Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
Meant to post this morning, walked home because manager was in bad mood and she wasn't happy about me walking but I insisted so she said OK. Got a text this morning at half 7 asking if I'd got home OK. Nice of her to do so.

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
Had a nice business lunch up at the local Toby carvery with the project leader and a German engineer over from Kassel on some work I'm doing for them. I opted for the carvery sandwich they do: Beef in a baguette and it comes with roasties, a jumbo Yorkie and a jug of gravy for just over 4 quid. Quite filling.

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
Just had an Email from our local Councillor to say that the Council who refused to cut the grass on the large embankment round our house had made a mistake in error and will now cut the grass in two weeks and maintain it afterwards no charge. So glad I got in touch with him as they were determend that we would have to pay.

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
Nash the trouble with most local councils is the cut backs they face at the moment take North Lanarkshire for example they have budget cuts that they decided to do over two year period why I will never know as South Lanarkshire and other have not done this. North Lanarkshire a making cuts to some of it's vital services and outsourcing them to private contracts and I think some of the grass cutters section could be affected in these cuts eventually that's if the cuts for these services goes to plan. Take the large mechanical sweeper vehicles that keep our roads cleaned they are getting outsourced and the people who will suffer because of this cut is the people in housing estates as these companies will only do the main drag but I could be wrong as this is just my opinion nash.
I personally agree with it's time to stop outsourcing-local-authorities-contract-services as it's the wee man on the street who suffer's at the end of the day!

New washing machine delivered and I've installed it. Now running first empty wash ready for some real laundry tomorrow.
Guys were staggered at how old the old one was. Paid extra to have them take it away and recycle it.

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
Managed to get a alarm fitter that was within our chosen budget. I'm pleased to say that it will be fitted on Thursday, the guy was great and gave us what hubby was looking for what the alarm consists of is 1 Control Panel with Auto Dialler to his phone, 1 x wireless bell box, dummy box for the back, 3 x Wireless Pet Friendly Pir's, 3 x Door Contact, 3 X Key Fobs and 4 proximity tags it also comes with panic alarm.
What I liked about this alarm is it can be added to at a later date if we feel the need to do so as he said do you want your mobile added and I said no thank you I don't want to know if or when my home is getting broken into maybe I will add this feature at a later date as the option is their.
