Shoddy Goods
 
I bought a 5 leg swivel chair in Spain 6 months ago.

This afternoon one of the legs broke off when I sat down on it....I went flying...luckily apart from a small cut on my arm I'm ok.

Now comes the delimna.....When I complain to the company I bought it from and they ask me what happened......My Spanish is ok...but saying
"I fell arse over tit" I think I might struggle.

Could it be a problem of weight Royboy ? Don't know you so just asking like.

Tried to be helpful, and google those translation thingies ... all the sites seemed to explode and nothing available and foghorn icons, etc. ... LOL.

If Yolanda comes on, she may be able to help you.

Sorry still laughing.

That reminds me of my spa holiday on the Isle of Ischia.
I wanted a neck and back massage but needed to tell the young woman that I had spine problems. It took me a while with a dictionary to get it right, so I wrote it down and presented her with it. Maybe you could do the same - will be easier than memorising it.
