I've been stuck on "hold" for the last three quarters of an hour.

At least it's in a queue for a web chat rather than me being sat on the phone. Means I can do other things while I wait.

Like hand wash some face masks and socks, and scroll through an archive of stock car photos. I'm looking for photos of a yellow & blue Higman superstox running #165 (1986 / 1987) as it's the same one I've been modelling, but being driven by its subsequent owner. I could always use some extra pictoral details, even though I know the front bumper and grille has been altered.

I have the rocket glue on order, hopefully I'm not allergic, as I'd really like to finish the model.

I am still stuck on hold.

I would have hung up by now.

It's a web chat - I can leave it running. The only other alternative is whats app, which I don't have, or go outside in the cold and rain to make the call on their own service number. I can't use a landline and any mobile signal here is shite.

Damned if I do, damned if I don't. I will try again from scratch later this evening.

I've been filing some dents out of an ally crank arm which I picked up this morning . It looked someone had been using it like a hammer.
I've polished it up now and it is looking like chrome .

Almost time to feed the cats, and then it will be time to feed me.

It really does like someone has taken a hammer to it! At both ends. I wonder why that might have been.

My phone is now 100% charged and happy. For now...

I'm beginning to think there's no one in the phone provider's office...

It's been like this for a while, and I really don't want to lose my number when the PAYG service shuts...

Who'll be your new service provider? Get in touch with them and have them do the work.
