HORRENDOUS DAY MOSTLY DOWN TO MY HERMES PARCELS

Certainly had better days, bought postage for sending the faulty scanner back to China as post office want about £80. Used Hermes and got to point of downloading label then it came up fault contact them. Earliest they had phone manned 8.30 am only it wasn't manned other than an automated robot which ignored all their references and ditto their online robot helper. 2 1/4 hours wasted before I could get another carrier, when I printed their label it turns out to be part of Hermes group anyway but a lot cheaper and it actually worked. Now battling through Paypal to get a refund as Hermes are just blanking me, I recommend people never go near that outfit, nothing more than a bunch of scammers.

I had a note back from our new vicar that the reading I'm doing at church Sunday wasn't the one Rodney ( leave it with me ) Fowler have given me, another thing to change. The day just went on like that, Neff had their German lady engineer here to fix the broken dish washer. The phone never seemed to stop. I managed to get the new display cabinet finished to near primer paint stage, a couple little bits to rub down in the morning then a thorough wipe with wet cloth around all the room, vaccing carpet everything few minutes. Queries from people over package not received but they had sent incomplete address, then it was bank holiday, don't other people get these public holidays?

Worst thing today is the constant pain and discomfort, worse day yet with the old nerve pain which kicked off about 15 years or so back and we eventually easily treated by one small tablet a day, obviously my crumbling spine is getting worse and now it is back with me just when communicating with doctor is at its worse. Hopefully I'll get more jobs done at weekend, garden crying out to be tidies, vehicles need cleaning, EBay shop needs updating, display cabinet to finish, recent film trips to Halifax and Bradford need editing. Herewith slide show from Halifax visit yesterday.
