The Anonymous Widower

Taxis In The Rain

it is raining hard tonight.  But one of the advantages is that I live near the old 641 trolley bus route and taxi drivers still use it as the cut back to the City and Liverpool Street station, as the road is wide.  So despite the rain, a guest who was going to a function in the City tonight had no difficulty getting a black cab.

But it’s raining so hard, that I’ve got a slight leak in my glass roof! At least I brought a bucket with me to London.

  1. You were lucky – we had water pouring through the hall lamp socket – must have travelled from a crack in the balcony about 10 feet into the house. And the front door frame is warped – we’re struggling to get out. I think it’s time to find a handyperson, ie not me – know anyone?

  2. I don’t know anyone particularly. But I do generally know what to do. Although I’m not much of a muscle man these days. If you’re still stuck this afternoon, give me a call. I’ve got to take a guest to the station first. The joys of older houses. With this new one, it was only a little leak.
