An update on the art class deposit situation.

So, Sue texted me about the art class deposit that went missing in the post that I mentioned in a previous post. She advised me to ask the bank to stop the cheque, and then if she receives it she will shred it. Then she informed me that they were not with the Seasons Art Class any more, they are now running an independent art class called The Art Skills Class. This class runs for 12 weeks (she actually said 4 weeks in her text, but that was a typo which she rectified later). We won't be having a mounting week or an exhibition which means the course will be a little bit cheaper, and the cost of materials is included in the price. But now I've got to send an initial deposit of £125 instead of £99 and then the remainder of the course fees, £200, will be payable on the first day of art class. It will still be at Wall Village Hall and I still don't know for sure if I'll be having a lift off someone or if I'm going to have to get the taxi again. Anyway, whatever happens, I'm sure everything will be OK.

I hate when things like this happen. Thankfully it is rare but does happen sometimes. Hope you get it all figured out and have lift to and from would be nice.

Me too. But unfortunately it does seem to be happening more often. My Mum said the post office is understaffed and so some things start piling up and sometimes they get forgotten. Or something. I've now stopped the old cheque and posted the new one. Yes, a lift to and from would be nice and save me on taxi fees.

I'm glad she responded back to you. You really should stop the cheque. It sounds like it will be a fun class.

Thank you very much. Yes, I stopped the old cheque yesterday and posted the new one. I'm sure it will be a fun class, and I'm looking forward to it, but I would like not to have to get a taxi.

That's a pain that the deposit hasn't turned up. As you say, everything will eventually turn out okay.

It wouldn't have done any good anyway, seeing as they are now The Art Skills Class and the deposit was made out to The Seasons Art Class. I've stopped that cheque now anyway and sent a new one.

No, but the lady in the bank would have said something if it was. But they'd find it hard to cash it anyway surely, as it was made payable to The Seasons Art Class. Anyway I cancelled the old cheque yesterday and posted the new one. Thank you very much. You have a good weekend too.
