One of the most stressful tasks for the logically challenged can be getting local service providers to carry out urgently needed repairs. So perhaps it is not surprising that some of the most memorab le complaints were clearly written in haste:
I am writing on behalf of my sink, which is coming away from the wall.
Our lavatory seat is broken in half and is now in three pieces.
I wish to report that tiles are missing from the outside toilet roof. I think it was bad wind the other night that blew them off.
Will you please send a man to look at my water. It is a funny colour and not fit to drink.
The toilet is blocked and we cannot bath the children until it is fixed.
I am a single woman living in a downstairs flat and would you please do something about the noise made by the man I have on top of me every night.
Fifty per cent of the walls are damp. We have two children and would like a third, so please send someone round to do something about it.
I want some repairs done to my cooker as it has backfired and burnt my knob off.
