Mon 230323 Phoned S/spoke to O...selling fish on eBay

1 PM I received 2 parcels both ordered from off ebay...

- Slime package (playing toy)/it said to place in fridge for 3 hours before using.

- A pocket book: VBScript in a nutshell.

I left eBay feedback for the book/but, the slime package...I just told the seller I would try it later; and, then, leave feedback. 

6 PM I phoned S who said last week they were sick with Covid; apparently, they are feeling a little bit better, now, though.

The person who picked up the phone initially was O; and, they said there we running an eBay business online; where they were selling of the excess fish babies they had. So, I went to check out their eBay store; and, sure enough, everything they said was true. Apparently, they've sold 2 fish so far...each  for £5.00/with P&P costs of around £20.00/(£19.xx).

I decided to 'favourite' their eBay store; and, send them a message of congratulations.

Then, S came in stating they should be doing homework; so, I should drop the phone in order to not distract them, anymore.

I asked S, did you view the email I sent you, recently; they said, no, they were sick. So, I simply left things at that. Was told to call back, later...

Thu 160323 Went Ingeus...arrived late. Was unable to see advisor/given next appointment date.

I tried waking up early to go and see Ingeus...at around 8 AM. The actual appoinment was 10 AM...one has to take into account 1/2 and hour/up to 1 hour travelling time to get there by bus, as well. Thus, it's necessary to leave home, at least, 1 hour early. I believe I ended up leaving home at close to 10 AM; which, obviously, is far too late! When I did actually arrive there...had to change busses...232 to Brixton/then, a next bus, forgot the number...to Stockwell tube station. I arrived at Ingeus office at around 10:35 PM; and, signed in. Previously, I had eaten a lot...so, all of the effort of running there...made me feel sick. I went into the toilet, twice; it took me 15 minutes long to leave the toilet, again. When I came out...the receptionist informed me that my advisor: Ngad...would not be able to see me, today; so, she will call me to give me a different appointment date. Arriving back home, Ngad, did phone me...and, I explained to her that I had been ill inside of the toilet. She gave me her mobile phone number; and, said if you are ill you do not need to come in...just simply give her a phone call to explain, instead. Finally, she gave me 2 further dates...one for the phone meeting/and, another for face to face meeting.

Wed Received 2 eBay parcels: Training shoes(2nd hand)/1 VBScript book

RECEIVED 2 PAIRS OF TRANING SHOES FROM OFF EBAY

 Previously, I had gone to eBay...to see if I could buy training shoes cheaply. I saw that some auctions had a starting price of 0.99 - 5.00; so, I decided to make a few bids.

 I won 3 bids, altogether; and, today, Wednesday, 2 of the training shoes I'd won arrived. 1 shoe was a bit too tight; and, the other was ok. I went and left the appropriate eBay feedback.

 NOTES: Still waiting for my next pair of training shoes to arrive...

Concerning eBay auctions...as well as, the cost of the actual shoes itself...which others can bid on...to make the original price rise up and up...; one also has to take into account cost of Postage & Packing...which is, usually, around £4.00.

RECEIVED 1 x VBSscript PROGRAMMING BOOK


I also ordered from off eBay 1 x VBScript programming book: VBScript programming in a nutshell. -(I'd ordered 2...; but, only received 1 so far to date.)

Tue 140323 Upstairs roof collapsed: plaster/wood fell down...gap: 6ft x 4ft...exposed wooden beams







Somewhere around 1 to 2 PM...I heard a loud noise coming from upstairs. When I went upstairs to go and investigate...by opening up the bedroom door; I saw there was a huge gap in the ceiling: 6ft by 4ft...leaving exposed wooden beams; then, when I looked downwards...I saw that the ceiling tiles/plaster/wood had been left lying on the floor. Natually, I got a bag into which I deposited all of the debris; and, took this bag to go empty it half way down the road inside of the public tip.

This situation is extremely scary...; because, what if the rest of the roof collapses, next...?! Then, there would be no protection left from either the rain/nor, insects.

Wed 080323 Latest updates...

Missed signing on last 2 weeks ago...I honestly thought it was Wed -and, NOT Thu-; however, luckily enough, I managed to get away with it. My last Ingeus 'face to face' meeting...I arrived there too late. They made a next appointment. Missed Ingeus phone call appointment, I think, it was 2nd/3rd March; but, I still have a face to face meeting with them on the 16th March. I was meant to go to Brixton/MI Solutions to do a Level I Maths training course; but, didn't go. So, that appointment/training is, automatically, cancelled. I spoke to my friend Sunnil -who lives in Tulse Hill- on Facebook Messenger...updating him on what are my current circumstances. Today, this evening, I just went and brought some trainers from off eBay...at at ridiculous price: £21.00+ (including P&P charges); paid using my CP credit card. In all I owe them over £420.00 in debt still to be repaid. Got £60.00 left to pay towards next years TV Licence. Need to get in contact with the Physio people ASAP. House is absolutely 'freezing'...just like living inside of a 'fridge'. Have to hold on to a hot water bottle in order to keep warm.

So, currently, I'm leaving all lights 'on'...up until when that electricity runs out... when I should be able to top up, again. -(NOTE: I did try phoning British Gas before...; to explain I need the voucher credits to go upstairs...; but, they said, no, they can't change it...as it's set once per year.
