Thank you

Hi,
I was a complete idiot, I spent 8.5k on a kitchen from mfi and all I have had from them is %$"&.
The kitchen was discontinued, I was told 10 days before delivery after having it on order for 10 weeks! Then half of it didnt turn up after I was given a substitute - The reason being........Every other person who had this kitchen was given the same one and ran out!
I have no kitchen, upset family, and all mfi do is fob me off telling me it will be there in a few weeks. They dont care, they lie and continually make FAKE promises, they have stopped me calling the store I bought it from the number has been disconnected, you now have to go through an 0844 number @ 10p a minute!!
I was on the phone to them earlier for almost an hour - not because I wanted to but BECAUSE THE DELIVERY DID NOT TURN UP!!
I went into the store and was confronted by a man shouting at a salesman saying he had the same thing.
I hear loads of people are having the same, Are they going bust?
Your experiences!

I would like to take both lettuce and caterpillar out to the garden, but the lettuce, having no roots, would not support the caterpillar for long. Fortunately there was another lettuce from our organic delivery to go with our pizza tonight. Can it only eat lettuce or can it also eat other green plants or grass?

How do you keep all the regular grass out of your monkey grass? Mine is surrounded by sidewalk and the grass doesn't even come in contact with it but grass is always somehow getting all in there. Is there some way to stop this?

My garbage can smells hurrendous, I am able to smell it by just walking outside. I tried using pin-sol and Palmolive dish soap, but nothing is working. Do you have any ideas?

I am moving into a small studio. The main area is a large regtangle. There is a full wall of built in bookcases along the far narrow wall. Directly in front of that is a built in platform bed. Currently the bookcase wall, bed and all of the main room trim is painted a peachy color. The walls are your typical apartment off white/egg shell color. My furniture is black and my accent color is red with some sage green. All of my wood furniture is a natural cherry color. What color should I have the bookcase, trim and bed painted. I am leaning towards either bright white or the same color as the walls. Any ideas?

We have a monkey puzzle tree in our yard that is starting to go to seed on a few of the branches. As I understand it there is up to 100 seeds in a single pod / branch end.The interesting thing about this to me is that apparently they are selling for up to five bucks a seed on e-bay..... NICE....!!

It seems to be coming from the back somewhere, it's definitely not something inside like food or anything. There is nothing on the floor or in the back; I have wiped down the fridge several times and it kinda goes away for almost an hour then returns. I don't know what else to do...

You know... it comes with like 5, 10, sometimes 15 year warranty (against weeds). What a joke! I've never had fabric that my dandilions & crabgrass weren't able to break through in 3-6 months. I've always been lazy to bother complaining. But I think now I'm sufficiently mad to actually do it. Has anyone done this before? Any tips?

Are you happy with yours? I'm not looking to spend $1,000 or anything like that, but something under $500 would be nice. Thanks.
