Excuse the bulk venting of frustration,

1. Emergency home insurance, part of the conservatory roof has blown off on, reported on Sunday, earliest possible fix weds/thurs. So much for emergency cover, conservatory now filling with water and further damage being caused which isn't covered under the same policy.

2. Ordered Gill's birthday present yesterday 7am on guaranteed 1pm delivery today. Been tracking delivery since it didn't arrive by 1.30pm, turns out some incompetent in Carlisle sorting office has sent it to Darlington sorting office instead of putting it out for today's delivery. What annoys most is the unsympathetic nature of the Royal Mail workers that "oh it didn't get delivered, oh well it might tomorrow" imo they should have been a bit more apologetic. Sender had already agreed to refund postage charge due to RM's failings and they will also be reimburse what they paid.

3. Being brassed till pay day

Oh dear. Doesn't sound good...is this a mate of yours or just someone you persuaded to move in and share the bills?

He's a mate I used to share with in uni 8 years ago and nowt's changed since then. He's still a mate but I'd forgotten how barely house trained he is. I haven't been this stressed since...well...since I last shared with him :/

one word rich.....ouch!! thats a bad one for the conservatory, hope it gets sorted quickly and without too much expense!! :S

thanks folks, just quick note,
re conservatory - contractors coming tonight between 6-7pm but currently raining so won't hold my breath.
re royal liars - spoke to service centre 5.20pm last night told it was in Darlington and would be delivered today (as above). Hasn't arrived, rang again today to be told i couldn't have been told that at 5.20pm as it didn't arrive in Darlington till 11.30pm last night and only despatched from there this morning because no one thought to stick it on the earlist wagon. So it should be out for delivery tomorrow before 1pm, but can't give a definative guarantee that it will be here tomorrow and not lost again.

Had our previous Checkout Manager in today :suicide2::suicide: she's not currently the checkout manager, she's a Self Scan Checkout Trainer, so the mood's been pretty low on checkouts today.

Fecking Disney songs...:suicide2:
I'll explain, as you may or may not be aware Morriosns have a Disney Promotion on at the moment, where you spend £30 7 recieve a free pack of Disney Magical Moments Cards.

Doesn't sound so bad right?? but every other song is a Disney song..... :suicide2:

Child labour has failed to show again for the 3rd time this week. I think he may have quit and hasn't got round to telling me yet.

ETA: now says he's turning up at the back of 2. I'm not holding my breath

my sard arrived, looks very genuine

but i dont think it is, the colour coating feels a bit cheap and the vacum hose connector doesnt feel very secure

the details suggest it's genuine but i'm leaning towards it being a very good fake.....

for peace of mind im taking it up with the proper places and will be using a bmw pressure regulator on the cinq

ycming · Jul 22, 2011

Care to share where you got it from and price? I think people are getting a Tomi one now a days as too many fake SARD.

mrcinquecento · Jul 22, 2011

got it off ebay for cheap, so not at all surprised, thought it was worth a look at the price anyway because it was listed as a genuine item, so if its fake the seller doesnt really have alot of comeback for selling counterfeit goods, im well covered for getting a refund

i have a plan b anyway in the bmw regulator that is pre-set to the 3.5 bar anyway, so alls good

Cut part of my right wrist at work.
Went to get some Blue Roll & caught my wirst on the edge of the bag draw.

Trying to study for a job interview on Wednesday and the neighbours aren't helping with their diy - Baghdad would be quieter than round here.

I may have to decamp elsewhere for some peace and quiet.

Fell over on the stairs at work, so have a nice big bruise by my left hip.
Oh & SCO Tills constantly freezing over & customers not giving me 2seconds to sort out the other tills with the lights flashing red......
