London`s Calling #Folksy

Good morning, the blog is a bit late this morning, mainly because I have been too busy enjoying myself.
Well that was after wrestling with car insurance I thought I had done. Did the renewal online several days ago through the website. It didn`t ask for a card number but came up as paid. I assumed they kept the details from last time. Waited for new stuff to arrive through the post, nothing. Tried phoning. A call centre abroad. Turned out that as they had cancelled it I would have to go through the whole thing again. I pointed out that they already had the details. He just had to ask some more questions. Grrrr. I said was the price the same..... cagey reply. Didn`t know till he`d asked the questions. So I asked for a rough idea based on the fact they had all the details already. Nope. couldn`t do it. Tried again... would it go up or down.... couldn`t say. I was getting a little annoyed at this point. So I told him I wasn`t spending another half hour on the phone only to find it was more expensive, in which case I would go elsewhere anyway.
To be fair I had already spent half an hour on the phone while he faffed about finding this information and that information. I even pointed out that it must be right in front of him on the computer which he agreed it was. Arrrgggghhhh. I gave up, told him not to bother I would get it somewhere else.
So I tried another insurance company, spoke to a nice lady and it was sorted.
Visitors arrived yesterday, we went off out for lunch at a local pub. Yay!! I am seriously getting used to this eating out lark, the biggest plus is of course no cooking. By the time we got back from there after a leisurely lunch the afternoon was going fast. Then of course by early evening it was more socialising, glasses of wine, lot`s of great conversation and plenty of laughter. I ask you.... what could be better?
Thought I would be topical again and have London related creations today from Folksy.
As usual, to see a bigger picture or a description, just click on the item to view it in the shop.
ENJOY!!!
A clear blue sky started the day
but now I`m thinking, no way.
Put the washing on, it should get dry
now I`m thinking Nooo, big sigh!
I know the forecast was for rain
but the early start fooled me again.
The gorgeous sunny dawning
made for a bright morning.
The temp is getting warm already
the gauge rising nice and steady.
Why wouldn`t I think, nice day?
Washing out, then shopping play.
The clouds now are filling the sky
the sun has already said bye bye.
It`s getting darker as I speak
I fear the sky is going to leak.
Please oh please, no more rain
don`t want a miserable day, not again!!
