Things That Gladden The Heart

Getting older but still young enough to learn!

I did a pre app online conference video this week with the local council, and my "team", for a planning application we've put together. All went pretty well and it looks like we need to get a move on soon to make it a full blown planning application ?

Our Carbon Monoxide alarm activated yesterday afternoon. The warning pattern indicated CO and we followed the guidelines as printed on the back of the alarm (also changed the battteries just in case it was a ‘cracked wheel tappers hammer’). The emergency call centre answered immediately and ensured that we had carried out all the correct responses and then stated that the call out team will arrive with 2 hours.

Why did it “gladden my heart”, they arrived in 15 minutes - one of them lived 5 mins walk away.

( Defective alarm, less than 3 years old )
 
Having been used to Supplementary cards taking up to a month to be processed it came as a bit of a pleasant shock to to find yesterday's card on the system by 9am this morning....
 
So all is resolved with the tribunal and I have broken the news to my friends and ex work colleagues that I am now in work .. I don’t like to keep secrets from my friends but the tribunal stuff needed to be dealt with and I am surprised at how positive that has left me as a person! The nagging doubts have gone, apart from the ones that come with a flop shot and a tight lie!

As the kids won't be here for next weekend fathers day, my wife went to the trouble to make this with them this week and give me fathers day today. It made me have a moment ?, best thing they could have done as it was from the heart and homemade ?

Finally got my Sky deal sorted after two hours on live chat. Dropped Sports and Movies and reduced my bill a fair bit, I reckon I could maybe have pushed for an even better deal but I'm happy with how it went, and to be honest I couldn't be bothered with haggling ?
They put me on that VIP thing, not sure what it does mind ??‍♀️
