Default Getting close to the edge……

I can just about handle a faulty car.

Heard from my joiner – the gas board replaced the pipe to the house, and refused to re-connect due to low pressure on the test.

Suggests the corgi reg bloke who connected the gas hob has stuffed up.

Transco have been called and are currently investigating.

If the dodgy handling does not get me, the icy cold house might

Oh, a well established permie next to me has been whinging all blinking week about the canteen not labelling the sandwiches as brown or wholemeal and is very sensitive when I suggested it is not a big deal in the general scheme of things…….

Maybe your neighbours have interfered with your gas supply?

You say others whine? Pot meet kettle etcetc.

I got close to the edge once, you could see all over Cheshire, when I looked down I saw your house, you seemed insignificant, so I got out my binnoculars, and guess what?

You still were

Don't push me 'cuz I'm close to the edge
I'm trying not to lose my head
Uh huh ha ha ha
It's like a jungle sometimes
It makes me wonder how I keep from goin' under


Wise words, wise words.

Close to the edge, down by the river
Close to the end, round by the corner
seasons will pass me by
