When Robert Frost wrote ‘Mending Walls’, he was being facetious saying that
good fences make good neighbours. He was trying to point out how unnecessary they
are, and all they do is keep people apart.
Well about now I wouldn’t mind
being kept apart from the bloody neighbour building a car port. This has been
going on for a long time. Their tradies are neither quick, nor reliable and certainly
do not give a shit about pissing off the neighbours at 6.30am, by running all
manner of power tools and shouting loudly up the street as they make a plan for
the next five minutes before they head off to their proper jobs.
As soon as they roll up in their
zooped up fucking utes, the dog gets ready for a full frontal attack, so that
means I am and waiting too. Then the noise starts. I am pretty sure they are
not permitted by law to start til 7am, but what’s 30 little minutes early
between friends huh.
6 days a week and they are gone
well before lunchtime. How long can it possibly take to build a bloody carport.
I would like someone to shove a
drill or a mallet or a hammer or any one of the myriad of tools they are
crashing about with, up their builders’ cracks. I’d do it myself but that would
be a very pongy job indeed, ooooh YUK.
Bastards!!
Oh and Belly got herself a job,
team leader at a nursery...propagating plants all day, she’s in heaven. What a clever persistent woman she is.
