this isn't worth your time...
A was telling me today how when she posts, she takes a little event that happened that day and makes a little entertaining story about it. me? well i just jump on and start talking shyte. today is no different.
late fees my friends.. late fees. is it really such a difficult concept? you hire the item and pay for a set period of time you can have it. you keep that item for longer than you originally pay for and therefore pay the excess fee for which you kept the item. now correct me if i'm wrong, but if you hire something that has 'overnight' written on it in on a fluro yellow sticker (it aint so subtle my friends) and you have said item in your home for oh i don't know 3 or 4 days... are you or are you not aware that their will be a penalty fee owing once returned. and considering you avoid the establishment for the following 3 months hoping the fee will magically deteriorate over time and get your wife to join so you can use another card (obviously you know its there), why would you be not only "surprised" but also abusive to random staff when the establishment sends you a 'courtesy reminder' that you have outstanding fees.
*sorry, just received a phone call from the staff RE: stupid abusive man with late fees*
good news for trip - relatives rang dad and said i can stay with them for a week or two in sicily and they'll take care of me. in italian terms that means not allow me to pay for anything and take me around the island to all the best spots. one of them even speaks english (woohoo). i'm still working on getting the beach house off them without them feeling as though they have to come stay in it with me (thats what they did with mum and dad). A is first on the list as potential room mate... also decided that i'll definitely get a eurail pass and hope i don't go broke before i can use it.
