I had an unexpected windfall today... sort of....
My good buddies at Hertz (from whom I hired a car when we went away) took a bond and deposit when I set out, and when I returned the car, they said, the bond will be returned to me, but it'll take up to 10 days as "St George are the worst" at processing that sort of thing... Pooey, I said to myself.
Over the weekend I had time to mull over this, and figured, really it shouldnt take more than TWO business days, one for Hertz to notify St George's pooter, and another for St George to process it. So today I rang the bank, and they said, no, Hertz just had to fax them and they'd process it within an HOUR!!!! So then I rang Hertz and they said, OK, we'll do that (it was a different person to the one I spoke to Friday), and lo and behold, about an hour and a half later I had money in my account.
The very weird thing is they returned the bond AND deposit - they were meant to withhold the deposit to pay for the car hire. I was tempted to take the money and spend it all on scrapping supplies, but I have a strong feeling they'll realise QUITE SOON what they've done! Ah well, it's made round to GO round!
Apart from that bit of excitement, my day has been quite tranquil. I scrapped! It was nice. And my hands thanked me for not dunking them in and out of water all day!
Cheerio for now
