You know those days where you are busy all day but have nothing to show for it?
Couple of them this week.
Some of you may recall that I built a small raised sandbox for Sallys grandson during Covid.
Sand was super expensive but my time was not.
Harry her older grandson always plays in it when he visits.
He has been joined by a brother, Alfie now, about a year old.
So the rime had come to replace the plywood lid and to repaint it more appropriately.
I used some checkered vinyl that was in the back of my 1963 Ford Taunus Transit.
Painted it all.
Then headed to Sallys place and painted the box.
Also made a new name and redecorated the step.
I will tackle the paving with my pressure washer some time in the next few weeks
Box done
New name plate and step painted.
And put together yesterday.
Sallys younger son, Ryan, was 24 this week.
His choice for a birthday dinner was a kebab and chiips from the kebab shop 200 meters from home.
I passed on my normal choice of fish and chips and went for a lamb kebab, salad and chips.
We also watched Topgun. Maverick on Netflix and Sally stayed awake for the whole movie.
Today is Saturday so shops are open.
I have a parcel to post.
The excess from the garage continues to sell out in fits and starts despite the number of illiterates not becoming any less.
Still, despite the irritation, cash is king.
