They tried very hard to claim their meter wasn't broken, despite a visible flood still pouring out of it; turning off the water entirely to show the meter still running was the final proof.=Tamarnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8466385.post-90206255433167019362010-03-18T14:44:23.803+00:002010-03-18T14:44:23.803+00:00Jean, I so enjoy following your varied interests. ...Jean, I so enjoy following your varied interests.

It was for ten thousand dollars. So I called the power company and said "I've got a bill that's wrong here." and the woman on the other end got all snippy and said "How do you KNOW?" and I replied "Well, it's for ten thousand dollars, and I'm not the hospital. In fact, I'm in an apartment." Dead silence on the other end. <br /><br />Good luck. I hope your electric bills get cut way back. And I can't wait to see what you knit next.Juliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11710658334966849773noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8466385.post-87397949907980836492010-03-18T12:54:45.981+00:002010-03-18T12:54:45.981+00:00I will tell your tell around here, it will justify...I will tell your tell around here, it will justify my husband's habit of keeping all utility bills forever.Mary Louhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05588244535423212079noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8466385.post-48050414806824896632010-03-18T12:26:58.723+00:002010-03-18T12:26:58.723+00:00I, too, have significant Koigu stash, and had trou...I, too, have significant Koigu stash, and had trouble actually getting the pattern after I paid for it. It was solved more or less immediately by them emailing it directly. She explained that they have upgraded their security system, and it isn't quite tweaked yet.

It would perhaps look better with a little more fullness so that the jabot falls into folds, more like the one above (where the wearer is showing how he ties it).<br /><br />I will look forward to seeing James modelling the end result.<br /><br />DawnDawn in NLnoreply@blogger.com
