Not happy with the council. Went down to their offices because I was getting no sense on the 'phone so wanted to speak to someone in person. They don't allow that. They simply sat me down, dialed someone's extension, and let me talk to them on the house 'phone. Did not even get to see them through a sheet of glass, like in prison - I was in the lobby, they were upstairs somewhere. Bloody waste of a day.

And the reason I wanted to see them: They sent me a letter while in hospital, I obviously did not get it until I returned home, but I 'phoned them as soon as I did. This was too late for them, so they are fining me the equivalent of over $600 for replying late. They accept that I had never received the letter, as I was in hospital. But that is no excuse - apparently I am obliged to be psychic, and because I wasn't, I have to pay the fine. Not at all happy, want to kill the lot of them.
