Another Hot Day in Paradise

I have been told off by my friend Linda for moaning about the weather - we moan when it rains and we moan when its hot. I actually don't mind heat as long as its dry and not humid - humidity I cannot cope with at all.

Today is the day when the washing machine man comes to see if he can fix my demented machine - the spin cycle keeps on going faster and faster which is quite scary, its the washing machine version of Christine that car that was possessed by demons LOL. I nearly passed out this morning emptying the pantry - I have a large wooden shelf above the machine which is used to store my washing powder and tinned goods.

Its been quite a busy morning - firstly with a call from MRS who used to host my website, it was an apology for not sending a quotation and as a result they have lost a customer. I had a call from BT offering me free space in their directory but I don't want any numbers in their directory as I get spam calls. Then it was a call from a newspaper called Midlands Focus - they keep trying to sell me advertising space and the last time they rang they were so rude that I dared to call back to complain and I overheard them say that "there was a f-ing bitch on the phone who wants to make a complaint" if I was angry before I called them I was angrier after that. I didnt get anywhere but vowed never to advertise with them and so they attempted to call me again today but I told them the problems that I had had last time and that I would never advertise with them and in fact that I had notified other wedding professionals to not advertise with them either.

I had another call from The Village - this is a little magazine that is delivered free to homes in Barnt Green, Blackwell, Cofton Hackett etc etc as they are having a wedding fair in September. We have agreed a price for the stand and they rang me today to check that I had received the booking form - I hadnt so they are sending me a new one. I am looking forward to the fair as I love talking to people so hopefully I will get some bookings from it.

  1. I never told you off lol.
    Great news about the upcoming wedding fair. Network, network, network. My business enterprise guy told me to make people remember you when you meet them.
