    Carla should have organized a back up dress. Dragging a child across the country on the middle of the night is mental.

    Good point. Why did she even take the dress if it didn't fit. Why not cut your losses and persue her through the courts for the deposit she'd paid?

    Why isn't Joe calling a halt to the caller saying the dressmaker is a liar and you cant trust her, he shuts ordinary folk up very quickly when they want to mention even a first name of someone !!

    I'd say the dress was in ribbons anyway after an hour or two on the bouncy castle

    Carla doesn't seem to keen on getting her money back, I'm starting to think she didn't pay all she said she had.

    I can't imagine anyone handing over such a significant sum of cash without asking for a receipt (particularly if there'd been some trust/communication problems before that)

    Surely Thelma's books will show the correct figures involved.

    Why don't Joe's researchers simply get in touch with her accountants to verify the amounts ?

    It's amazing what you can afford to spend your money on when you don't pay taxes or charges.
