Coat Hooks, the story unfolds

May I say that the level of frustration with respect to our recuperation of the hooks that have gone astray, is taking an inordinate amount of time.  The loss adjusters, who parade under the the name of Albatross and find their office in sunny Cyprus, seem to be taking their own sweet time to chivvy things along.

It is a case of the left hand not knowing what the right hand is doing...so confusion reigns and bureaucracy earns yet again the puny credentials so often evident where co-ordination and organisation should be paramount.  As it stands now, I could willingly take one super sized 28 cm Bullnoser Hook and create a oak framed hanging device, the purpose of which would be to hang as many of the salvager's team thereupon.  I bet we could manage three or four of them per hanging as long as a decent guage steel screw was used to secure the hook to the yard arm!  What a luverly thought.  Only trouble is, I probably would never recover the goods and I may end up on the end of my own hanging device as a grim reminder that time should be allowed to resolve such issues and being hot under the collar is not an attribute I should display, notwithstanding my Maltese roots!  Arrrgggghhhh.
