The sound of Mnetters stamping their foot in annoyance if orders are cancelled, will show up on the richter scale. Fugly chair might make it into the next edition of the Oxford dictionary. Grin

You can have one of mine mousebacon

This has made my night. I needed cheering up. Cant wait to see the thread where you all start receiving your recliners!!!

JakeBullet · 08/01/2014 21:57

Ive ordered one and if by slim chance M&S honour it I will donate it to the local hospice for use or for them to sell on.

It isnt going to happen though is it?

TimeToPassGo · 08/01/2014 21:57

Please god don't let them deliver me a swatch of that material. But if they do I will frame it to cheer me up :)

Doodlekitty · 08/01/2014 21:59

Ah well, was worth a punt

CinnamonPorridge · 08/01/2014 21:59

Oh well we have 5 charity shops in walking (recliner carrying) distance one of them will take them

LittleNoona · 08/01/2014 21:59

So many of us have ordered these to donate to charities etc, it would be morally wrong to not honour the orders surely?!

youarewinning · 08/01/2014 21:59

Am now in a heap after reading the TV story and the description of most petitioners used armchair legal arguments

HeartsTrumpDiamonds · 08/01/2014 22:00

Now i am dithering too. It would fit in our family room, as ugly as it is.

I can't wait to find out what is going to happen.

D'you think it's a couple of the night shift guys playing practical jokes on each other and now it's gone all viral Grin

Someone post a link to FB and Twitter, go on.

Olbasoil · 08/01/2014 22:00
