Going Public

Hurrah! Ex has volunteered to drive all the way to Truro to watch Beloved Daughter play in the netball B-team in subzero temperatures, leaving me free all alone, once again, in my rather large and very cold house, to 'Get On', with the whole day to myself and Twiglet.

Trouble is, 'Getting On' can be SO SLOW!

I was becoming gloomier and gloomier and slower and slower looking for better pictures to pinch off the internet to illustrate this site with, when - KERRRRPOW!!!!

A very nice lady has just rung, asking whether I am 'Wydemeet'. My first ever bed and breakfast enquiry!  I am raised from my lethargy and straight onto my blog to report on my success! With a new picture at the top of the page of somebody else's writing. Do you like it?

"How did you find me?" I asked her.  She didn't know - she had been passed on details by her husband, but really - it's only TWO HOURS since the Wydemeet phone number, 01364 631390, has been listed by BT!

How fantastic is that? So thank God I now have an energy boost and can reapply myself to ringing up the remaining 52 speaking agents on my list, on 'my poet' Matt's behalf, in the hope of getting him a well-rewarded gig. Yippee! Actually I think I will go and celebrate with a coffee and a fag first, I am so excited!

She can't come, by the way - the lady ringing about Bed and Breakfast, as it's during the school holidays. But who cares?!

Another hopefully constructive thing I've done today is to move the published address of my Range Rover to my sister's house in Fulham, and added £500 back onto the price.  It's been a month on EBay, and two weeks now on AutoTrader.  I havent had a single enquiry from AutoTrader that wasn't a scam.  Four scams!  Beware!
