Only in Portugal, part zillion

Went to Ourique this morning, ordered what we wanted, they said it would be tomorrow afternoon. Brill, as we need to get some things sorted out tomorrow.

Phone call at 6.30 - what sort of sand do you want? Erm, we ordered grosse this morning - are you sure? do you want fino? No, grosse. Okay.

20 minutes later, it's delivered :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock:

We have to go tomorrow, to pay them 8-) :lol: :lol: :lol:

I think this is the thread I posted on where my post subsequently mysteriously vanished. So I'm posting again to see what happens .....

I'd made a comment along the lines of you'd be lucky to get customer service like that in this country. :|

(See Gal's post etc on WM's Mouse thread ...)

Although we moan, sometimes, Ossie, the Portuguese are the most trusting of people.

That's a nice way to live isn't it Ton? Just makes things so much more pleasant.
