Read the small print

Grandad September 17th, 2007

I just received a nice letter.

It was from Internet Register Ireland.

Interestingly, this company is also called DAD [any relation, I wonder?] and is registered in Holland.

Anyway, they want to include my site in a directory. All I have to do is confirm the details, sign it and send it back in the pre-paid envelope. Nice.

I read the small print -

[actually, it's a bit bigger than that, but if you click it you'll see]

That is quite a lot of money to spend to be listed in a directory I’ve never heard of?

So I searched the garden and found one of Sandy’s turds. It was nice and squishey, and had a fine blue-green hairy mould on it. It was quite pungent. I put it in a plastic bag and sent it to Internet Register Ireland in their pre-paid envelope.

I hope they read the small print.

    How did they come up with a figure of €958? Not €999 or €950.

    Hope they enjoy their present!

    Maybe it looks more official and calculated? Maybe it’s something to do with currency exchange rates? Maybe they’re charging VAT!!
