I thought that I would add this footnote to my last week's post, in which I explained, in fairly forthright terms, my dilemma with regard to the sending of a painting to France.
Parcelforce are now doing their best to locate this parcel, and have allocated an employee called Sharon to attend to the problem. I wish her good fortune in her endeavours.
In the meantime, Chronopost Roissy, the firm in whose hands the package was last located, have contacted the person to whom I was sending it, and have informed him that they are sending it back to me. Yeah! Why, for goodness's sake (they obviously have his contact details), couldn't they just have delivered it to him, which is what they were paid to do in the first place? I smell a big French rat here - some pitiful attempts at setting up a smokescreen around the fact that they have lost the parcel, and they are hoping that they can just cover up the whole thing.
But if they think they can do that, they don't know me very well - n'est ce pas?
