Time’s up!

August 31st, 2009

I have the following week off work…YAY!!!! But I must use the time productively, I had a week off at the beginning of August and did sod all, another factor is that the Landlord rang Wednesday and wants to do a spot check, six months is approaching so I guess it’s to be expected although I can’t help feeling that someone in the street has said something even though we have kept our noses clean and not caused any problems (at worst Joe squirted his water pistol at next door’s car), this may stem from past tenancies I’ve had the privilege to endure. Not a lot needs doing, I have drilled a hole in the front for satellite coax and I need to pin up the cable and seal the hole, also a big lump of plaster dropped off inside that needs correcting. Tidy the garden a little, nothing drastic, I have the feeling the Landlord’s bought this property from new with a buy to let mortgage popular at the time and have never lived here, it’s basically the original decor and the garden is practically all backfill and impossible to dig over without a JCB. So their interests are purely financial and I suppose they just need to know we aren’t moving in illegal immigrants or having camp fires in the living room before they renew the tenancy agreement. Anyway I’m off to B&Q for cable clips and a few other bits and pop into Maplins for a F type connector and a box to put on the wall.

I see Chain is building antennae, I need to build another 2 meter jobby to put on the roof something I hope to do this week, if Chain is back from lands afar I could ask him to help with testing and setting it up. Right must get on with my to do list, bfn.
