LIFES A GAS

Well Northern gas came out last night the pressure was fine it is the gas metre that has its internal bellows stuck and won't pump the gas through so we need a new metre which means British gas needs to come out and do the work which also means it won't happen until eight in the morning when we have to phone up yet again so we won't be burning gas tonight tonight the inlet pipe as been capped off.At least the kettle is electric and the microwave all is well until we ares sorted , and its payday cant be down when it's a payday.

I have ordered a present Helen wants for Christmas from Ebay don't know what i will say when its delivered will have to tell to keep her nose out .

Helen needs to stay in at the van for the gas engineer well someone needs to and as Helen cant drive , and  i need to go and do some food shopping and at the moment the coffee i use is on offer saving £2.00 a jar i also need certain food for  throwing in to the freezer like sweet potato fries , button sprouts and swede and sweet corn  , as well as this months issue of Stuff magazine .

The man from the gas board thought he had came to fit us a new electrical metre he was given the wrong info , but  luckily they are trained to do both so a new gas metre was fitted he was totally pissed off and annoyed because the previous engineer who came last night left no notice or paperwork as to what work he had done and why he had left it capped which is a big no no.

But all is well that ends well we are cooking with gas again both the central heating and water seem hotter , no doubt this will be reflected with higher bills now we are burning more gas .

Went to the farm food shop bought some Barnsley chops , shin beef and pork chops plus beef and dumplings we are stocked up for a week or two now if we bought nothing else we would not starve .

Helen as bought a second hand round table with ball and claw feet plus  two carver chairs and two normal chairs for a grand total of sixty quid they should have come tonight but we are now getting them delivered tomorrow.

Apple tv is now on sale 32gb model for £129 which is reasonably priced will i get one in time for Christmas i guess so.
