Because I was unshaven at that moment I told him that I would return next (this) Saturday. I was there at 11am, new piccies taken and he told me that they would call me when the prints were ready. I should be this same afternoon. 2 1/2 hours I got a call...... corrupt files. I said: I'm coming to your shop NOW and I won't leave before I have those pictures!

Now what do you think? On my way to the photographer my car got hit by another car, not my fault. No injuries fortunately, but a lot of damage. I hope the other guy's insurance will pay. As you can understand, I was quite pissed off by the time I reached the photograper. After 20 minutes waiting I decided that he didn't deserve me as a customer and I told him this in a loud voice in a full shop.

The downside is: I still haven't got mugshots......

Sorry for what happened! Good luck!
