Default Bad news, Robin Lee

SWMBO was delighted to find the latest LV Gardening flyer in the mail
yesterday. As she was reading the letter from Robin on the inside
cover, she suddenly blurted out "_our_ garden" from one of the lines
in the letter.

"What?" says I.

"Robin's married" says she, obviously crestfallen.

Looks like you're no longer the world's most eligible bachelor, Robin.

(I hope this doesn't mean that she won't be doing her Christmas
shopping at LV...)

Tim -

If I were you, I'd be more concerned with why my wife was "crestfallen"

Cheers -

Look on the bright side. She was probably planning on dumping you
for Robin, now she knows that's no longer an option. LMAO


Well, if it was me, I'd be thinking how many tools could I get from Robin
for my wife.

Robin,
FT: one wife, slightly used, twice the woman she once was, looking for a LA
block plane. Returns with minor surface blemishes OK. Already sent her
your way, let's see how good your customer service really is.

I'm sure a couple of LV diamond lapping stones will take that crest
right out, right Robin? ;-)

Well we can all hope this means Robin will finally realize just how
dangerous his catelogs are to us un-bachelorized folks. I'm sure a
few divorces have resulted due to his company's catelogs.....haha.

Congrats Robin!
Cheers,

That's an easy one... Just DAGS for "Who wrote the book on Customer
Service"

But just in case you weren't kidding, he's the president and chief bottle
washer of Lee Valley www.leevalley.com . Fair warning though, this is an
adult only rated site because of all the tool porn. And be absolutely
certain that your credit card is locked up where you can't get to it while
viewing this site - you have been duly warned. Do not blame us when the end
of the month comes.

Well, for a start he is not related to Robin Wood (or is that Hood?).
Also, he is not related to General Lee. And he is not the illegitimate
son of Billie Jean. Neither is Aldo Calrissian.

"Tool porn" is valid for either garden or woodworking!
