In Which We...

Did bits and pieces. Sometimes you wonder where the day goes you do a bit of this and a bit of that and before you know it, it is teatime.
I began the day with a pile of ironing, mostly the bedding which needs a lot of ironing with it being Egyptian Cotton. Gorgeous bedding to sleep on, but my word it does get creased in the washing machine. Never mind it is worth it. VT started to do some clearing up, and sorted out a pile of papers that have been creeping up. He went to sort the little cat out next door, and she was sitting in the window waiting for him. It's a lovely little ginger girl with a funny tail that has a bump at the end. very independant,but he has got it beautifully trained now. It will be six weeks tomorrow that they went away, and no idea when she is coming back.
Jane rang up at lunchtime...she is a naughty girl because she hasn't rung for about three weeks, but she said she is at home and hasn't anything interesting to say. As if that matters!! She finally has an appointment for the special injections that she needs on the 23rd, so hope that will help.
VT went to post a letter and came back to say that a bloke doing some work in the end house said there was some room in the skip if he wanted to use it. So he came in and got rid of quite a few bits from the garden that needed throwing away.
Talking of skips...I always remember the sketch in "One Foot in the Grave" where Victor Meldrew had a skip and the next morning it was full..including a 2CV car perched on top" Hilarious.
The men were laying gravel in the garden of the end house and they had too much so they gave VT some, and the Dentist two doors down took two whellbarrow loads for their front garden. Quite a little community our road.
Tonight we are having:
Moussaka with root vegetables, mushrooms and a cheese sauce topping.
