A day of rest

After nearly 2 continuous weeks work it was time for a bit of a rest. We needed to go to Thonnon to get more snow hooks and make a visit to a nearby friend . Thonnon was as difficult as ever. There seemed to be some confusion over quantity. I asked for 50 hooks, the chap seemed to think we wanted 50 boxes of 100, and that they would take a week to arrive. Then there was some question of colour. After a long pause, the chap wrote a number on a piece of paper and sent us to the warehouse. There a fork lift truck driver found a box of 50 grey hooks just as we required. Next they charged us for 100, then seemed to reprogramme the computer in order to refund some money in cash. I wish they was a screwfix.fr
