Behaving like a bus.
I am. Nothing for ages, then three at once. After my last post, I went round the corner to the garage, because we were out of chocolate biscuits and sometimes you just need chocolate biscuits. Ahead of me in the … Continue reading
Not finished yet.
Apparently I was wrong about the twos. Remember this? It’s the lockdown library on the end of the drive. Books on the cart, jigsaws in the wheeled box, sweets in the wire basket. Today I was putting the cart out, … Continue reading
