He was supposed to turn up at 9am but he's still not here.

He was originally supposed to come last night but he was stuck on the motorway so my LL rang me to tell me he will be here at 9am this morning.

No problem was seeing DS off on Scout hike at that time anyway.

I wasn't dressed so thought I'd get in the shower when he left.

I still haven't showered yet because I didn't want to be in the shower when he turned up or not hear the door and miss him.

I text my LL at 10.30 to say he'd still not been but she hasn't replied so she's probably at work.

Grr should I just get on with my day and he'll have to arrange anther time.

He's supposed to be doing the annual service on the boiler.

I hate waiting for people its one of my pet peeves.

I know I will. He can bloody piss off. How rude is it not to be in touch???

If was going to be here at 9am surely I was supposed to be the first job of the day??

so what did he do, just decide that I'm not that important and he'll turn up when he turns up???

There's something about plumbers-or to use their full title 'bloody plumbers'. I bought a shell of a house a few years back and needed all types of tradesman-every single time I had problems with lazy assed cheating plumbers.

It took months to find an honest plumber with a decent work ethic. He's expensive but worth it!

He's just been took him 15mins.

He got called out on an emergency at 6.30 this morning. Fair enough but a phone called would have been good.

I managed to get out to do my jobs but wish I'd known that I could go to town and still be back in time.

My LL went mad Grin. At least its done for another year. I'm less Angry now Smile
