Dear Agony Auntie,

My house has cracks in the walls. Usually when people say 'moving house', they are actually referring to themselves, rather than their dwelling place. Not so in this instance.

It's now got tie bars which have restrained its peripatetic activities somewhat, and now I'm trying to find someone to paper over the cracks, so to speak.

However, no fewer than three so-called craftsmen fixed an appointment to survey the carnage, and not one of them has actually materialised. Do you think they've fallen through the cracks and into a warp in the space/time continuum? Should I report them as missing persons?

Your advice is eagerly awaited.

Yours,

Preston Rumblestrips, CBE

Shame you don't live here by the sea. There are plenty of Fissuremen you could have called on:¬)- quality work if you can put up with the smell.
