clo_againI need to start using my actual-name email address for buying stuff online. Calling customer support for things and verifying that your email address is indeed "cloudymagic at suchandsuch" never fails to make me feel about thirteen and ridiculous.
On a different note, it would be nice to call customer support for something one day and get someone with a British accent. It really would. The guy on the phone just now repeated my trainline reference back twice to me and aside from the fact he did the fox-lima-alfa bollocks instead of just saying the letters - newsflash people, IF *I* SAY THE LETTERS THEN KNOW THAT REPEATING IT AS WORDS MAKES MY LIFE MUCH HARDER KTHNX - his accent made it much trickier.
He reconfirmed my details twice and seemed a little confused too, so I hope I'll actually be able to pick my tickets up on Friday or I won't have a return ticket from London and will have to stay there forever.
:D
