RECENTLY I WAS IN DREAM LAND BASKING IN MY WHITE THRONE
WHEN I WAS RUDELY AWAKENED BY THE DING DONG...I barely had a
chance to gather my thoughts when a nice Man from PSNC (Public Service of NC)
came to inspect our gas logs and fireplace.
Oh my cats he was the best service person ever. He took the top logs outside to give the a good cleaning. We've had gas logs for 20+ years. No one has ever done that.
I ran up the stairs lickety split just in case he decided to clean me too.
I'm glad it was only the logs that got cleaned, Madi!
ReplyDeleteWhat a fine man!
ReplyDeleteWe have a gas fire a bit like that here (imitation coal not logs), but Gail never turns it on 'cos she says it's like burning £5 notes. We think you are lucky that gas prices are so much cheaper in your country - less that 1/4 the price of ours.
Toodle pip!

We have electric heaters, but we don't pay for the electrics (our landlord does it for us). We just have to vacuum the filters every now and then to keep it working properly.

ReplyDeleteGood service is a special thing!!! LOVIN' your 'throne' Madi... Hugs and whiskeries, YAM-aunty xxx
That sure sounds like a great man that came and did that. Glad you ran upstairs Madi. You just never know where there is danger. You all have a terrific day.
ReplyDeletebrilliant idea... sometimes that worky men have crazy ideas... it seems you have a super good hand with that peeps... is there a special trick to pick them? or do you say a magic spell before you call them?
ReplyDeleteWow, we're very impressed. Hard to get good service these days. However, you were wise to supervise from a safe distance. And now you'll be warm and toasty this winter.
ReplyDeleteso glad you are safe with your clean logs and gas checked and also that you did not get locked in the computer room for his visit. love the light on you and your white throne to
ReplyDeleteWe're glad to hear your fireplace is in good working order and you didn't need a cleaning too. We have a gas fireplace too and love it.
ReplyDeleteGood thing Mom and and Dad have your ever watchful eye on that stranger. You made sure he did a good job didn't you Madi.
ReplyDeleteThat was a good idea. You wouldn't want anything to go wrong with that fireplace. We get our furnace/ac cleaned every year to keep it working well. I usually get stuck in ghostwriter's office whenever that happens.
ReplyDeleteWe never had a ding dong cleaner here pretty Madi!
ReplyDeleteYou always make sure things meet your standards, miss Madi!
ReplyDeleteIt's a nice change when someone decides to do a proper job instead of the usual half-a** one, BOL!
ReplyDeleteWe like to keep out of the way when repair peeps call too - that is, Elliot does, Cricket would lick everyone to death given half the chance.

OMC Madi... you did the RIGHT THINGY... One NEVER knows when a Cleaning Craze just might also involve US. RIGHT?
ReplyDeleteTHAT was very much nice of the Ding Dong Cleaner guy to do that fur you, though. Now you can curl up in front of those CLEAN LOGS this winter, and stay NICE and WARM.
Good idea Madi. I bet the fireplace keep you nice and warm.
ReplyDeleteThat was a very nice thing of that PSNC man to do, but we are very happy he didn't feel the need to give you an inspection too. Hope you have now resettled nicely into your beautiful throne.

Maybe next year Ma will gets a guy to clean her logs....☺
ReplyDeleteKisses,

We need that guy to come here and clean our logs!
ReplyDeleteYou are so funny Madi! But the top of the stairs is a great view to see the good job he did!
ReplyDeleteCleaning the logs - no-one here does that unless it is us doggies sharpening our teeth on them BOL We burn our logs and they smell really good. Best keep well out of the way when there is any cleaning going on though...Nose licks and love from Moth xx
