A day of fiasco cleaner wise. 

Mrs K's replacement Dyson vacuum (don't ask) was due to be delivered by 12 noon.  So we got up early just in case and track the delivery driver on the App (as you do) and he gets to within 10 minutes of us and then nothing until an hour later 'we're sorry you weren't available to take the delivery' message appears.  WTF!!!   So we escalate it and eventually they phone back and arrange a second attempt which arrives late afternoon  :thumbsup: 

It's then my job to fit the new charging station and usefully the hole spacing is same as last one BUT the instructions say I have to drill holes ~15cm higher than the old ones.  OK so this is duly done leaving the two previous rawplugs to be removed and when I do . . . . half the wall falls off (well about 5cm diameter bit)  Banghead 

So this is progressively being filled but meantime I fit the new charging station and . . . . .the cleaner when fitted hangs ~15cm higher than needed  evil: evil: evil:   Banghead Banghead Banghead

Meantime in the kitchen . . . .to be continued
Well, whatever, nevermind

I had one of those today...


Sorry we missed you. We’re taking your parcel to a nearby Amazon Locker, so you can still get it. We’ll send you an email and update Your Orders when it’s available for collection. If it’s not collected, we’ll try delivering it to your address again.
Nicosia, CY



LIARS!  cussing:


Not only was I in, this is the same message this courier used last time... Then it took a whole week to get from Nicosia (1 hour away by car) to Pissouri...  Banghead

Where you moving to?


Selling three properties in Pissouri to buy another in Pissouri... Renovating another property in Pafos which we will also keep as a weekend place...

You can imagine how complicated the whole thing is...  confused:

I know, it sort of got out of hand...  redface:

When I explained it all to my solicitor her reaction was, "Do you know how complicated this will be??? facepalm:"...

...but she has done a fantastic job in the face of complications (properties without title deeds) and some very difficult lawyers representing the vendors...  cloud9:
