RE: Hannah - Disney problems

[Guest guest]

Thanks very much Francesca, I might find their head office number and see

what they can do. Surely someone must know what goes where! The Guildford

store didn't seem the slightest bit bothered that I would return the other

ones. Hope you have a great time away and if I get really stuck I'll let

you know about Tunbridge Wells. I'll try to find out where else they are

closer to me first.

Is it worth asking them to ring around other Disney stores - they

might be keener if you say you're going to have to return the other

pair. Or I could look in Tunbridge Wells if you like - but not until

next week as off to Tenerife 2moro!

I can't remember exactly where you are Hannah but there's one in Reading.

We got 's birthday pressie in the Disney Store on the Champs Elises, a

Jessie Doll from Toy Story 2. Price in pounds £12.99, price in Francs 45FF

(equivalent to £4.50). I checked on one in the Reading store when we got

back and the pricing was exactly the same, weird because everything else

seemed to be an exact exchange.

Thanks Cerys, I'd forgotten about Reading - I hate getting lost there so

tend not to go, but when I do I quite like the shops! I will also retry

Kingston as my mum lives close, and Aberdeen again as I can ask MIL to go.

I'm in Fleet so can get to Kingston, Guildford or Reading quite easily,

depending on the children and I don't really want to go with them as I want

them to have surprises.

We're still in the " believe in Father Christmas " mode which I like. I was

in Fleet the other day when DS1 saw the new Bob video. He made a big fuss

because I didn't buy it, so I had to explain that Father Christmas might

bring it for him. He was in floods of tears that FC might *not* bring it

(he already has because it's in a cupboard at home!), so I thought I'd

better do the " you're very lucky because some children don't get any

presents at Christmas time " lecture. This completely confused him because

why would Father Christmas not take presents to some children? I got myself

well and truly up a blind alley with that one ;o))

Tell me about it! I got in a lovely conversation with DS1 aged 8 about the

Franchise for Bob the Builder stuff and why FC could not make it and why FC

would have to go and buy it.

The lady walking along side was in stitches at the pickle I was getting

myself into!

Jack was very quick to point out that he DOES still believe in FC!

Especially after I told him that children who did not believe did not get

presents.
