"we were refused a refund" ( from your first post). That does rather imply that you sought one?

Absolutely

Anyone like to have a guess at what style or period of costumes this production at the new Brighton Open Air Theatre will be using?

I can see the complaint now: "The title states that the play is about nothing, yet something happened. I'd like a refund or I'll scweam and scweam and make mythelf thick".

Given that Sheikh Speare was an Arab, I'd have thought that a traditional production would have featured thawb and keffiyeh.

And one mustn't forget:



made in response to:

Sounds like Schrodinger's refund to me. Maybe the play was Copenhagen?

Incidentaly the film / tv version of that is very good. Though perhaps I should get a refund as Danny Kaye wasn't in it.

I don't know, it could be that there is ado but not so much as to accord with the complainants' definition of much.

Titular literalism can be tricky like that.

I went to see "As you like it" but I didn't like it at all, so can I get a refund ?

I went to see "Taming of the Shrew", which was devoid of any attempt to domesticate a small rodent.

Absolutely

So, for the benefit of those of us who are now terminally confused, could you possibly explain in what respect:

The refund claim was untrue....

I contacted that company Screwfix and they were useless. Apparently they aren't and never were a dating agency

Well quite right too, a shrew isn't a rodent as any fule no

I have never stated a refund was received, others however have made untrue claims that I did

 

[ufkacbln]

Really? Where?

When I post the evidence will you have the decency to apologise?

 

[Profpointy]

Really? Where?

That might have been me. I was misinformed by Cunobelin that he had asked for a refund and that trading standards had backed him. That caused me to "lie and make stuff up" (his words) by stating he'd had a refund.

And there's me saying I'd leave off this now silly argument - lieing again I guess

WELL DONE...... now replace "I was misinformed" to I was wrong, and we are getting somewhere

Apologise for what? You've made a claim and I'm suggesting you evidence it.

If as shown I didn't make the claim, then this :

He has a bad memory and couldn't remember the fib he'd told earlier? What is it Judge Judy* says...?








*Yes, I know, I know....

Of course I don't expect an apology
