OI VEY.. This idiot drain clearing service have told the managing agents gross porky pies, they said "we were there at 11.00am and cleared the drain".. well, she 'begs' to differ.
Because at 11.00am, she was standing outside our front door talking to a builder from next door, the little drain is still blocked and on top of that, the drain cover has broken and you cannot get it out, except with brute force, to clear out said drain with the necessary suction and power hoses.
So there! Fiddle the diddle.. these companies don't half get her back up sometimes, they're beyond stupid.. not to mention lazy beyond belief.. grrr. Goodness knows where they think they were at 11.00am but it wasn't at our house, clearing out our drain, that's for sure!
Rant over..
It was a 'stupid' day, she feels as if she has been punched in the head with the news of Angela dying, the weather was gruesome, hot and muggy and veryvery wet.. she had to take books back to the library and that was when she discovered the loss of her prescription sunglasses.
They are nowhere to be found.. grrr.. veryvery grrr as they were ancient, they had been her mothers' sunglasses bought in the late fifties in Rome and she took them to Margaret, her lovely optician in Hackney, who changed the lenses from Constance's prescription to hers.
So you 'might' say she's slightly sentimental about them! She's hoping that she has left them in little shed for there's no sign of them here at home.
She had run out of clothes washing liquid and other cleaning materials and had to catch a bus to Lidl at Clapham Junction, the traffic in both directions was beastly and then it started to pour with tropical rain just when the bus pulled to its' last stop beside Peter Jones.
When she was leaving to go to the library, she'd sent the managing agents another photo of the blocked drain and had received an email back saying "But Kiwi Drains say they've done the drain.. blah blah blah", so you can imagine her frame of mind when she came down out stairs, peered into the drain only to see the blackage still there.. obviously, the idiots had not done the right drain!
Don't bother to watch this space, it will only make you daft or mad.. but she is going to have to practise restraint of tongue and pen tomorrow, for how can some people be so incredibly stupid?
GeeGee Parrot.
