We reported it 2 days after we moved in and they sent out plenty of insurance assessors,surveyors and the like. It was not until I got a bit shirty with them just after Xmas that they started to take a bit of notice of me. The final straw for me was when I sent 3 emails which they chose to ignore, that was a mistake. :-| :-|. I really went for the jugular ;-) :-D :-D

They have certainly taken their time doing the work, LG!! Its like here, where am stilling waiting for new gutter, soffits, facias, garden paths and gates. There are three bungalows on this road and we also seem to be left until last!! :-0 :-0

Exactly your health must be put above everything else. We have a lot to do in the house this year now the HA have finally decided to fix our cracked walls it as only taken them 2 years :-|. The plasterers are starting inside in April and the outside re pointing is being done in May. That is why we are only having one weeks holiday this year as we have to balance the books ;-) :-D :-D

I just need to adjust the budget a bit and fingers crossed, LG. There are things that I would like to get done in the bungalow that might not get done now but my health comes first!!

That's good news about the 4 day week, about time you slowed down a bit :-)

I had an all day visitor, as well as BT being here doing the installation of the full fibre, so no peace!!

I've only have two more full working weeks to do, one next week and one in two weeks time, then i'm off for 6 days at Easter After that, it is a 4 day week for me :-) :-) :-)

I wondered where you were hiding :-D :-D. I always wake up early and never seem to be able to get back off to sleep again :-|.

I've been on leave for a couple of days, but they have been busy ones! I am hoping tomorrow that I can have a nice lay-in! I will probably still wake around 6ish, but at least a cuppa and some reading will send me off to sleep again!! :-D :-D

:-D :-D :-D :-D I don't blame you for that ;-).

I could probably have got some discount if I'd told R but didn't want a lecture :-D :-D :-D :-D

Crikey they know how to charge don't they :-|. We have to get some new tyres for ours before we go on holiday but we are fortunate that OH still has contacts in the trade. He gets mates rates :-D :-D :-D

I thought he was about 4, LG :-0 :-0 :-0 :-0

I'm nursing a seriously damaged purse tonight!! I damaged the nearside wing mirror on the car and the new one has cost me £264. It only took 10 mins for them to fit the new one :-( :-( All my good intentions of trying to get a new bedroom carpet keep sailing out of the window :-D :-D :-D

Other one is 8 now YG doesn't time fly :-0.

Oh goodness, where have those years gone, LG :-0 :-0 :-0 :-0

15 and 14 YG proper young ladies now :-D

Hoz old are they now?

Evening YG, they most certainly do be we all enjoyed the day with lots of laughs and giggles. :-D

Evening eveeyone :-)

Ooh, I like Scotch Pancakes! Are there any left please? :-) :-)

Maz, I had Openreach here yesterday installing full fibre/ They actually did a really good job and I got an excellent price when I renewed my contract, They ad to install another box in the bedroom, but have been able to put it in the corner, down the ide of the chest of drawers so it is out of sight Much better than the old one and I have now got rid of the disc that I had to have in the kitchen which apparently stooped any outage. That has freed up another socket that I can use in the kitchen.

LG, it sounds as though you have had a tiring day! Youngsters soon drain our energy, don't they? :-0

Evening all :-D

We have a bake stone but we can't use it because our hob is ceramic :-|
