It's contagious, and it's official (aka Tiny Little Things That Cause You Irrational Joy)


Recommended Posts

John Lewis's technical support helpline and the people who work on it. If you buy a computer and keep the receipt you can call them when you have technical problems and you don't have to pay for it. It's like having your own IT helpdesk and they look after you like they've been practising on their grannies, which certainly works for me.

Unfortunately John Lewis's computer department gave me totally wrong info about something last week.


Don't think it was their tech support people though.


BTW are you sure their support is for an indefinite period? I thought it was just three months?

Sue, I asked that as I'm coming up to the three months and they said no, you can always call and we'll do our best to help. All good experiences so far on my side and it made returning the previous laptop easier as the faults were already logged in their system.

Oh, that's really useful to know, thanks!

Are you sure it wasn't actually sent by your niece?


I know kids are extraordinarily technologically advanced these days, but ....... ????

I'm sure as she was talking to me on the landline at the time and she could hear him chattering away to himself in the next room...

    • He did mention it's share of freehold, I’d be very cautious with that. It can turn into a nightmare if relationships with neighbours break down. My brother had a share of freehold in a flat in West Hampstead, and when he needed to sell, the neighbour refused to sign the transfer of the freehold. What followed was over two years of legal battles, spiralling costs and constant stress. He lost several potential buyers, and the whole sale fell through just as he got a job offer in another city. It was a complete disaster. The neighbour was stubborn and uncooperative, doing everything they could to delay the process. It ended in legal deadlock, and there was very little anyone could do without their cooperation. At that point, the TA6 form becomes the least of your worries; it’s the TR1 form that matters. Without the other freeholder’s signature on that, you’re stuck. After seeing what my brother went through, I’d never touch a share of freehold again. When things go wrong, they can go really wrong. If you have a share of freehold, you need a respectful and reasonable relationship with the others involved; otherwise, it can be costly, stressful and exhausting. Sounds like these neighbours can’t be reasoned with. There’s really no coming back from something like this unless they genuinely apologise and replace the trees and plants they ruined. One small consolation is that people who behave like this are usually miserable behind closed doors. If they were truly happy, they’d just get on with their lives instead of trying to make other people’s lives difficult. And the irony is, they’re being incredibly short-sighted. This kind of behaviour almost always backfires.
