This is a mini rant

My front door opens outwards for ease of getting out. Someone had a bag of food for me and as she is frightened of Pereg [who barks but wouldn't hurt a fly], she dumped the bag down, knocked on the door, and by the time I'd gotten to the door she was gone.

The bag was put down in such a place that left the door only able to be opened about 10cm and I couldn't push it open any more. Saw her belting past my neighbour to her car, which she'd parked two houses away.

I ended up having to get on the floor, put my arm through the gap, get hold of the bag and drag it so I could get the door open wide enough to pull it in.

And then I couldn't pull myself back in my chair without leaving the bag of food on the floor, with Pereg showing great interest in it.

Don't people think?

I mean she knows the door opens outwards because she's been here before.

Some people make me so angry.

This is another mini rant [I do like it that I can have a little rant here].

I had ordered [by phone] a carton of certain \"necessary\" products, plus a carton of paper towels to put in my paper towel dispensers. The sort of dispensers that they tend to have in hospital wards/doctors' surgeries.

Fair enough they did say the goods would be delivered on Friday, but at 6.20AM

This isn't a mini rant, it's more of a \"bang your head against a brick wall\" because it feels so good when you stop.

Riiiiiight. So 2½ months ago I bought a real biggie cross country wotsit. A Merits S344 Cross Country Maxi Electric Scooter wivva canopy/roof, an' a big box on de back, an' all dat jazz.

'e dunnarf go fast and 'e dunnarf go a long way on one charge, but...

...no matter 'ow long I 'ad 'im on charge 'e wasn't charging fully.

I have just found out, via the delumptious Doron, that a very few of the chargers were faulty, therefore the scooters [scooter? dat ain't a scooter, dat's a monster] weren't able to be fully charged.

So he's bringing me a new charger tomorrow or Tuesday.

I knew there was summat wrong with the charger, and feel justified in knowing I was right.

The scooter itself? Ohmyearsandwhiskers, 'e dunnarf go fast.

OK so there was a faulty batch of chargers and I was unlucky enough to get one of them, and it will be replaced.

Don't really know whether to be pleased that I was right, or pee'd off that I got lumbered with one of the faulty chargers.
