Still no sign of Carlos, but in the end a nice chap called Paul from DPD did deliver the Ninja to my door, as originally promised. Okay, as originally promised but eleven days later. Ninja Kitchens UK then sent me an email asking for another review for their website, rather than TrustPilot's, which I submitted with one star, a title "Soup Maker a Win, Customer Service an Abject Fail" and accompanying words to the effect of "great gadget shame about the customer service".
They moderated and rejected the review, concluding "Our staff has read your review and values your contribution even though it did not meet all our website guidelines. Thanks for sharing, and we hope to publish next time!" which, I guess, tells you all you need to know about the reliability of reviews left on the actual manufacturer website.
Needless to say, I don't think I'll be buying direct from them again.
And so, to conclude with a final song, this time no AI involved whatsoever, I give you "The Ballad of Sweet Potato, Carrot and Ginger Soup" . . . .
Weekend is almost here; usual plan, a couple of gigs Friday and Saturday then racing the GP14 on Sunday. Amanda's away this weekend, so a young man called Alex (aged 12) will be crewing with me.
