The New Website

We're all official now!

Well almost, we're just waiting on confirmation but www.countryart.org.uk is on it's way into business.

I've also just come back from a few days in Budapest, Hungary. It wasn't the best holiday but it was nice. Everything was closed due to the closed season and the weather wasn't great and I'd really hoped to get a few good pictures with my new camera (I'll come to that). In the end it pretty much ended up being a lost booze cruise.

Anyway about the camera. I'd ordered a new Sony A100K Digital SLR from John Lewis on the Friday and paid the extra for Saturday delivery so I would have it in time for the flight on Sunday. I waited in all Saturday and nothing came so I called John Lewis who basically said that they don't have a number to call Home Delivery Network, and that they couldn't do a thing so I was screwed but they would call me the next day to tell me more about being screwed. The next day I didn't get a call so I phoned them back to see if I could collect on from the Liverpool store and they could call ahead for me. No as they're different groups. Brilliant now I have no camera.
I told the agent that I wanted it delivered on Thursday when I was back and I wanted a 1GB memory card for the problems. So I waited in again all day and nothing so I called them and apparently it was delivered on the 19Th but obviously not to me so I'm currently £400 down and camera less.

Watch this space......
