My Boiler !!!

Got up in the morning (Late than usual - 0930 Hrs) and went to the first room of the day and had running hot water to brush my teeth and got under the shower and realized to my horror that the hot water had stopped and I am actually freezing under a cold shower (In this Yonder land I never will be able to take bath in cold water since the cold water is usually 2-3 degree Celsius.) it took me a few minutes to come back to my senses and I rushed out of the bath and got myself on the phone to my rental agents. The good lady promised me that she will send a contractor out immediately. Looked around and realized that my place is a mess and started cleaning it a bit and ended up throwing all the unwanted pamphlets that have got collected over a period of 3 months at my place. Reality struck and I realized that I have a WebEX tomorrow with a bank in Holland!!!

The bell rings one hour after the call and I have got the contractor at my door, let him in and he started telling me some gibberish about why my boiler conked out, i am preparing for a WebEX seminar tomorrow and did not take anything he told into my already swarming brain, after sometime he changed something in the boiler and there it was happily making a nice humming sound and I had hot water in under 10 minutes.

Happy man me, happy man contractor leaves. After two hours this big noise like something falling inside the house comes and I have this ear splitting noise coming out of my boiler. The whole house is rattling but I still have hot water. Called my rental agency again and this time it is going to be tomorrow before anybody can come and rectify this until that time I am going to be sitting in the middle of this earthquake, even tried the regular i need them now as i dont have Hot water drama which did not go very well with her.J

BTW – My Amazon parcel should be out of Amazon by end of today UK Time.

Writing my assignments it is already overdue. I always say this but never practice it – Never put off anything that you can do now J
