nothing comes easily

It is a universally acknowledged fact that nothing that is worthwhile comes to us easily. If this is in fact true, then the mooring at Fradley must be really worthwhile!
I phoned British Waterways this morning to arrange to meet someone at Fradley so they could show me exactly where the mooring and facilities are. I commented that I had been down already but there seems to be boats moored all along the stretch where my mooring is to be. The woman I was speaking to said 'yes, there are'. I asked which one was moving and she replied 'it looks like none of them'! I pointed out that BW had advertised the mooring, let us bid for it and have now taken my money for it and I couldn't believe they would do that without actually having a mooring available! Her only reply was that she had only just taken over the job from someone else and she would have to talk to them about it.
I have extracted a promise from her to meet me at Fradley on the 8th - the day I start paying for the mooring. If there is no mooring on that date then surely they will have to refund my money or find me another mooring? After all I have now given notice at Barton so I can't stay there after the end of the month.
How do I feel about all this? Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!!!!!!!!
I'll keep you posted!
