Why am I online, at home, this morning, when I should be striding manfully into the wind on my way to work? Because I've been waiting for a builder. What, you say, the same chippy who was supposed to come 'round last night to measure up, having been supposed to start work yesterday, but had lost all of his client details and work specs? Indeed, quoth I, the very same. I phoned him up last night when he was about half an hour overdue, and he apologised profusely, and told me how they had just moved house, and, and ... I gave him a second (or is it third) chance, and he arranged to come over this morning at 8.30, before I went to work. The 9am pips have just gone off, so I think I can safely say that he's missed the appointment. I don't actually give much of a toss why he's not here ...

EDIT As per this post he arrived. After I'd turned off the PC.

That is just crap. I suggest a different builder! Quite frankly, after all this, I wouldn't actually trust him to know his builder's arse from his elbow...

*hugs you*
