Earlier this week I received an e-mail from our InternetService Provider informing us that the credit card we were using for payment was due to expire. As I was at home this morning I decided to call them and give them details of the new one. However, they did not want to talk to me. Although I had the account number, my address and all other details, they needed to speak with Martin. But, I did not want to change anything or recive anything, I wanted to pay. Could I not do this, when it was actually my e-mail address they hd sent the reminder to - but no. That is inflexible customer service for you.
Off to the customer for a meeting in the afternoon and saw a couple of what appeared to be fat pigeons from the back, walking around in the bushes. Suddently one turned it's head and turned out to be bright pink on the front, and definetly had the head of a parrot. It was the weirdest combination of parrot/pigeon I have ever seen. I have no idea what it was and if it was an accident or an actual species. I will do some research later. Picture attached will be added when I can get my phone to communicate to the computer.
Tonight I am off to IKEA to deal with their, most likely equally hopeless, customer service. I need to get the broken part for my chest of drawers replaced. Hopefully Sydney rush-hour traffic bvehaves. It is quite practical that Martin works near my customer sometimes so he can pick me up after work.
Wishing everyone a lovely weekend. Weather is forcasted to be 25 degrees and sunny both days here. We are looking at houses on the beach on Saturday and eating a very long lunch at Peter Doyle on Sunday, most likely containig at least one lobster.
