stranger than fiction 2

Well, we went to the library and I told the nice librarian that a man had taken away our books. "That'll be the book collection officer then". Right, no, but they weren't the right books, they weren't even library books. "O, I see. well, that's a bit strange. Well, they're not here...they'll be in Halifax...But he'll have to get them back to you...
Right...

Anyway, I managed to drag the boys outside, before the market closed, so I could get my Floradix. I honestly don't know why I bother getting it from Barry, as it invariably takes me weeks and weeks to get round to ordering it and more weeks till I get round to getting it, all for a measly 75p discount, and he got the wrong sort. And in the mean time I'm floating round with white spots in front of my eyes and only two remaining red blood cells in my body. I did manage to get a prescription for it once, but I couldn't find a pharmacy that would dispense it.

So we filled up my rucksack with more perishables, including the ingredients of enchiladas, which were very nice, thankyou. We went in search of guitar-fixing man, who wasn't there, but instead I bumped into wife of sewing -machine fixing man, who I had just been thinking about that morning. (this was all yeasterday)

I took my guitar into the guitar shop and he said it would be about £30 and it wasn't really worth it as not a very expensive guitar- he knows I really want a new one, see? But at least he told me what needs doing so maybe I can get Jimbob to do it? Or even the person who inadvertantly broke it when I first got it, as he was lowering the action he can't have glued the nut down and that's whats making it buzz.

Anyway, we called round at Helen's and she gave me a small chest of drawers and some shelves that were just coming down that I might be able to use for the boys' room.

O and I sorted out my car insurance... I finally found the doc's and it was only 10 days overdue!!! reminders must have gone to old house and new owners are very slow on the passing on to their next door neighbour.
Must go now- we have visitors...
