They are still idiots!

I haven't had much time to blog lately. The "idiots?" and I have had a lot going on. We've had a very busy interlude. a few problems along the way such as the building we trade from being up for sale -hopefully the new buyer will want to keep us?- thankfully we've been too busy to worry much about what we do if they don't want to keep us. And I now just think we'll cross that bridge if we come to it. I'm at work today and  have five minutes to spare so I couldn't let this episode pass without blogging.
As we all know we've had a shit summer. But as far as I'm aware in the good old Forest of Dean the rain is much the same quality where ever you are. The co. worker who I work the showroom with is on holiday at the moment so another co. worker who doesn't normally work on a Wednesday said he would work a couple of hours this week to help out. Great I thought. All the other "idiots?" are either on holiday or were working a long way from home that day. So I was glad of just a little support. 8.30 in I trotted I opened up brushed the pavement and set us up for the day. NO HELP MATE. I made myself a cuppa and settled in. Thinking oh well never mind. At about 9.45 down the road he came. He sauntered in and said "I couldn't come in at 8.30 the rain where I live was so bad you couldn't go out in it. He lives about two miles away from me and I was here. This "IDIOT?" is the one who loves driving in the snow and at the first flake goes home. The same "idiot?" who adds on at least five inches to the accumulation of snow at his home when others live just up the road. The same "idiot?" who's got the flu when he's caught your cold. I wonder if working with "idiots?" is ever gong to get any easier!!
