Word to the Wise

[FionaH]

Hint:
NEVER EVER try to answer phone whilst putting a seed tray full of compost and leek seeds on the window sill. Somethings gotta go and it wont be the phone!

Compost every where, hoover blocked and gotta go out.
ARGGGGHHHHHH

Some days I could give Lynda a run for her money

[SarzWix]

Oh no !! In my world, the phone would just go hang... I don't answer it most of the time anyway
Hope you've got a good dust-pan and brush!

[smallblueplanet]

Ahhhh big pooooo!!! Maybe if you put the compost outside you'll get some 'mystery' seedlings through?

Time to buy an answerphone!

[Flummery]

Nearly as bad as trying to answer the phone when you're ironing. You burn your ear!

[SlugLobber]

Iro-what, now?

[coreopsis]

The most frustrating thing is that even if you answer the phone it turns out to be a Asian salesman or something similar...

[Rhona]

Iro-what, now?

It's the big hot dragon in the cupboard. You have to feed it one of your husband's shirts every week or so to quell the beast.

nearly killed myself getting to the phone this morning, thought it might have been the hospital ........ was someone asking me about wheelchairs .... wrong number grrrrr

[HeyWayne]

I never answer the phone anyway - it's never for me.

[lynda66]

it's never for me either lol ....... i'm sure i must have a crossed line or something, i get so many wrong numbers.

[jackie j]

i let the answer phone do it most of the time lol only pick up if i know who it is and we have a display phone so ignore any unknown numbers.

[janeyo]

Oh no.. I have done something similar (of course I have they don't call me calamity Jane for nothing lol)
I only last week dropped a load of seedlings while taking them down the stairs. Luckily the dyson sorted it.

[Bephlam]

Oh no !! In my world, the phone would just go hang... I don't answer it most of the time anyway

Ditto...I never answer the phone...have a severe allergy to it!!!

That reminds me of a joke I got as a text! Paddy goes to the Dr with 2 burned ears, shows the doc the firs ear. Doc say what happened there? Paddy says I was diong the ironing and the phone rang instead of puting the phone to my ear I put the iron there!

Then Doc says well what happened to your other ear then?
Paddy says the f%$^er called back!

Let me chear you up Fiona, at least your misshap was not as bad as what I did yesterday morning!

I was just on my about to get in my car to go to work and my neighbour gave me bad news about her OH He had passed away night b4. She was a mess and in peaces, it upset me to see her hurting so much! I then went to my local shops to get some money out for some lunch but it was crowded would have taken ages to get money out so I picked up some bread and soup and asked can I pay later which my local guy is ok with thank god! So now just to set the seen a little more I'm flustered upset and late for work! I pulled into the carpark did not look properly at which cars were were and promptly reversed into a Colleagues car, spliting her No plate and slightly scuffing the bumper.

My car has a half rectangle shaped split on the lower skirting part of the bumper and is split along the skirting as well so thank god looks like more dammage to my car than hers!

I have already offered to pay for a new No plate for her, will also get her some tea-cut to pollish out the tiny scuffs on her bumper! I also said to her if she wants to go through the insurance then that is ok as well!

She said she wants her OH to look at her car b4 she makes a disision! Understandablly she was upset but I want to know where I stand about contacting my insurance or not, I need to talk to her againe as if she goes through the insurance then we will both have to stump up with the exess which at the moment I cant afford

So far she has not said anything to me today, about what she wants to do!
So I am feeling just a tad low last couple of days which is a shame after having such a lovely weekend!

[FionaH]

Jan I would just wait till shes decided what to do, once she has calmed down it might not look so awful

I have now un blocked the hoover. It is a carp hoover anyway and blocks at the slightest thing, going to talk Mr H into getting a Henry.
I have cleaned up the last of the mess and will sow some more leeks tomorrow.
In the meantime I am touching nothing breakable for the rest of the day! Do you think that includes the washing up?
