Progress Report

David, bless his heart doing his best to help with my "yellow" problem...!

The problem is: I have an exact shade of yellow in mind to paint the dining room at home.

You'd think finding a colour-card in the same colour, and getting paint made up to that shade would work...

But no, you'd be wrong!

I've found 2 colour cards and had paint made up, but when I've painted the walls, the colour hasn't matched the colour card.

So, therefore, didn't match the colour in my head!

Unfortunately, the colours David came up with had already been discounted as not soft enough! But nice try!
Seriously, though, his collar bone is healing, but he's not been signed off yet; there is still a section of the break that has not joined up yet. He's got almost full function back, so is not worried.

I'm hoping the next time he goes to the hospital he gets the "all clear".

AND that he makes that his last visit to hospital for a long time!

Progress...

Or not...

Who knows?

We still haven't had any response from Dominique, and are nearly at the point (I hope!) that this could be slowing up starting work on the house again.

The latest news is that, with M. Boyer's help, we have contacted our house insurers (both the insurance company and their legal advice section). Originally, when David spoke to them, they both said 'try the other one' and 'we don't do that'...

I'm guessing the computer said "no!"... But M. Boyer said it was worth setting it all out in a letter, and trying again.

Which we did - we still got referred to the other part of the company by one half (can't remember which way round this is, sorry), but the other half has at least asked for further details...

Needless to say, we are keeping our fingers crossed.

We have also written to Dominique's insurers, to try to claim for the work he did before he stopped paying the premiums...

So again, fingers crossed.

We are also going to write a letter to Dominique giving him one last chance to deal with M. Boyer before we start legal proceedings against him.

Everything is taking so long, that it seems daft not to start proceedings!

And who says we have to continue...?

And, equally, who says we have to tell Dominique that we might not see it through to the bitter end!
