Default Today's Peeve Of The Day, Monday 20th February.

Good morning peevers.

Actually, I'm typing this on Sunday evening because I've got three deliveries and four separate tradesmen due here when I submit this thread.

I'm pleased that work starts in earnest today, but things are all happening at once!

Let's use that as an idea for the POTD;

It never rains, but it pours!

Well we've finally done some catching up with the rain lately. I prefer it rains and gets it over with quickly. So pouring is good... Having too many tasks or tradesmen to deal with at once ...not too good.

I dont mind when it pours, love the rain. But I love snow too.....
My peeve is when it only drizzles a little rain, just enough to dirty your cars.

After reading the posts, I have no idea whether this peeve is about contractors, rain or snow.

Same here!

Um, I meant it to be about how things all happen at once!

There's four of us all working well together at the moment, well there will be four of us once I get off the computer and back into the kitchen!
