Branching out!

This photo has everything wrong and nothing right and would score less than ten in any photo competition. Well I don't care because for me a photo is a reminder not just of your image but perhaps too of your day, emotion etc etc. This is a bit like me; branching out doing all manner of things, feeling droopy when going full tilt, oversharp when my temper gets raggdy like as in stupid cold calls. Got three already today, two the fault of chubby hubby who hasnt the gall to say no or get lost like i do! One was regards free loft insulation. Well and good if you have a nice neat EMPTY loft! not one chock full with JUNK!. Wifey on phone said "your husband indicated you may be interested in free loft insulation" I said "well I don't think husband has the inclination to clear the bloody loft, I don't have the time so perhaps she would like to clear it and then yes I would like loft insulation thank you very much" She said "I think we should cancel this job"
Second call (again hubbys doing) would I like solar panels for house?
My response "do you know where I live? the West Coast of Scotland which hardly sees that yellow spot called sun" "oh but that doesnt matter, the panels still work" she trills. "why should I invest 12 grand for roof panels & how quick would they begin to pay me back in power etc" "about 12 years " she says "well given that I am 97, I think we are being a little optimistic then" "perhaps some other time" says she! The last one was from someone from a sub continent with a dodgy accent telling me they would fix the fault in my computer so could they speak to the house owner please (always so polite) I said "house owner not in and I am being kept a slave here made to do all manner of horrible chores and could they please ring for the police to help me escape" "Sorry wrong number" says he! I can guarantee that any time my landline rings its one of these eejits as everyone else uses my mobile no. Will they ever learn?
Happy blipping all
