it occurred to me as I hung up the phone from speaking to Yass council the other day that I had had my first "are you kidding me experience" You know the one you might celebrate as a couple after you have your first fight! No make up sex going on here folks let me tell you!
The story goes like this..........
Our beautiful plans are finally ready to put into council (more on that later) MOH and myself travel out to yass and lodge the plans. We speak to a very friendly lady behind the counter about our plans, she shares our dreams and ohhhs and arhs in all the right places. Gives us some advice on weather we should lodge our pool at the same time, "no just put proposed as you don't really have all the details just yet, don't want to hold up the process" So we write proposed and pay our money and off we go.
2 weeks later we have a letter saying "please provide all details of the pool before we can advance any further" So I pick up the phone to talk to "she who must be obeyed" and get told that she doesn't really care what we were told at the time if we don't have all the details for the pool our only option is to DRIVE back out to Yass in the VW (lucky it is soooo comfortable) and liquid paper it off the plans ourselves as they cannot! mmmm blood is boiling and I really want to tell her what she can do with her liquid paper but don't.
Next day I do exactly that, drive out liquid paper in handbag and ask at the desk for plans to correct. Lovely lady at the desk remembers me, makes fatal mistake of asking me how I am...... I tell her! her face drops, not happy Jan! Lovely young man gets plans and happily explains that if this had been his building he would have just asked the builder to fax over a new copy minus the pool, death stare and explain that he is not helping the situation or their reputation.
Now this is not a post to just complain but if you must, leave a comment here!
