My mobile phone contract isn't even in my own name
|
God, I can't stand Radio 4. In fact, I'm starting to despise all television and radio. Maybe I'm turning into Victor Meldrew already. After all, M**** and I have been watching quite a bit of 'One Foot in the Grave' recently. I'm not sure why we've been watching this; it's only funny about 2% of the time. But, erm . . . no, you see . . . the title of this entry is something I heard on Radio 4. Some guy had recently turned deaf and, well, christ, I would imagine that introduces all manner of problems for a person who has been able to hear throughout their life. But, to cap it all, to really rub salt into the wounds, his god damn mobile phone company wouldn't even let him have a contract in his own name. It was that bad. In this situation, the ordinary man would take his business elsewhere, to a mobile phone provider who was slightly more flexible, more understanding. To quote one of my favourite sayings, "Better to light a candle than curse the darkness," which, conversely, is something I can't imagine ever coming out of Victor's mouth. Margaret, maybe, but not Victor.
