robl12 Posted January 7, 2012 Share Posted January 7, 2012 Getting a 4 figure refund from an Insurance company. Got a renewal letter through the post for a policy that should have been cancelled when when we took out a multicar policy with them, Needless to say they were very apologetic and made an immediate refund which was a good bonus for the new year.

Makes you really appreciate loved ones (I'll stop been corny now ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghost Posted January 20, 2012 Share Posted January 20, 2012 The lump on my head and banging headache have reduced after a customers car bootlid tried closing on my head yesterday due to a strong gust of wind blowing when I was loading a couple parts into their car, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tractorman810 Posted January 20, 2012 Share Posted January 20, 2012 finally home after our lorry mishap, luckly the council arrived to deal with the oil issue so that saved us a bit of time, none made it into the drains as we managed to get our sandbags down in the gutters, recovery guy wanted to tow us all the way back, but once we got it strapped back uop with 3 large ratchet straps we were allowed to drive back, far quicker that way than on the back of a erf rig on a spec lift just ordered a pizza after my tea went beyond saving as sue didnt get my messages Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lord Ferguson Posted January 23, 2012 Share Posted January 23, 2012 I had my annual audit today for NHS/Local Govermnent supply standard and passed.... with flying colours really... so I'm well pleased - a real credit to the staff here who do all the hard work in making the place look tidy, well maintained and compliant. Now all I have to do is re-win my current contract with my biggest customer which comes up for renewal shortly and I'll be cooking on gasoline ... or faling that.. in the dole queue with 24 others I suspect :'( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CMB Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 My Goldcrest has returned and is dancing on the office windowsill. Oh boy he is handsome and his gold crest is soooooooo bright. Bless him We've had a few goldcrests in the garden before Sue, but not at this time of the year My mum's even spotted a pair of Firecrests displaying, which I'm told is very rare.

Firecrest are a bird I have not seen and would love to. I have a pair of Goldcrests that appear to be permanent residents as I see one or the other throughout the year. He appeared a couple of weeks ago and tapped on the window and then went off chasing wives (I suspect) . The year before last they nested in the honeysuckle under the office window and last year I found a tiny little nest deep in another honeysuckle in the garden when I trimmed it back in the autumn. The male is quite tame and has in the past allowed me to go right up to the window wih my camera, The picture MAY be on this forum somewhere. No current photos though as he is being too busy "dancing" and does not stand still for long Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
