C is for compromise

Well the battle with Toshiba continues but it seems we may have reached an agreement ,
Not so much an outright victory as a first class example of compromise engineered with linguistic skills plus a considerable apptitude in Denglish.
The replacement laptop ( Tecra S1 ) is not new but a showroom model used within their system !!!! But----- They will say yes to a two year warranty .
Called the Gorilla and he said "go for it " , Mariese said hmmmm not sure but better than before , Les in UK said the unprintable and gave me the address of a UK watch dog ..Finally to Huntsman lol
More sunshine . He never changes ! He thought same as Gorilla ( both Irish , both male )However the thought of my getting the guy from Toshiba in a corner seemed great to him..All be it metaphorically .
More re my coats etc etc . Well it made a change from pc's.
Back to Toshiba . Hmmmm year as of yet not known .
Herr X got quite jovial this call . Could be the end is in sight .
Hope so.
Now all thats left to say is "Watch this space"
Tried to find a picture of a Tecra S1 to post but clearly need more tuition from Gorilla .......If anyone has one please send to me ........
