Friday the 13th


TheArtfulDogger

Recommended Posts

Not that I am superstitious or anything (caresses lucky rabbit foot as he types) but Friday 13th is going well for me so far


Got woken at 4am by a recovery truck picking up a crash damaged Addison and Lee taxi (why do these recovery trucks make so much noise running their engines in the middle of the night?)


Made myself a cup of tea this morning only to discover my favourite mug has cracked and more tea is outside me than in me


I am now scared of eating those delicious English strawberries I bought yesterday In case I find a new friend inside one.


How is everyone else's luck today ?

My milk curdled when I added it to my coffee and had to start again

with black coffee.


I then tried to edit an email from a year ago and ended up sending it

out to about 40 people making myself look an idiot (thanks Outlook).

That's not related to the date, that's the lords of ED punishing you for shopping outside of lordship lane 😳

Ha ha TheArtfulDogger. You know, sometimes, the best thing you can do in this life is go shopping where your heart tells you is best to go. I miss Iceland, there I've said it. I miss it a lot. I'm not being an inverse snob here telling everyone they can't buy organic kale from a caravan parked on goose green, no!!!!! I'm just saying, sometimes there's nothing wrong with wanting a ready meal from your local shop. But now all we have is the co-op. It's annoying I won't lie it's bloody making me furious even now.. But I don't care anymore. So, maybe Jesus is punishing me for going to asda in charlton rather than one of the fine estate agents along the lane, you know what who cares!!!! Ha. Happy Friday one and all.

And thus begins the next chapter in advertising for Iceland, Peter has been dropped in favour of


a actress is quoted as saying 'I can buy all this delicious frozen veg and pass it off as organic kale from bobbys van because by time it's defrosted no one will know the difference' followed by the voice over stating "that's why Louisa slums at Iceland"

On line shopping is available. It's actually quite good and free if you spend over ?35.

    • We could not be happier. Brian and Malachi were wonderful to have around the house while they were working. The result is 5 star and with Brian's direction the route we took was better than what we had planned. We love the look of our house it has totally changed the feel of the property and transformed it into a house we are proud of. Thank you so much for your great work. Not one hitch and felt really taken care of from start to finish. I cannot recommend them enough.
    • I wanted to provide a strong recommendation for Nick Minnes and his team. I came across Nick when someone on our street was moving out shortly after we moved in and posted on our street whatsapp group with their top ten best trades people in which Nick was listed as a handyman+. We had just moved into a house that had been lived in for 40 years by a couple in their late 80s so there was a lot of work to do! Over the last 5 years, we have used Nick on multiple occasions. The definition of handymen+ does not do Nick and his team justice as they do so much more than this. The work they have done includes: A complete new bathroom refurbishment (including re-building a new wall) Completely refurbishing a sitting room (including inserting sound insultation and bespoke cabinetary) Bespoke under stairs storage (after a number of other trades people said it was too difficult) Preparing the house for plastering (removing old wallpaper, filling in cracks) Outside restoration of bricks and cornice Fixing floorboards down Nick is not your normal handymen. He is extremely creative and also great with thinking through colour schemes. I wouldn't hesitate to use Nick and his team again. Everything that they have done for me has been of the highest quality. They are trustworthy, tidy, reliable and honest. I already have a list of other jobs to get them back in for. I would very happily provide a reference for Nick - just like the people did who were leaving our road.  Nick can be contacted on: 07866 267 581. Thanks, Andy
