              @Mizmazzle whoops… this was supposed to be in the random love thread in support of the effort of the IHUK team. I was not expecting the order to ship till the 27th.

                  @Mizmazzle I still might curse UPS for not being as prompt as Santa Claus. Wishing everyone a Merry Christmas.

                          I'l continue with the rants:
                          Working my ass off in Texel. We had left instructions for the old hedge surrounding the property to be removed, and a new fence to be set up. Except that they left out one of the rear corners, for no real reason. Except for being lazy maybe, because it is difficult to get to. It's astonishing to see the language barrier between Dutch and German returning when you start to complain.
                          I have now all of the old hedge removed, but now I have to buy the missing pieces for the fence. Proves to be difficult on an island, with shipping rates from the mainland being astronomically high.
                          Currently looking into renting a small truck on tuesday, and pick it up myself.

                            language barrier

                            Is it one of those convenient language barriers that works out in their favour? Always could put it to the test and say that you're not paying unless it's done. Sometimes it works wonders on translational issues 😉

                              @goosehd Of course that's the case here.
                              But the problem is two fold. I paid the company for the new fence after I received notice from the recreational park management that they finished their work.
                              It was the park management's task to remove the old hedge beforehand, and in the pictures they sent they conveniently left out that corner. And they will deduct their pay from the rent for the house, as we rent it out through them while we're not using it ourselves.

                                If they do a good job, could you ask Izzy to pop over here and sort out my fishing room please.....

                                    And if she gets all lippy and says something to the effect, "But dad, have you seen the state of Giles's fishing room?", then feel free to say that Giles is NOT a good role model.....

                                      I'm sure I might have heard it once or twice when I was younger....
