June, fingers crossed that Lona is going to be ok. Take care yourself too.

that's a bit of a weird time isn't it Moyra?? our workmen always turn up by 9 maybe 9.30 at the latest if they need to go and fetch something for the job...at this rate, Steve will have finished work for the day before the workman even begins Lol

I expected him to turn up about 8 am. Apparently he is having problems picking up all the equipment, surely it should have been booked weeks ago?!

One of the directors of the housing association visited yesterday and is suggesting our brick wall be replaced with wood all round. So not a happy bunny.

well, lets hope that he isn't doing this every day!! i guess they want the wood as there is no chance of it doing any real damage if it comes down and is a lot cheaper too...will the HA be paying then?

Harvey, i meant to say, that was a really nice thing of you to say last night...i don't think i am hard to understand, i am pretty straight forward, i have tried to explain that if he needs me, i am there, if he is feeling down then pick up the phone and talk to me....i know now that isn't the right thing to do, i will learn how to help him

Hi, he has turned up at last. Just hope he does a good job! I want british standards not Bulgarian!

if he is anything like the poles, he will be a proper grafter and do a decent job

Yes, I hope so, he is a nice enough guy!

June hope all is ok. Can't email as they are playing about. Yet again.

just asked my dad if he would fetch me from Steves this evening, apparenty he left for work this morning and a car pulled out on him at a junction...dad had right of way, he tooted his horn and two blokes jumped out and threatened him!!! one was a body builder type, they were yelling at my dad saying come on then have a go...my dad told him to get back in the van and stop being so stupid as he is 60 odd years old and there was two of them...they body builder type laughed and said "yeah exactly"...threatened the wrong persons dad! i know where he lives Lol and if it is who i think it is god help him!!!
