dust collectors and other xmas pressies

2/1/12
A friend is worried her son is becoming and will remain chubby as he loves to roost on the sofa...so
instead of buying individual gifts for her 3 kids and husband, she took out a three year hire purchase
agreement on one gift to all of them: a treadmill walking machine , I've been round to see it
and it's huge...but theres only one problem I can identify...it only has a couple of bits on it to hang coats and
damp washing...because that is what it will become I can predict with certainty (having already made this
mistake)... a glorified and inefficient washing line and coat stand...although perhaps i'm being unfair....it will also
make and excellent dust collector! It has receieved a cold reception from the recipients, and will soon be removed from the dining room and relegated to the garage...my friend will persist in encouraging it's authentic use
and will fail just after the money back stage has expired...she will then sell on ebay or in the paper at a substantial loss before the loan is paid off...dear valued reader, do you think I'm a clairvoyant or a bitch?
