Here I am again, turning up early.
First of all, I've said it on the dedicated thread but once again won't hurt, Happy birthday to Viktoria.
Diary:
Haven't done much today. Woke a little bit later, gave in and washed my hair today. No-one to see it but I don't like the feel of it if it's not clean.
Garden waste bin was emptied today, brought it through to the back and put all the excess stuff in it that I'd had stacked in the garden, it was half full again. It was still windy but nowhere near as bad as the last couple of days so decided to try and rectify the damage to the fence coverings. Removed the torn plastic sheeting, such a mess, then fastened the new one on with cable ties but I must not have fastened them right as they soon came undone. Decided I'd have to tie them on with string. While I was doing that I heard the nosey nasty neighbour (NNN) at the front, then within a couple of minutes she came along the path at the other side of the fence supposedly to put something in the bin. I knew she was still there snooping so I put the bins back and slammed one against the fence, she couldn't help exclaiming. I'm so sick of being spied on. Left my tools outside and came indoors.
Made amendments to my supermarket order, due for delivery tomorrow.
Went back outside and completed what I was doing as NNN had gone back indoors.
Had lunch then went for my walk, the path through the woods was littered with debris from the trees, kicked some of the larger pieces off the path, don't want any cyclists coming a cropper. Was thinking it would be quieter tomorrow as it's Monday but of course it's bank holiday so unlikely to be quiet.
Spent the rest of the afternoon on the phone to friends. My friend who lives near the beach said it's mobbed down there again despite the weather being mostly cloudy. The council decided to shut the car parks but it just means that people are parking in the high street and in residential streets. That wouldn't matter so much if people behaved themselves but a lot of them don't maintain social distancing or consider others in any way. A couple had parked their car on the slipway the other day, the handbrake didn't hold it and it rolled onto the beach. They tried to drive it off and inevitably got stuck in the sand, a fisherman pulled the car out with his tractor. What idiots for parking on the slipway anyway, it's not unknown for people to park on the lifeboat slipway, they're even worse.
Haven't done anything else today, oh well there'll be another day pretty much the same tomorrow.
RTL, hope your shift hasn't been to onerous.
Pat, thanks for the tips about making face masks with ties.
Hope everyone is well and had a decent day.
