My contract work for Going There that started just a couple of months ago, has been an interesting journey. The learning curve has been steep, the path a little rocky, the cultural differences evident and the bureaucracy rather frustrating.....

Today I received a second invoice for the letting agent's services. I rejected the first one because it was in Swedish and I need to forward it on, so they sent me a new one. Even then, all information, except the description of what the invoice is for, is in Swedish. Payment information, date to be paid, etc etc all in Swedish!!

Now I'm not talking about some little guy who is a one-man show - but rather the company that obviously supplies him with financial services - a big, well known company. Are they not able to provide me with an invoice that is completely in English? Is this the first time they have sent an invoice abroad?

It baffles me.
