Fishy going's on . . .

R.I.P

Our poor office fish died last week. After suffering from a very fishy illness for a while, it all eventually grew too much for him and he sadly passed away. Yes, Cy - for that was his name, Cy - will be sadly missed, with his big black googly eyes and his flapping, flowing fins and tail. It was all very sad, and a minute silence had to be held by the entire office in memory of him.

*sniff, sniff*

But our spirits were soon lifted by the purchase of another. Beanz, he is called, and he is now a happy, healthy and valid member of our team. He will soon be trained to answer calls and customer queries, and be just as good as Cy was. He's not the only one either. He also has a companion, newly named Baked, who is just getting over his grieving period for Cy.

And there is also a black dog that often graces us with her presence. A right little miss is our Missy. She has been a member of our team for sometime now, and by the evidence provided, she will soon be fully trained up to a standard where she can competently take your calls - competently? . . . comPETently, get it? . . . (Groans all round)

It took her a little while to get used to our working environment though, as she just couldn't get out of the habit of tearing around the office. Sometimes she takes a step backwards and still resorts to racing around, but we forgive her for these instances, purely for one reason. She never likes to see a full bin and does like to help empty them - all over the office floor . . . Bless her little furry cotton socks.

All this just goes towards my theory that Gridstop Ltd, aka Cybercheckout, is run by friendly, approachable, down-to-earth people who like their pets. We take pride in selling our pet products as well as all our other products, and will happily answer any question or query that you have, regardless of how small or how complicated.

Also, whilst on a fishy topic, just to warn everyone, we may soon be getting some brand new products - fishing tackle! Yes, we will soon be seeing Missy sitting beside Baked and Beanz's fish tank with a rod and hook, hoping to catch some classy, prized goldfish.

Don't be surprised if she never answers your call after that . . .
