Yesterday Amy went on her first date. A lad invited her to the cinema to see the latest Jurassic Park film.
We had not met him before now, but he seemed a nice chap so my baseball bat wasn’t required….
He opened the door for her and paid for the tickets and popcorn.
We watched them go in to the Odeon.
Yesterday was a busy day, test drove some EV cars (another today) and then lots of clearing in the garden. Real slash and burn tactics to get it all under control, at least the window to the back of the garage is usable, just need to carry on and remove the climing plant that’s all over the back of the roof!
Lots of clearing down the side of the house for access, removing holly bushes and opening up all the air bricks. This has probably caused some of the musty smell in some of the rooms as pretty much three sides of the house they were covered up with overgrown vegetation.
And inside, removing some of the old/dusty carpets to reveal some lovely floorboards, plan is to remove a lot of these old carpets (Viv is not doing well with the dust) and then look at replacing at a later date when budget allows.
And another area of the garden uncovered in the last couple of weeks. None of this was visable when we bought the house, removing lots of Ivy and Holly trees.
I assume this is an organised place.
Seriously good effort kids.
How times change , if I said to Marley let’s go scrumping today she’d look at me like talking a different language.
But that’s something we all did as kids around where I grew up.
A workmate regales everyone of his visit many years ago where everyone was ushered towards the barn. Moments later , the highlight of his visit . A pig eating weetabix off of a spoon.
I can honestly say the highlight of my visit was leaving.
Faffing around with an insurance company to get my bar bill paid.
Their standard travel and accident policy claim forms do not cover this and the person on the end of the phone acknowledges that I am covered, but has no idea how to process the claim.
All quite funny really
Today I have been updating my life …
I was dozy enough to have my main email address supplied by the ISP and now that they been given the Heave Ho that address will shut down. Changing addresses has mostly been OK but there are just a few that just why? why? why? does this have to be so difficult when we have 2 step authentication.
I’m calming down now with an early glass of Malbec.
It is quite cleansing to delete all those old contacts/suppliers who you’ve not been in contact with for years.I feel so young and freee [in my dreams]!
