Vacuflo Hide-a-Hose Blues: Monday, October 12th!

Life is a four-letter word. -Lenny Bruce, comedian and social critic (13 Oct 1925-1966)


Hi Val and Al! Trust you both enjoyed the Thanksgiving weekend. We certainly did. We are now scrambling to ready ourselves for our coming trip to India. We fly out of Vancouver on October 27th, (back on December 11th), but will drive into city this coming Friday as we will be volunteering at the Vancouver Writers Festival, the week before we take off.

This being the case, very close friends of Pam and Greg, Louise and Henryk, have very kindly agreed to house-sit while we are away and I have Shanghaied Henryk into installing the in-house system we bought from you this past summer. Finally got around to trying the hose to see how far it would reach, based on where we'd like to have outlet and it is everyone's opinion that the 50' length would be the one we'd like. The 40' length just barely reaches into the far corners of our master bedroom so Corinne's shoes will be covered in dust if we don't have the extra 10'!

I'm hoping that I can return, via Greyhound, the 40' hose which has not been used, other than on the layout tryout today, and have you send us the 50' hose. Of course, we will pay the additional cost of the longer hose and any applicable re-stocking fee. I have some of the mailing labels from earlier shipments and assume this is the mailing address to use with Greyhound. I hope this arrangement is fine with you. Let me know, at your earliest convenience, and we'll plan accordingly. The carton is ready to be taken to the bus depot so we'll ship it as soon as we've heard how to proceed. Thanks, in advance. Cheers, Patrizzio!

PS: While Henryk and Louise will be checking our home voice mail, you should also give Greyhound Henryk's cell number.
