Well, life is never dull in the Larcombe house. We spent the day trying to get things fixed. We paid 61 euros this afternoon for a man to come and tell us that the fridge was broken and if we had said that the display on the front said zero he could have ordered the part last week!!! Aaaaaarrrrgggghhhh!!!!! He now has to try and get the part direct from Germany as the fridge was bought in England and he does not have the parts in France!!! What is the difference between a French AEG fridge and an English one I wonder. Oh well, we have to wait and see. Anyway, he may get the part by next week and might come and fix it next Friday!!
We spent the morning at Bricomarche, (B&Q to you English folk), trying to explain to the man on the shower section that the doors would not work with the fittings supplied and that the base of the shower was the wrong shape. He was convinced we were just being daft, as was his colleague, tried to give us some different fittings, which we knew were not right and then told us that he was a plumber and he would come and sort it after work!!!! It is twenty past seven now and not a sign of him!!! Typical!!
However, the good news for those of you coming to the housewarming, is that the pig is ordered and we have brought in the barrel!!!! Unfortunately, the barrel arrived empty!!!!
Take care guys and talk soon. xx
