The latest episode in Pez's Moving House Adventures!

Episode 5: The Van Breaks Down!

Half an hour before the scheduled moving time, the man part of the man&van calls Pez to tell her he can't help her move because his van has just broken down!!!

What will happen???

Stay tuned for this dramatic episode!!!!!!!!11!111!1!



Seriously. I'd headdesk, only I have no desk now since it's been disassembled. I'm stealing someone's wireless network using the laptop atm.

It seems like I've found someone else who can help me move tonight. I'll keep my fingers crossed.



[edit] ee! You guys are interested in the WK posters? I'll post pics up after I've successfully moved house XD

And! I just called the telephone people, they said that the line in the new place hasn't been used for some time so they have to send someone to check if the equipment is still up to date before they can connect me. /If/ they have to replace the equipment, I'd have to pay over £100.

And the earliest day they can send someone to check? 5th Dec. =_=

>_> Well, of telephone companies, I expect no better. :(( I had to do the same thing when I changed to a different firm, the german telekom people never give you up without a fight, so I had to pay for them coming out here twice to flip a bloody switch, 180€ total. Of course, that doesn't change that it SUCKS to be without phone fore so long. *enraged*

I'm so sorry you have to go through all of this alone. I really do wish I could just fly over and help, or at least give you someone to vent at... :(

*sigh* At least BT has customer service. When I called, instead of holding me in a queue, they took down my number with an automated service and called me back within half an hour. I don't mind not having a phone, but without the line I can't have net T___T and god knows how long it'd take to get net after I got the line.....

♥ Tez-plush can tell you all about my ranting....

It's ridiculous that they always need the phone line to 'work' first. But yeah, I know what you are talking about... Three weeks in Paris with NOTHING to do and Drae working almost made me want to throw myself dramatically into the Seine. Sad but nevertheless true. *pokes at BT* It will take extra time to get the net running even if you take net service from BT?? That's the only advantage here, that if you take the dsl from the Dt. Telekom, at least you will have it more or less as soon as you have a phone line. (See also: Ina's 6 weeks of Horror last year.)

Poor boy. But at least you have him. *huggles you both, and Niou*

Yeah. And well, because I'm going to take the phone line with BT and register for ADSL with a different company, so.... BT Broadband = hell, afaik, so I'd rather wait a bit longer. The ISP I'm going to use is apparently very good though!

I don't know what I'd do without him! As a reward, I'm going to take him to see Tenimyu at Christmas XD

Yeah, that seems prudent. Is BT still the only telephone company, or just the best of the choices you are given? (Here, in most cities at least, you can get a different phone provider, also.)

^___^ I've been following your discussions about the tickets. I'm so happy you're going to be there seeing stuff you'll really have fun seeing, even though man, the prices are insane. It makes me want to rant about the way tickets are sold in Japan in general, it all seems so absolutely unfair. (Why through such an idiotick ticketing system, why don't they book bigger arenas, why do they only seel tickets to certain bads' concerts to fanclub members etc. etc...)

Tokyo at Christmad should be magical. <3

There are a few other choices, but BT is generally the one everybody uses. They also have good customer service and don't bombard you with telemarketing calls. I was with another company before and they called often about "refer a friend" schemes, usually calls made by guys with such heavy Indian accent I thought they breathed curry. XD;

Yes~! I don't understand why they do the ticketing this way neither, but hopefully I should be able to see performance(s) at a reasonable-ish price, since I've given up aiming for the very front rows. XD Can probably fund most of the costs using money I got from selling junk, too! :D And luckily, Tez-plush wouldn't need a ticket, because he's so small. *awwww*

♥ I'm so excited about it. When I get stressed I just think "holiday in Japan YAY" and everything seems a bit better. XD

But anyway, I'm feeling okay now. ♥ this broken down van thing didn't hit me very hard, since my luck's been so bad that it's just another thing on the list! But after I've moved, the first thing I'll do is buy a lottery ticket. After all this bad luck, surely I'll rebound...?

I think sitting in the front rows would make your neck hurt, anyway!! :/ But then, I haven't been at a performance, so I really have no idea what I am talking about. It just looked uncomfy from on the dvds. It is very looky Tez-plush doesn't need a ticket. Though I'm sure you would buy him one, anyway! :P

I can imagine the upcoming holiday being the only thing to keep you sane. I always do much the same thing when things go bad like that! And Tokyo has a lot to offer. :)) Do you know where you're staying? I'm sorry if you said it before, I might've missed it, but I'm curious. :)

*kicks idiotic van* I guess at some point things just start being funny instead of horrible. And yeah, do the lottery ticket thing! You never know... >:))

Lucky, I meant to say. Sorry, I didn't get much sleep tonight. >_>
