Is it just me ? I seem to have my share of half wits and complete wasters, the bathroom in Tenerife is still not right even after 1 lot of Spanish plumbers then the Germans then the English twats, when we go next i am taking a compressed air pump to see if the English has let something down the waste pipe
If not i will have to make it right myself just as Janet said last time i was going on and on about it,
Do what you normally do when something like this happens - do it yourself FMR
on Friday DPD said we couldnt leave your parcel because you wernt in, yes i was,
today i received a text we will deliver it between 10 10 and 11 10 no they didnt , so i emailed the place that sold me the item, he said i will look into it, then he rang me and said it was delivered at 10,18 and signed for by Bado ? WTF I told him i have cctv and no fecker delivered anything,
He rang back and said we will send another tomorrow,
Then i emailed the kent that has my dream car to see when eta is, well we are just fitting the exhaust as we speak then when we have finished that tomorrow i will road test it and if i am happy it will then go to the bodyshop, WTF you have had it 9 weeks and in 3 weeks time it is my birthday and last December i said i want it back by then, to say i feel like stabbing some bassa is an understatement, so he said he will review it tomorrow, so when he does email me because he dosent like me shouting down the phone i will tell him what day later in the week when i will be trailing down to London to pick it up, so that will be 800 miles in total for me to deal with this expert on all things classic Mercedes, I hope George come with me because he can calm situations like we will be having, Geoff would hold the kent while i punched him in the torso so as to leave no marks that would be visible, I'm 65 soon and these thing should not be happening to me anymore,
Or is it me

Feckin' Royal Mail did that to us on Saturday, Parcel had to be signed for. Trish saw a slip in the letterbox, tried to deliver parcel today, no one home. Trish pressed doorbell, we have 2. 1 downstairs at front door so postie can hear it and 1 upstairs in living room so we can hear it. fecker didn't ring it, it was working fine!

I'm not sure Reg sees it that way Carol...

Got a grovelling email this morning saying he did not know there was a time limit, I said refer to early emails and if you cant find it i will send the full folder from start to finish, then he said the technician
who was doing my car had been sacked   and the new list had been put together by the new technician I reminded him i had been doing this for 50 years in June and had heard every bit of bull shit ever thought of, get busy on my dream car and keep me updated, today he will do a full road test and report back today, hope he hasnt forgot i drove it 200 miles to him and he wont find anything i hadnt told him about when i gave him the list on A4 top to bottom,
If people put as much effort into doing the job as they do dreaming up complete shite to tell people they would keep their reputation and their knee caps, I'm calm at the moment and have my scally phone on charge to take with me Feck me ridgid

London twat emailed and said car drives perfect Reg and it will be going into the body shop Wednesday
I dont anticipate any problems with it not being ready for your birthday - (remember this statement) 
that gives them 13 working days to strip and paint then rebuild a 50 year old Mercedes that is built like a brick outhouse, Doubt it
People have been asking why i didnt do it myself ? well its a bit of luxury for me at 65,
I like to employ top class decorators which i can do myself, i can also rewire or re plumb a house fit bathrooms and kitchens i have done it all but now i like to get somebody in to do things,
It called being rich      but mostly i cant be arsed  Im calm today

Nobody ever does work like we do it ourselves, we are all perfectionists  x

Absolutely Carol. If you want it done right, do it yourself.

Ive had a funny sort of day really nothing bad and nothing too good but alright in the scheme of things,
remember that Italian twat i had all that trouble wit ? well he dropped dead last week so that was good
went to the dentist and that was ok ish,
had a phone call from an old friend who was at a petrol station when a Healey blue Healey pulled up and he thought it was me, he got chatting with the guy who insisted he rang me there and then,
So the guy shot round to my gaff and we spent 2 hours talking cars and people, I said about 30 years ago you were talking to my wife outside my mothers when i pulled up and said hey up my father had an healey and you said i have seen your wife around headingley in the bright yellow Renault 4, so we have met before, and it went on and on, nice chap almost as nice as me but thats pretty imposible, anyway that was that, except we both use the same letting agent and both want to shag Francesca that works there, he was 69 and i am nearly 65
