frausorge for the postcard that arrived today. It was a very lovely surprise and it's always great hearing from you ♥
I keep thinking about this and laughing.
A while back we ordered some face masks, and yesterday they arrived. Opened the package and was confronted with a ski mask, not a face mask, and not only that but a ski mask that has a hole for the nose making it entirely unsuitable for what we need it for. It's an amazing thing, with a scarf bit that goes down your neck and bits that go up over your ears, but so not what we need. I mean, check it out. As my brother suggested, all I need is a hat and swag bag and I could go out and rob some shops. Thankfully, some really lovely people have hooked me up with the mask I actually need, so all will be well in the end.
Yesterday we also did some clearing in the garden ready for the fence man to come tomorrow. That included shifting a load of rubbish from the dumping ground, cutting ivy and then burning a load of rubbish. I was well and truly smoked and dirty by the end, but it'll be worth it when the new fence and gate is in place. No more moving the heavy cat statue to get out or propping the fence up with the recycling bin, it's like a dream.
It was the first time I'd used our fire pit and apart from the smoke, I can see the appeal of sitting in the rocking chair next to a fire. Though smokeless fuel will be so much better than old sticks and foliage.
