I’m back.
I appreciate this news will fill you with dread so to make you feel a bit better, I’ll give you some ammo to take the piss out of me. Yes I know you don’t normally need any of that, so consider it an act of errrrrm, love.
As I have said many times, I am rubbish at maths.
I once got 2% in Mrs Kirk’s maths class.
But I did think I had got better over the years until something happened a couple of weeks ago that showed me I was kidding myself.
This:
Yep, what you see is a rather excessive electricity bill because someone – errrrrm, me – got the numbers he submitted, wrong.
Better yet, my first thought was it was the fault of the air conditioning unit we had just bought.
Then when I came to my senses and realized even that couldn’t contribute that much of an increase to the electricity usage, the electricity company didn’t automatically realise it was an innocent mistake by a stupid customer, and said they would need to launch an investigation.
AN INVESTIGATION.
Suddenly your week feels a lot better now doesn’t it.
