Library offers fee tea bag

Saturday, February 27th, 2010

No really.

I went to collect a book I had reserved at my local Wolverhampton Library, and as I had the item issued, I was offered a free tea bag.

Bemused; politely; I said no, thank you, I don’t drink tea.

P.S. Wolverhampton Libraries, why can’t I reserve a book on-line if it is NOT on loan? quite often I would prefer you to send the book to my local library if it is in the Central Library on the shelf. And I know your system could do it!

Fireworks – At The Wolverhampton Hell’s Angel’s Club House

Monday, November 9th, 2009

We keep meaning to go the Wolverhampton Hell’s Angel’s Club House Fireworks.  Every year we say we must go, it’s only a five minute walk away, but there always seem to be a reason why we don’t. This year it was someone writing an essay…

Anyway, the view from the bedroom window was still fairly spectacular for the high mortars, so I couldn’t resist a few firework shots. Here is one to wet your appetite.

npower improving accuracy – apparently.

I had a letter from npower the other day. I quote:

“To improve the accuracy of your account, we’ve changed the date when your next bill or statement will be issued.
Your next bill or statement will be produced on or around 08 February 2010 and will cover a shorter or longer period than normal.”

Now that’s accurate!
