Life is getting Better

Hi

The house move from hell is coming to an end.

Yes I have lost all except 3 of my fish and all the corals, nett loss around £2,000.

The heating has gone wrong, another £700.

The furniture does not match, but such is life.

My health is not the best at the moment, but I do carry on.

I have helped many people as my Lodgers when they first came to the UK.

I was happy to do that, did not expect anything in return.

I have been paid back in Spades today.

Garden done, house cleaned from top to bottom.

Window blinds taken down and new ones in.

Rubbish taken away at no cost.

Jakob, aged 10, has sorted out the Broadband and TV, I have paid him his first wages, £5 an hour and a promise of a McDonalds tomorrow.

The fun starts Monday, Jakob and his sister are painting the living room.

That will be fun.

Oh how wonderful for you swimfeeders. It must have been so depressing seeing things hat needed doing whichever way you looked.

Good to hear you've settled in and making your new comfy home.
I'm still battling with surveyors and solicitors ... they're a piggin pain.

Things can only get better for you Swimmers, shame about your Fish though, I love Marine Fish & Corals.

Hi

Both are Morti.

I lost my Fish and Corals due to an arse of a Solicitor.

He will pay for that, one way or another.

I paid my Mortgage off when I moved on August 16th, it is still showing at £140,000 and in spite of complaints nothing has been done.

Mr Branson is going to be in serious trouble about this.

I will hammer him.

Pleased to hear things are looking up. Life has a way of sorting itself out usually. Keep that positive head on swimmy x
