  • A useful excuse

    Me: Hi, We’ve been trying repeatedly for two weeks to process your order but we still can’t get your card details to go through. I can’t hold the item any longer so I’m just going to cancel the order.Her: Sorry, I was just at this big fire in Wollongong and my wallet fell into a…
