A heating system built by the lowest buidder…

Posted on April 12, 2011 By admin

The heating/cooling system at work has always been temperamental, to say the least. It seems that every few months, we have the engineers in our office to monitor some aspect of it. Like now, for instance, when they realised that the reason why our office was boiling was because they had disabled the cooling fans last winter so they wouldn’t be blowing freezing cold air in the room in the middle of December. Except that, now when it’s 24+ degrees, we don’t really want warm air to be wafting out of the grills, and some Arctic chill would be appreciated.

Oy.

Why is it so costly to be a responsible pet owner?

Posted on April 12, 2011 By admin

We took Annie to the vet this morning to have her checked over, update her vaccinations and get some flea and worm tablets. It cost us over £120 to do so. Since we’ve been with Village Vet (early 2007), we’ve racked up over £6.800 pounds of vet fees. Now granted, that includes both of Tolstoy’s severe conditions which were covered by insurance, but that still leaves several hundreds of pounds to have them chipped, vaccinated, routinely shaved, flead, etc… Ouch.

Should I find another bathroom?

Given the number of comments I get on my blog, maybe I should try the bathroom :)

Quote of the day

It was a puzzle why things were always dragged kicking and screaming. No one ever seemed to want to, for example, lead them gently by the hand.
--(Terry Pratchett, The Truth)
