Trades people

The Advertiser: End of home boom will bring benefits

Tell me about it. Last week was a week where everything at home needed attention. I nearly fell off the phone when the gas repair company could make a same day call. The plumbers also turned up within the appointed hours whereas last year I kept being postponed and ended up having to wait a fortnight to have my toilet repaired (luckily we have two!!) . As for the electrician?! He didn't respond to calls or messages and I have just put that one on the back burner because my free time is limited. Fortunately for me the urgent stuff has been done. People just laughed when I said I was going to have to get some trades people in. They wished me good luck. The waiting and the prices are a standing joke at the moment in Adelaide. I confess, this time, I did pretty well and am truly grateful. Once you get hold of them, they are great.
