Tue, Sept 5

Today Paul went to IKEA and ordered a 3-seater sofa and single seat chair to be delivered on Wednesday, and picked up an ottoman. Then it was back to our house in Hertford to wait for the carpet guy and electrician. As promised, it didn’t take too long to lay the carpet in the room that will be a storage room. Paul hooked up our Sky+ box to the old satellite dish and that worked. He then called a couple of telephone numbers in the Thomson directory to find an electrician to come and check out the flooded light fitting in the bedroom that sizzled each time he turned the electricity back on upstairs.

One other interesting thing to note happened today. Paul got a call from the MD of the company he quit last Monday to discuss the contents of his resignation letter. This proved interesting all round as the MD was unaware of several issues that Paul raised. Even more interesting was that the MD asked why the Operations Director had not called Paul in the previous 8 days to question the allegations that he had referred to in his notice letter.

Oh yea, Paul enjoyed some fish and chips from his favourite fish and chip shop in Enfield, too.
