Cockadoodledoo

No blips taken today, yesterday there were too many blips to choose from so I will rob one for today.

Yesterday our first pallet of uber logs arrived. The company that supplies them had clearly been trying to pull a fast one as they declared on their shipping papers the weight was 850, but it must have been over a ton (which is what we believed we were ordering) as the pallet was making the tailgate of the delivery lorry buckle.

The delivery driver I have to commend was very smart, helpful and fit. He did very well to keep the pallet intact while he unloaded as it really did seem as though it was going to roll off at one point.

He had to deliver outside the gates as his manual trolley would not have moved on the gravel.

The window cleaners arrived mid delivery for next door. They were very impatient and drove off angrily at the inconvenience after much getting out their van and stomping around. They even parked up round the corner and walked round several times. Why don't people just ask how long you're going to be!!!

Shortly after the delivery driver asked me to stand inside the gates as he was concerned the pallet might role. I looked behind me about to press the button to open the gates when I realised they were already moving on their own... I then realised cock next door was driving quite quickly towards me at speed. (Its just a guess but i'm quite sure the cleaners will have phoned him to moan thy can't get it.

Obviously I stepped to one side and he continued past until he was literally one inch away from the tailgate lights of the delivery lorry. He came through the gates so fast. The driver had to shout WHOAAAAAA. well he didn't actually need to as its not as though you could not see the lorry blocking the entrance but I think he just shouted in panic and disbelief.

I'm very disappointed in myself that I could not get my phone out quickly enough to get a blip of cock revving his engine trying to intimidate the lorry driver, who I think looked ex forces and still fit with it. I wouldn't have messed with him put it that way I'm also gutted that cock actually managed to stop in time because I really think I would still be belly laughing a week later if he had driven into the back of the lorry. Lorry driver raised his eyebrows at me and asked if cock had a problem.

Mr delivery man decided he should take this delivery extra slowly and carefully to unload as the weight was incorrect and potentially dangerous to unload. This did cause a tad more revving and moving car backwards and forwards at the lorry by cock until I could contain my laughter no more then he decided to back off slightly and retreat a foot away. Well I like to think it was my laughter but I think more likely the fact the driver stood up and was clearly about to ask him what his problem was that was the real reason he pulled back.

Oh mr cock you really have lived up to your name yesterday. Lovely to see how you back down to real men - not quite the same as bullying girls is it. Surely even by your standards you must be able to see driving your car erratically at a stationary lorry really does make you look a chopper.

I'm sure if you had been in an emergency or politely asked he would have let you through straight away.

Moron but given me a chuckle for once today.

Today we had our first proper lit fire in our lounge.

Beautiful. Very proud of husband.
