These photos are specially to help Dale with his Welsh lessons!
Life in north east England (yes, we've moved!) with an eccentric Welshman and a small white dog that thinks he's a Rottweiler.
New carpet
If all goes well, the new carpet for the living room will be arriving and being laid, but of course, that is dependent on the furniture being out of the way. Most of it is easy enough, except...and regular readers will be able to pre-empt me here...except for NASA, with its ton of cables nestling underneath like a mini mount Snowden.
"Would you like to start clearing the shelf?" I enquired, very reasonably, I thought.
"Not likely! You must be joking! What??? No way, Jose!!!" was the gist of the reply.
"The problem is," I continued, still being reasonable, logical even, "the carpet can't be laid unless that corner of the room is cleared."
"I can do it tomorrow," he said plaintively.
Watch this space...

Weekend shopping
Jobs done this weekend:
Bought a new shed for the garden
Bought new carpet for the living room and laminate for the dining room
Broke up old fence panels
Cut up sawn off branches from trees at bottom of garden
Mowed the lawn
Bought bedding plants for the pots on the patio and planted them.
Keith is worried about the new carpet. He is afraid of what I will do to him if he gets it dirty as he has done with the old one.
He is right to be afraid....!
However, the new shed is big enough to take NASA and him if necessary. Well, it's the new thing, isn't it - working from your garden shed? :)
