🚨 Consider this your friendly public service announcement: maybe give a miss. 🚨
Apparently, delivering kitchen units 2.5 miles down the road now costs £200. At that price, I assumed they’d be arriving by helicopter… but sadly not. 🚁💸
Then, when the units finally turned up, they were the wrong sizes. Impressive, considering their team had already visited TWICE to measure everything. You’d think by visit number two we’d all be singing from the same tape measure. 📏😂
Thankfully, I’ve got an amazing team who are experts at turning disasters into solutions. Although I can’t pretend that the latest surprise wasn’t the final nudge towards a well-earned glass (or three) of wine. 🍷🍷🍷
So to recap:
✅ Expensive delivery
✅ Wrong-sized units
✅ Poor communication
✅ Unnecessary stress
The only thing fitted perfectly was my wine glass in my hand at the end of the day. 😂
Do better, Howdens.
