Day 1
Fire at house next door.
Police and Fire Service have to break our front door to check if there are any occupants and if the fire had spread to our house, as we were not home. Thanks to the Police and Fire Service, fortunately no one was hurt.
Our house is full of smoke, have to open all the windows and doors, front door can be locked from inside but not from outside.
Legal and General said that it is not an emergency as the front door can still be locked from the inside.
ARM Locksmiths has no available replacement parts, will order for installation.
Vacuum cleaned floor, will have to sleep with smoke smell even with bedroom windows open.

I guess a number of people will be interested, and it's not doing any harm.
FWIW, my prediction is that a number of other posters will become sneering and offensive, and therefore MikeSuperZone will give up.How much are you after? ££££0 -
