A moving tune, which contains the lyrics "Is there a time..."
Which ties in with tonight's post.
Last night I talked about waiting for the right time. Tonight I ask, is there ever a right time for things to go wrong?
Allow me to explain in more detail.
0727 on a week day morning is not a good time in our house. It's a busy time that normally involves Babs and I running around with bits of toast in one hand, and a shirt that needs ironing in another. Showers are timed to perfection - one out, one in - and getting Samuel ready is done with military precision - pants, t shirt, jeans, sock, shoes, wash, teeth .....
It is definitely NOT the time you want to hear your wife asking you to come downstairs "QUICKLY!". Nor is it the time you want to hear the sound of tap-tap-tap as water drips from your dining room ceiling.
But that's what happened this morning in our house!
(Ironically as I wrote that last paragraph, the music had changed to Stone Roses - Waterfall!).
Just what's needed. A big week at work, a weekend of partying, and no time to be phoning builders / plumbers / people who fix wet ceilings and leaking things!
So I ask you, is there ever a 'right' time for things to go wrong ?
As it happens, it doesn't look like too much of an issue, just a new seal around the bath (we hope).
Other than that, the day has been sunny and busy.
Although my car CD player did act itself on the way home from work, but that seems to have sorted itself out now.
As Bono said ..... "Dici che il fiume, Trova la via al mare" (You say that the river, finds the way to the sea) ........ yeah, through my dining room by the looks of it!
