There's a mystery surrounded the conservatory firm that stole
GBP3400 from me last year as a payment to the conservatory maker
that they never made.

The wife and I have just returned from a very pleasant few days away at
Swanage, marred only by one nasty event. During a walk along the seafront
one day, the heavens suddenly opened and to escape the downpour we nipped
into the White Swan http://www.whiteswanswanage.co.uk/home.aspx for
lunch, ordering o ...

Another Database Cockup
Sat, 25 Jul 2009 00:03:13 +0100
Treasury are pinning all their hopes on England becoming a
database-policed society. That day is still way some off if the latest
DVLA tax disc debacle is anything to go by.

What's Going on In Poland?
Sun, 19 Jul 2009 14:38:03 +0100
Two wedding invits in one week to all expenses paid trips to Poland!
To hold one wedding in Poland is unfortunate. One wonders what the
devil's going on there. Another stab at WWII? Surely the finest hotel in
'the beautiful medieval city of Warsaw' didn't accommodate their
visitors in 'five star luxury back ...

I've got a 70th celeb coming up and I'm planning to order all the food
from Cook to save my wife the chore of preparation.
We've ordered from the Haslemere branch before and the dishes have been
out of this world. Now we're about to try the new branch in Godalming.

Sorry. My shaky spelling although Vivisimo is tolerant of spelling
errors. There's a whole range of persianas on display at:

There is still some humour in commerce
Fri, 10 Jul 2009 19:29:21 +0100
I wanted to buy a new penknife because my old multi-function 'Swiss army
knife', which is guaranteed to get boy scouts out of horses' hooves, had
recently fallen apart ... please, no jokes about obese boy scouts.
Attempts to purchase a replacement in Epsom High Street drew a total blank

that showed the film cooling towers of Didcot poisoning the environment
and bringing about climate cha ...
