A day to remember….

Simon got an out of the blue call from a number from the North East this morning – turns out it was a call from the company that we bought a service plan from for the Range Rover Sport and that a service was likely now due. Simon advised the lady that we have in fact sold the car and as a result we weren’t likely to be making use of the MoT cover or the next service. She very kindly did two things:

1. Notes on their system that the car was sold and this would not be using the service plan from this point forward

2. Gave Simon a number to call to claim back the remainder of the service plan

Wait, what???

In curiosity, Simon called the number and explained what had happened – the chap who took the call asked for name and address and registration number before stating that he had now closed the account and would post out a cheque for £560 !!!!

Simon nearly fell off the seat he was sat on, said thank you and hung up – before bursting into laughter.

At no point would we have ever considered we would be able to claim back some of the unused service plan.

Now, we accept that we have not yet received that cheque but WOW 🙂 sometimes good things really do happen – keep believing 👍

Simon got a call from a neighbour at around 5pm with the news that a tree in our garden has fallen into their driveway.

So that’s two trees in just 2 months 🙁

The wind was pretty high and it was a pretty significant part of the tree 🙁

How it fell and not damage either of our garages or land on one of our cars is a miracle..

Eddie (the neighbour) has a chain saw so quickly made light work of cutting it up and he was seemingly keen to keep the wood to burn in their wood burning stove – happy days 🙂

We will now need to keep an eye on the remainder of the tree to see if it shows signs of further collapse….

With a train journey to the office in Bracknell. All was going great until he entered the car park at Wakefield Westgate station – he managed to catch his rear near side wheel on the entrance and has now scuffed his recently upgraded wheels 🙁

Damnit 🤬

Yesterday morning we were woken by Eddie on around 5 episodes greeted with sick on the bedroom floor.

When we got up for work and school etc, he head downstairs and unloaded an ass full of blood 🙁

So, a trip to the vet showed that the poor sod is suffering from colitis 🙁

He has had an injection and has some tablets to take over the next few days.

He is still not really ready for his own food but is more than interested in our dinners (of course)

He is also still a finely tuned liquid manure shooting machine so we are sadly experiencing a couple of those accidents in the house 🙁

Hopefully this sorts itself out super quickly…. 💩
