well having been sent stuff " from germany" i didnt want or need i done the right thing "def gettin old" and emailed them about their error,,tday email bk saying there was a mix up at the warehouse and the stuff was meant for trend micro in cork and they were tryin to contact that customer to see if he has my rain pants but were having trouble cuz they only have his mothers house address in germany ,but they gave my number to the contact so he can contact me here,,,,heres were it gets spooky my best mate works in trend micro and knows that same biker to see so failing him contacting me ill be able to get on to him myself and hopefully get my rain pants ,,,now is it just me or does all this seem like something out of the twilight zone ,,,,,,,,SMALL WORLD HUH[/size]
