skanked by Robins and Day

Well I tried to book the van in for its free service as offered when we bought it along with its 3 month warranty. I got told there is no free service so we have been skanked by Robins and Day in Coventry who are obviously DODGY CAR DEALERS! I am not happy. So may as well Name and Shame them. The warranty is up now anyway and we have only had one problem which I think was due to very hot weather. The alarm kept going off but it was only for a couple of days when it was very very hot the other week. Either way Robins and Day are dodgy car dealers so everyone beware. I didnt realise till today that they didnt put it on the receipt. The guy who sold it to us tho - Mark Whelan - definitelyt said it included a free service which we would need to book it in for in the next few months so now I have tried only to be told there is not one included.Well we havent had it so we have been ripped off by ROBINS & DAY, Peugeot dealers in Coventry

annoying neighbours

They have all fallen out with us. Next door not joined on is a stuck up *1tch anyway and always has been - told us when she cut our hedge back ( last october)without asking and I told her not to that we have brought down the tone of the neighbourhood AND are not good enough to live here. I think its me she particularly hates cos she thinks I am just common. Well I probably am! I complained to local councillor about her cos she told me she would continue to cut back our indeginous trees as and when she liked. We don t want to involve a solicitor cos it makes it harder to sell the house so I got local councillor involved and she confirmed our rights and told her to leave our trees alone. This silly cow also prefers the leylandii we are chopping down to the proper english shrubs we want to keep! The rest of our neighbours we got on with till last thursday when I got a shed put outside the back door. Well realistically to get rid of huge monstrosity of shed we need somewhere to put our stuff and we cannot put new shed in old spot till old shed is moved. Only hard standing is right outside our kitchen door and we dont want the new shed to rot.Within about 5 mins of the workmen who delivered and put together leaving, next door ( tilll now friendly) neighbour complained about it being outside back door. We dont want up garden since will simply be robbed and also only current hard standing ( till removal of huge tumble down wreck of shed) is outside back door. Its convenient there and we dont mind if we look at a shed cos it makes the kitchen very private. It does not in any way obscure light from next door and she actually has a shed the opposite side of the fence - tho roof is lower! She can just about see the peak of the roof - its about 4 inches over the top of the fence-and she is moaning. We would prefer to leave it where it is though I have told her its there cos we cannot take down old one and replace unless we can empty it and we cannot put it where old one is till we have removed that - catch 22 etc. She not happy so now most of street - or at least neighbours immediately both sides hate us. I dont care, M doesnt care but its a bit ott cos whats wrong anyway with our shed? Its not even a cheapey one and cost us nearly £400! All it means is she cannot spy on us out of her bedroom window anymore cos she cant see! ha! Anyway shed is just a store though I think its probably the first of several and maybe we can make the middle original shed into a workshop! They will end up dotted about the garden. Its a bit at a time though due to lack of money.

Chickens fun - infact very popular with next dooor but one neighbours both sides who used to keep them years ago so thats a good thing. I cleaned them this morning and Gwen was sitting shouting at me the whole time. She even sat on the top of the dirty straw in the bucket moaning at me! She is always in the way and moaning - shes the boss you see!I do like my chickens............

I hurt one of the cockateils. She sat on the lounge door and I closed it. I thought her toe was broken but today shes using it but I have grazed all the skin. She was going to the vets today ( I did it yesterday morning) but shes healing so quickly and can climb and seems not too bothered so I am just keping an eye on her and will see if it heals. Birds are different to mammals and heal really quickly so hopefully the damage will be gone soon. I feel so awful about it. I know they sit on the doors and usually I check and for some reason I didnt look. M is going to shave the top off the really well fitting door so it will look all bodged but at least I wont be able to trap a cockaleils feet in it so I prefer to have ill fitting doors it seems. Its the new door too and cost a lot since our doors are all 32 inches tall so we cant get the normal cheapey ones, so quite sad.
