Thought for the day :"I've never understood the point in fire blankets. Whose ever been in a fire and thought, 'it's a bit chilly in here'."
A day at the Ranch. Quite a sunny and hot day - though later the sea mist came in and the temperature dropped rapidly.
Emptied the small trailer and put everything away - well most of it!
Was too hot to get on with the pathway - which was the plan for the day.
Had a sit instead an repaired some of the ornaments on the patio that are suffering from the weather.
Visited Vic at Arnedd and he was having a lazy day and had gone back to bed. But seemed very pleased to see us and is looking forward to seeing us again on his birthday next week.
Had a sit on the patio and got visited by a butterfly who seemed to like my hairy knees..
So, final trip to Llanelli tomorrow to pick up the large trailer - hoping it is not too heavy. Will take it very easy on the way back. But hopefully that will be the last time we will really need to go back there except to get some post.
Have notified the Councils of the empty house and here in Wales it appears that they give 6 months free instead of the paltry 1 month in England when we sold Barton.
Wish I had known that before - will lose out on a couple of months if the sale goes through quickly - a small price to pay...
Looks as though we will be looking after our neighbour's chickens for a few days, but that has a bonus as we have somewhere to keep the big trailer while they are away to block in their touring caravan in case of theft (not likely here but always possible)
In other news - started looking for a touring caravan to put in sluggers driveway to use as an extra bedroom.
Also started looking at Yurts - there are some lovely ones around... and within the current price range..
Finished stringing the banjo and tried playing - it hurts the fingers!!! May have a long way to go ...
and that about sums up the day ..
Cheers !
