THE WIZARD CAME & HE WAVED HIS WAND..

In Rob's case his wand being one of those screwdrivers which tell you if a cable is 'live' or not! And after two little tests, the good news was that her beloved, fifteen year old, never been ill before, Zanussi dishwasher's ON OFF switch is all that is sick!

Yippee.. instant saving of at least two hundred smackeraroonies! Aka £200.00. Oh, this was happy news indeed! He said "I'll order and get it sent here, I'm back from Berlin on September the 12th and I'll come and fit it and do your shelves", yes folks, you're ahead of the game if you've got a Wizard in your life!

I like Rob and it was interesting to see what was inside the control panel of the dishwasher, I was, luckily enough, perambulating along the work surface in the kitchen when he came in, so was close to the action.

The rest of the day was spent waiting for flippin' builders to make up their minds about when they need her to be at home so they, finally, get around to finishing her door. They've been SO SLOW.

She wouldn't recommend this team to anyone. They leave the site dirty, do little bits of work, then go and do another little bit elsewhere. They haven't repaired the damaged rubbish area doorframe and a painter was just going to paint over the broken wood!

So she snapped a photo and sent it off to the landlord and the managing agents, watch this space.

She has to go to hospital tomorrow for a three monthly check-up. Nice when they go from every month to three months, lets hope he says "see you in six months", that would be good news and a great start to September, wouldn't it?

Next thing we will know is Bob and Tom arriving to stay for a long week end, they arrive not this Friday but the next. I haven't seen them for ten years and she hasn't seen them for eight! Where has time gone? Flown by, that's where, it's just gone.. whoosh..

As we are going to go too. Early night for us both tonight, she got us at some ridiculous hour this morning, the weather was very unsettled and she felt cold and damp all day, she left to have tea with her Lebanese friends and whilst she was there.. ohh.. torrential rain came down and the atmosphere brightened!

So good night to you all, I hope you have all had a pleasant start to Autumn / Fall?

GeeGee Parrot.
