Apologies for my absence
And, for those of you who remember The Shed Saga, I have an update: The Lodge (summerhouse) was delivered and erected last November, before the first snow of winter-just as I predicted! My friend took up residence after it was officially opened by the local Undertaker (minus his top hat and somber expression.) I was invited to her "Welcome to my new Shed" celebration party, a late night affair full of dancing, singing, swearing and mayhem, enjoyed by her 30 friends and their guests. Until a miserable, cantankerous, stroppy neighbour knocked on the door to complain-and half the guests fell out into a heap in the garden. They looked exactly like the bit in The Chicken Run where the trainee-escapees jump off a roof onto a huge pile of other chickens. And that neighbour was the one at the bottom of this heap! Hooray! My friend's mother now sleeps in total silence but people over a mile away are still scratching their heads wondering 'What the hell was that noise?' I am considering buying my friend "A permanent cure for snoring" for Xmas.
bye for now.
