    Im Happy



    Sometime things just work out well, usually I dont get the best of luck, or at least it feels that way, but the last couple of days Ive had a run of luck and Im happy.

    Firstly the builder I thought had ripped me off and run off with £500 of my cash turned up and finished the job, got home yesterday and it was all finished

    Then new contract ring me up and tell me they would prefer me to start on the 22nd Oct, giving me 2 weeks holiday in between contracts. I have only taken 1 weeks breaks at a time for the last 7 years this is going to be my first 2 weeker in that peirod, ok Im not earning but Im not bothered there comes a time when you need some time out and Im at that point Im going to visit my family, may be go to Prague or Amsterdam for a couple of days and just chill

    Im going to buy a lottery ticket as well now seeing as my lucks in

    You're easily pleased. I take it you're a "cup half full" sort of person.

      I'm with Ivor1 - I'd be over the moon if I could find tradesmen who weren't intent on ripping people off.

        I think my reactions would have been "It's about time you turned up you c**t", and "tulip, two weeks without pay". But then, I'm a miserable so-and-so.

                    I logged into my email on Sunday morning to find an email from the National Lottery with some "Exciting news about your Euromillions ticket".
