I bet he's fizzing! But, as he suggested the adjudication service provided by the FMB, I've contacted them; awaiting form in the post. It costs £110 per hour + VAT but if it gets my home sorted it will be worth it.<br> The letter I received from him is a disgrace; he's listed what he'll do and what he won't! Cheeky tw*t! He keeps referring to "extras" but isn't specific about what they are.

I really like it and it's not what I would have even considered looking at. &...when I asked f*ckface Anff to put a line of smaller mosiac tiles round my bath, he said no!

He's going to give me an estimate. So annoying when Anff, twastard batface has been paid to do it! He's so incompetent he can't even slop emulsion on the walls it has to be over the windows and floors as well.</p> <p>The plumber from yesterday rang. There is a bath and sink in his mates shop that might match the toilet so I'll go and have a look tomorrow. Fingers crossed!</p> <p>After the p&d has been I'm going to the fish shop as I need cheering up and can't be bothered to cook.

Not very helpful; their complaints procedure is inadaquate for cases that need urgent attention.

No matter which way I turn there are obstacles and that bastard has got away with it!

Fancy calling Nic Whitchell an idiot! Just cos he's an institution doesn't mean he can be abused by just anyone. He's actually sounding rather pathetic and unhinged. I know it's sad he lost his son but that doesn't give him the right to make wild outrageous accusations about people.

It's ssooo not funny! & now the sun is on it, it will definitely be smelling! I have thought about putting it thru' their letterbox but my friends don't think it would be funny. I keep telling them it's not meant to be.</p> <p>There is nothing in the papers worth reading today; nothing ofany real interest unless your reading habits include the two sad macca/mucca gits or the two even more sad coley gits. Even the footie pages are all about Liverpool getting dumped out of the cup. More about the fueding managers fergie/wenger, I say. Good old harry is lambasting the idiots in the fa about playing a game abraod. Good for you, harry! How daft do those idiots think the fans are?

Your team didn't even show up today.</p> <p>Showing so much disrespect to the FA Cup and ManU, you deserved to be beaten. You're priority may be the Champions League and the title but the fans PAID to watch Arsenal, the team today! </p> <p>If you turn up to a game not to win, why be so petulent and aggressive? You were lucky to finish with 10 men.</p> <p>This was a spectacle - of one team playing to win, one team without respect for either the fans or the cup they were playing in.</p> <p>& as for Liverpool? There's nothing left to play for.

Did I change my mind?<br> No! & here's why...</p> <p>When the news first broke that Madeleine had been abducted her parents stood in front of the media begging for her safe return. Like everyone else at the time, my heart went out to them. I watched as he took control of the media spotlight while she held his hand looking like a rabbit caught in the headlights. In the days that followed we were drip fed bits of information that was gradually dispelled. For example -<br> the parents had gone for a quick evening meal at a restaurant in sight of their apartment. In truth, they had gone out for the evening with their friends;<br> they were not in view of their apartment;<br> they did not check on their children as regularly as first stated;<br> it was not the first time they'd left them alone to go out for the evening.<br> Relatives went on TV stating that the apartment had been broken into, the window had been forced and Madeleine taken. This was later denied by Police; doors were left unlocked, giving easy access to anyone who had watched the family.<br> Speculation has been rife as to why Madeleine didn't cry out; was she given a mild sedative?<br> What sort of parents would leave a three year old alone with two babies? What would have happened if they'd woken? If this didn't cause them concern, why not? If they are to be believed and they did check every 30 minutes, were they not concerned about leaving such young children alone for so long? A lot can happen in 30 minutes - watch any soap if your not convinced. How far can you drive in 30 minutes? How far can you walk? Her abductor would have been long gone by the time the alarm was raised.<br> But the main reason my mind won't be changed is because they were wrong to leave one child and two babies alone in a foreign country. Whatever has happened to her is because of their actions, not because she was snatched in a moment. They failed to keep her safe.<br> Like many, I have been involved in heated discussions about this and why I do not have sympathy for them. It always comes back to the same questions - were they right to leave them? Were they responsible for what happened to her? Should they have paid for the child sitting service? Would you have left your children? </p> <p>Some times in life we have to accept responsibility for our own actions. The McCanns should stop trying to fool us into believing they are victims. I personally would be more sympathetic if they hadn't patronised us in the beginning............cassie</p> <p> <small> <a href="http://turnoffthelights.blog.co.uk/2007/11/06/the_reason_why~3251914/#comments">Comments</a> </small> </p>
