    Hmmm spare a thought for how the man may feel.. He just spent
    E250 on three Argos catalogues....:rolleyes:

    And to say that the rogue who conned him approached him on
    the street and offered him a laptop (top of the range apparently)
    at just a quarter of the original price????

    Whatever happened to common sense??

    Do the catalogues arrive bundled with the molasses slow staff from the store?

    Slow is not the word for the staff in Argos in Kilkenny. I went in there one day for some stuff and I needed to shave by the time I got served. :)

    Fortunately Argos have an extensive range of razors, trimmers and other depilatory solutions (depending where you felt required trimming after your wait )

    The front of the catalogue clear suggests you should bring flask, packed lunch and sleeping bag

    Oh and always tell some one where you're going so they won't report you as missing
