Went for an 11km walk with The Dog... 

 

[Grumpmeister]

Time to plan some travelling again   Invite from my old pal in the Loire Valley. Applying for a new passport 

Checked flights: Ryanair Stansted to Tours is £8 each way 

Given that this is Ryanair I'm guessing that it's £8 for yourself, no baggage, no clothing and magical mystery tour to a nearby airfield instead of landing at Tours.

Good morning, Mr Nick, your new oven will be installed at 7.30 a.m.

What a farce!!

Sunday morning, 6.50 a.m. and the phone rings! "Good morning, sir, we are on the way to install  your new oven."

Me: When?

"About 30 minutes"!

Rapid shower, throw some clothes on and drive 2 miles.

As I approach, I see two guys with an oven on a trolley arguing with an irate woman in a dressing gown.

They call me. "We seem to be at the wrong address."

Me: I know. I am parked opposite, Get the oven back on the van and follow me.

They obey. We go to the right address and they install the oven.

"It is working, sir, but it seems to have been damaged in transit." He points to a small dent.

"We will contact the shop and arrange to get it replaced."

Why me???

I dread Bank Holidays because I can guarantee that the boiler/freezer/oven/car/fridge/washing machine (pick one) will collapse on the Friday afternoon at about 4.00.

Happened on Xmas Eve once. WHY?

Packing still not completed. She was up till 2.00 cleaning the oven. Why?
I have been told to mow the lawn. No.

I remember that one so well

Yes. She was cleaning the oven and initially woke me up to investigate a possible burglary next door. Turned out to be our neighbour leaving for an early morning flight to Greece. I managed to scare her out of her wits. The neighbour that is as she thought I was a burglar. It all got a bit confused.

Opened the oven door last night and it came off in my hand and fell on my foot. For unfathomable reasons Mrs Nick had removed the hinges! Why??:shock:

Roof still leaking
