Waiting

Took the dogs for an early walk in the field again to Darwin’s delight. Guy came around to check mums alarm system and teach us how to use it. He was too big to get into the loft to finish the wiring check so someone will have to come back tomorrow. J left and headed over to her dads so she could help her niece out with some uni stuff and trying to get some work experience for this year. Did a few more bits around the house for mum before she dropped me over to J dad’s so we could start the long drive home. Highlight of the day was a text message from the painter. We had paid him a week ago but it seemed we had used an old account. He sent a very nice message telling me exactly what he thought of me in no uncertain terms as he thought we weren’t going to pay which ended with him telling about “sex and travel”. J replied and informed him we had already paid him and that there was no need for that sort of thing as we were repeat customers who had always paid. He informed us he would refund the payment but we are not holding our breath. Glad we had already made the decision not to use him again as he never cleans up after himself and never completes all the jobs you asked him to. Shame as he was a recommendation from a friend at work.
