Easy life.....

We have a simple time of it us foster carers....

Having spent half the morning on social worker bent.

Dealt with a couple of them, then out to the woodyard to collect unfeasible quantities of wood in a huge trailer behind the fantastic Xantia.

Easily back to the house with rather a lot of timber dangling off the rear.

This was going to make it very easy to reverse and turn round in the yard especially as I have had a green goddess shuffle and a few of them are not in ideal positions..

At this point we needed more excitement so of course we got it. Whosshh fuel was gushing everywhere.

Hmm. I thought, not supposed to do that.....

So we decided there was only one thing to do - stop for lunch.


Lots of digging round under the bonnet traced the fault and whats more I rectified it too.

Just as well - the man from DHL came to join the carnage.

So I had to some complex trailer reversing to get him out and up the drive.

Onwards and upwards off we went again. 100 fence posts in the trailer, and we are back.

Another complex reverse in store and a big unloading job. Delegate that one I think.

The man himself Taliesin was mad to get this project moving, so he can get the posts moving too.

Of course I should be writing something profound about events on the world stage. Our life has gone on around it...
