TV adverts for Einhell that are filmed at Bayern Munich stadium and the firm sponsors Bayern Munich too but that is about it). Reviews seem very good...not just customer reviews but also the expert ones.
Okey dokey......
Yep....I can go with that as a replacement. So tomorrow the Einhell impact/drill/driver kit, plus 3 lockable/stackable empty, foam lined Einhell toolboxes, plus an assortment of hand tools and safety gear will be arriving by courier.
Then the curtains and curtain pole decided to thow a curveball at me.
Curtains literally went out of stock whilst I was typing my debit card into the box......OK so I shall go with just the pole and hunt down suitable curtains elsewhere.......blow me down with half a ton of feathers, the pole went out of stock too.
A few expletives of the very unladylike fashion later and another store has a slate grey wooden curtain pole....3.6m....perfect. Same store has 90"x90" charcoal eyelet curtains....2 pairs......perfect. They will be arriving tween tomorrow and Saturday.
Best laid plans and all that....pppffffftttttttttt
