It turns out my fury yesterday was justified after all, as the architect wrote to say that actually the taps would look more beautiful on the counter, don’t you think? I lay on my face for a while, possessed with rage, much to the GF’s obvious distress, but there is not much to be done at this stage and we have to move in at the end of the month, and days after that I leave the country.
So yes, blind rage, but finally I got up and wrote a curt reply about our frustration at all the mistakes and then the GF went to select and purchase a tap. I suggested that I come as well, but was gently told no, as having a thundercloud to his side was unnecessary where there was already one overhead (it is grey, wet and cold today).
Anyway.
