NINE OFF

WEDNESDAY - Trying to purchase some railway sleepers and fence posts and other timbers to build a pergola and a sleeper wall .I 'am not having much success never mind I reckon timber merchants and d.i.y shops will be some of the first to open maybe in the next few weeks if it is deemed safe to do use , of course its not essential but it would make sitting out in the garden look a lot better .


It is amazing what you crave when you cant easily get things the other week it was strawberries this week it is apple pie and ice cream .Have not been to a decent size supermarket for a few weeks I could do with going to get the other items I cant get from the farm shops .


Bought some cleaning wipes and hair gel bought more hand soap just in case its there if we need it .
Ordered some blank cd discs and covers for Helen 100 of each .Might order her a water colour set of paints she has been watching You Tube and now thinks she can paint should be a laugh .She was totally blown away by the tobacco tin I bought her close the lid the cigarette pops out she though it was high tech magic her little faced beamed was worth it .

Another thing Helen learnt is you don't have to transfer money into pay pal to pay for purchases online she didn't know they used her debit card that it came out directly she though you need funds in pay pal  account to pay for your items.

FRIDAY - Break up tonight for a whole nine days off hopefully we will get some sun and we can chill in the back garden .

SATURDAY - Got a call for the wood I had ordered they are delivering it tomorrow between ten and four including the railway sleepers so I have enough to do the borders and to do the pergola I also ordered a water feature it s the same twin oak barrels we had before , I had to order 15m of outdoor cable and a weather proof junction sleeve so should be all set to go in time for summer .
