The reason for taking three days off work this week was actually to do a bit of clearing out. All those old bits of hardware that seem to fill my office floor, desk, table etc. Cables galore! All those cardboard boxes that are kept, just in case. Screws, pieces of wood, paint pots and bits of wire that gather around my workbench in abundance. These three days were meticulously planned, a new broom would sweep through my cellar leaving it clean and clutter free!
Well…. I’m delighted to tell you I did make a start. If the truth be told, it was a somewhat half hearted start, but a start it was!
Unfortunately the weather was not on my side – OK, a feeble excuse I’ll agree, but it did make a difference. My plan did allow for a certain amount of ‘quality time’ of course, but with sunny days bringing out the spring in me, it was difficult to adhere to my original strict time schedule. So, after a quick removal of surface junk I ventured forth into the great outdoors and enjoyed myself.
Today Merlin and I took the post bus to the next village and meandered home through the early spring sunshine.
The marking posts will soon be removed I expect (marking the path for the snowplough) but March is always a bit unpredictable.
Still quite chilly, I couldn’t get much closer without getting my shoes full of icy water. Merlin peering into the picture top right.
