(this is the same view of the same street as displayed in the previous post)
I'm going to stop this now and just tell you what happened. Construction work on this street started in January 2009. The picture above was taken two months ago -YES, CONSTRUCTION WORK HAS BEEN ONGOING FOR YEARS!
Sorry, sorry, I don't mean to shout at my blog visitors, it's just that my nerves are jangled with:
- the noise pollution
- the masonry dust (this plays havoc with Kings breathing)
- the power cuts
- the disruption in water supply
- the so called drinking water. Believe me there is nothing worse than taking a big gulp of water only to discover the water has colour, water is not supposed to be a colour
- The mud, mud, mud and more mud. Whenever the dog goes missing we get a stick and poke around the mud until he pops up. Pure dead glam' that's us
Right, I'm going to stop this as well cause I am only winding myself up thinking about the whole sorry situation.
Dunedin Canmore have costed their work and a bill of £20,000 was issued to all home owners (less a magical sum of money that has been secured in an unsecured fashion that I have been advised not to talk about outside of Dunedin, lest the magic will die. Honestly, I am not making this stuff up! ).
Gosh, I'm spending way too much time on this (it's quite cathartic being able to discus this here) I will pick up the story in future posts.
