Today I managed to buy Linus' gift but had a baaaad shopping experience. I hadn't realised how things work at Argos though. I checked that they had what I wanted in stock and off to Lewisham I went. Arriving at the store I realised I had to find the item I wanted in the catalogue. I sought it here, I sought it there and I couldn't find it despite eventually going as far as looking through the whole catalogue page by page. I tried to get help from the cashiers but they just handed me another catalogue. I ended up phoning my parents who looked the item up on the internet and voilà. Of course then there was the small matter of my visa not working (I havn't got a chip on my card). Then the item was twice as expensive as advertised on the net (but I couldn't be bothered by then). Then on the way home, eating a nectarine, I got fruit juice all over my clothes and even the window of the DLR. Not my day. (How about that - a riveting story.)
