We have been taking our old settee apart. I have just been taking out the screws which hele steel plates in it which held it together for the last move more than 10 years ago. I cut the back off so the settee could be taken out through the door. When we bought it we had to get our front window taken out for it to go in. It's held together well all these years.

It's Black Bin Day today.

I've been out of the loop on bin news as I've not been in here much for a while.

But I regret to inform all binsters that I missed it today. Fortunately it was blue bin day so can stand a missed turn.

It's near enough to 1800 to declare the bar open.
I'm going to have a "Catref" G&T.
That's one that I could not would not afford to buy in a bar.

Another grey, damp, chilly and miserable day here chez Casa Reynard.

Slept reasonably well. Spent the morning moving and dealing with firewood - the area where I dumped all those large chunks of mulberry, pine and cherry plum is nearly cleared. One more go should see that done. The bottom layer is partially rotten, so it was a good decision to tackle this while it's been too soggy to go into the garden.

Had a lovely luncheon of a ham, cheddar and mustard sandwich, fruit and a

This afternoon has been vacuumed up by assorted kitchen tasks, as I'm doing a spot of batch cooking.

Have just had a and a biskit while watching the evening news, and now it's time for me to duck back into the kitchen.

Reassures you how little I really know. Won't bother with a ladder to burgle you then...
Sorry, meant as vaguely witty....like most of my ramblings.
