Just one of those days....again


Honestly, dealing with the Insurance company is doing our heads in. At least we take some comfort from the fact that we know they have picked on the wrong people to diddle about.

5 weeks ago we had a phone call from one of the 'pod leaders' (yes, pods are now the 'in thing' for this crap) advising she would set up an urgent meeting to clarify some minor outstanding issues - and then went to ground. Our calls to her to follow up on this have gone unanswered....with a bit of luck she will have been chewed up and spat out by the next pod.

In the neatime, we amuse ourselves by putting a blackboard on our poor ol' fence and make our comments known to all and sundry. And do you know - we have never been tagged with grafitti!! I assume most people feel this way.


And, because it is May that means it is New Zealand music month...so will delight you with some local morsels of talent! Firstly, an ol' favourite of mine from quite a few years ago Greg Johnson....this guy gets better every year. Hope you enjoy it!

The other difference is that carp actually contribute to the good of existence...

I'm not sure I'd still be sane.

Your ongoing plight/fight leaves me speechless. I was grateful to have the uncomfortable silence filled with the lovely tune of Greg Johnson, whom I'd never heard before. Good luck with the life-sucking pod "people."

So I take it that Beat Street Chilli 'Shrooms help cool your temper after any interaction with the insurance company...

Steve - yet another good point!

Marginalia - I'm not sure if I ever have been....

Lynne with an E - thank you, an escape to Canada seems more enticing with each day!

Lady - well, they are pretty darn good but don't quite beat red wine! :-)
