Cheers:
To Baby City Albany Staff who have been friendly, kind and efficient every time we've dealt with them.

Jeers:
To Maclaren distributors in NZ who will now be receiving our Buggy for the third time to fix. Tightening wheel nuts and spraying lubricant is not the answer when the customer has already done both and informed you of that

Can I join in?

Cheers to the team at Sanctuary Dental, who put my mind at ease about my teeth after I admitted I hadn't been to the dentist since I was pregnant more than two years ago, and treated me like a rock star instead of a slack dental patient. I scheduled follow-up appointments and I actually mean to keep them. Mostly because they have a massage chair in their waiting room.

Jeers to my local toy hire company, which shall remain nameless, and who charged us $40 each way for delivery and pickup of the play structures we rented for Emma Rose's birthday party. $80 to drive 15 minutes down the road and back!

ooohh me too! I have had some cheers n jeers this week too....

Cheers to the lovely waitress at the cafe in St Heliers where we had lunch today (DH took the day off work - it was lovely!), when Ollie was being a grizzle monster and he "threw" his bottle across the pavement in a tantrum, she was there so quick picking it up and offering to go and sterilise it for us!

Jeers to a large Auckland radiology centre - where I had scheduled an MRI for 1645 so my mum could get over and babysit for the munchking, and after sitting in the waiting room for 45mins after my appointment time, I asked how much longer it would be - to be told I would have to wait at least another 50mins!!!!!!  Promptly informed them that wasnt good enough and they should call me to reschedule - and went home! Grrrr......interestingly enough the bill arrived before they had called to reschedule. Not sure how I got a $900 bill for sitting in the waiting room for 1.5 hours!!!

It's been about 6.5 years since I last went ... maybe I should go there ...?
