Sid Smith,
on whom derision's poured
Because, I
fear, he is a fraud
Back in
March he promised then
To make me
panels for a pen
To give my
cats a place to play
Safe, where
they cannot go astray.
Such panels
he had made before
Well-wrought,
they were, without a flaw
But by the
ending of July
I fear with
my cash he did fly.
Sid is, I
fear, a rotten scunner
And with my
money did a runner.
'Quality
Hutches and Runs' he makes
Alas, it
seems he is a fake
His
reputation can get slighter
Because he
has pissed off a writer.
Title says it all, really. I really hate people who don’t do their jobs (we have only been waiting to get the parking spots in our building marked for two years and don’t get me started on the Italian mail service. Or the American one)
ReplyDeleteI hope your cats get their pen soon.
Many thanks. It's a lot of money to just write off, and I am not really well enough to make the ruddy panels myself so I am muchly ticked off about the matter - and my cats could have had much more room and comfort outside during the heatwave. I don't know if we'll still have Leo next summer, and I really, really resent it on the behalf of all of them.
DeleteI was having a go at British mail on my FB timeline only the other day ...
In the vernacular of my homeland:
ReplyDeletethat boy going down!
Never piss off a writer.
I warned him twice. I've also reported him to Paypal. Dilatory is one thing, but I think this is more than enough
