What light relief this is from all that politics!

These are real problems, real life. Thanks Richard. You have made my day.

IMHO If the dog is now well, and the vandalism is covered by your insurance; then perhaps your other monetary worries may best be addressed by a lawsuit ? ..... against the Utilities Companies?

IMHO I believe a high-profile campaign may cheer you up, better acquaint you with I.T., allow you to mix with a finer class of person such as Lawyers, Presidents etc. with the bonus proviso that you may "extort" millions (or even billions ) I humbly believe, without prejudice, malice or intent.

So did you burn a cake recently? .... or still felt cold? Were these possibilities mentioned in your Contract with said Companies? And to have to pay for them on top of such shoddy service!

If that fails to cheer you up (and since it has now made me miserable to be reminded of such stuff ) ... then PM me to discuss other ways to cheer each other up

Thankyou for your kind thoughts Oracle

Macy's a lot livelier this morning the problem is Bruce the Pug doesnt understand why she cant play and its a nightmare keeping them apart.
I will be able to claim on the pet insurance eventually.

The car is also covered but i must pay the first £200 excess.

As for the utility companies well you were closer to the truth than you probably thought.
I just rang them up to queery the bill and the nice lady suggested that it was probably because my boiler was over 10 years old so I told her that it was over 10 years old last year and that the bill was 40% less then she then had a momentary lapse of silence and came back with (and i swear this is true) 'Well it has been cold'
I put the phone down at this point

As to you other suggestions I think I'll start a campaign by designing a Lyingutilitycompany website and wave banners outside Downing street in fact I may do it outside the British High Commission in Nicosia next time i'm over I will post pictures on forum so you can all give me support

And i NEVER burn cakes

Richard, it gets even worst!

Euro2008 is on soon and the boys aren't competing!

Ok, they wouldn't get very far if they were but at least it would be something to look forward to.

I often think, bugger this over here and move back.
