1. And their 18 year old son is continually banging his balls against my fence.
2. My bush is really overgrown round the front and my back passage has fungus in it.
3. Please send a man with the right tool to finish the job and satisfy my wife.
4. I want some repairs done to my cooker as it has backfired and burnt my knob off.
5. Our lavatory seat is broken in half and is now in three pieces.
6. The man next door has a large **** in the garden, which is unsightly and dangerous.
7. The toilet is blocked and we cannot bath the children until it is cleared.
8. 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.
9. I want to complain about the farmer across the road, every morning at 6:00am his **** wakes me up and its now getting too much for me.
10. Will you please send someone to mend the garden path, my wife tripped and fell on it yesterday and now she is pregnant?
11. He's got this huge tool that vibrates the whole house and I just can't take it any more.
12. I am writing on behalf of my sink, which is coming away from the wall.
13. Our kitchen floor is damp. We have two small children and would like a third so please send someone round to do something about it.
14. I have had the clerk of the works down on the floor six times but I still have had no satisfaction.
15. I wish to report that the tiles are missing from the outside toilet roof. I think it was that bad wind the other night that blew them off.
16. I request permission to remove my drawers in the kitchen. 50% of the walls are damp, 50% have crumbling plaster and the rest are plain filthy.

Upon arriving home, a husband was met at the door by his sobbing wife. Tearfully she explained, "It's the druggist. He insulted me terribly this morning on the phone. I had to call multiple times before he would even answer the phone."
Immediately, the husband drove downtown to confront the druggist and demand an apology. Before he could say more than a word or two, the druggist told him, "Now, just a minute, listen to my side of it. This morning the alarm failed to go off, so I was late getting up. I went without breakfast and hurried out to the car, just to realize that I had locked the house with both house and car keys inside and had to break a window to get my keys. Then, driving a little too fast, I got a speeding ticket.
"Later, when I was about three blocks from the store, I had a flat tire. When I finally got to the store a bunch of people were waiting for me to open up. I got the store opened and started waiting on these people, and all the time the darn phone was ringing off the hook.
"Then I had to break a roll of nickels against the cash register drawer to make change, and they spilled all over the floor. I had to get down on my hands and knees to pick up the nickels, and the phone was still ringing.
"When I came up I cracked my head on the open cash drawer, which made me stagger back against a showcase with a bunch of perfume bottles on it. Half of them hit the floor and broke. Meanwhile, the phone was still ringing with no let up, and I finally got back to answer it. It was your wife. She wanted to know how to use a rectal thermometer.
"And believe me mister, as God is my witness, all I did was tell her."
