O Mr Git: talking of rain, and the law....
On hte last day of my ollerdy it absolutely battered down with rain, the entire day. In the evening I discovered that water was seeping in through the ceiling of my daughter's bedroom, so i stuck a bucket beneath and clambered up into the loft for a dekko. You shouldn't be able to see trees......
So I called what I believed to be a roofing company around to give me an estimate. Long story short, they insisted I sign a mandate permitting them to speak to my insurance company and then put in a claim for TWO FUCKING GRAND.
The company called me and told me the amount: I told them to chuck it in the bin. What's really infuriating is that the Insurers don't want to take action against the company (who I've since learned are actually a nationwide loss assessor) and they doubt that the pigs will be bothered either.
Fucks me off, that. If they're nationwide they must've grown rich by making similarly absurd claims - begins with F, rhymes with 'broad' - doubtless driving everybody's premiums up all the while.
And what's anyone going to do about it? Nowt.
Truly f**ks me off.
