Paris update

[Scruffydog777]

I arrived in Paris with no problems. Flights went well. The metro was a little tougher. Gate du Nord is a huge station, but a young Frenchman was a big help.
I arrived at my hotel around 8am, was dog tired, so I slept for about 3 hours.

I got up and went down to the fnac store and scoped it out. There were 4 floors and I was looking for a manager type, the suit wearing kind. I didn't really see any one of that caliber,but I saw 3 workers who were sitting behind a help desk, so I decided I would talk to them.

They were very helpful. (funny how that works) I showed them the letter we had sent to the store, which was in French and that was a big help, because there was a language gap.

They tried calling the organizer, but couldn't get a hold of him. They said they would get in touch with Alizee and see what she thought.

We discussed the possibility of me buying the cds tomorrow and leaving them there . I said that would be fine and I said I'd leave the list of names too. They were very taken aback by that. They thought I just wanted Alizee's name signed to it. So I had to do some quick tap dancing and I said if it's easier for her to just sign her name, that's fine with us. I know we would all rather have it personalized, but at this late stage we would just like to make sure something gets done. So they told me to check back tomorrow aftenoon, which I will do after I meet Ray at the airport.

If the mods want to merge this with another thread, that's fine. It's just easier for me to do it this way where I'm using a ThinkPad.
