While the cat's away

I have transformed my father's workshop; it has become the 'garden room'. The stone cutting and polishing machines are now in pieces, most of which I took to the local tip and dumped in the scrap metal skip. Two heavy bits remain for me to decide how to recycle.

This blog contains a lot of tales about my trips to the tip. That's what my life has been like during the past two months, countless trips to the tip. I am trying to clear out junk from my parents' house before the local council weighs cars on entry and exit and charges for the weight of rubbish dumped. This week there will be no general rubbish collection, it's now two-weekly, a so-called improvement, so I await with interest to see how full wheelie bins are next week.

The garden room has a table and chairs, and vase of honeysuckle. I feel slight regret at having thrown away the roll of lino a few weeks ago. The current lino, now visible, has seen better days. The radio that could receive only LW and I chucked out would also come in useful now. Why is it that you suddenly find a use for something three weeks after you throw it away?

My mother has more saucepan lids than saucepans. Dare I throw the surplus ones away or will that make the missing saucepans appear?

Thought for today
A lot of fellows nowadays have a B.A., M.D., or Ph.D. Unfortunately, they don't have a J.O B.

I have all four. Does that make me complete, I wonder?
