A quick trip down to the post office to send off some gifts for the family, I’m not sure why we do it as it cost three times the value of the contents.
We dragged the dogs around the lagoon, it was a while since we did it last. Poor Dharma is struggling, but we had a support that loops under her tummy and I carry her weight.
Just after midday the couple arrived with the six dining chairs. There is a lot of preparation ahead, but it will be a good little earner.
The ply piece I bonded into the side panel worked a treat, I was then able to cut in a piece of veneer to finish it off.
There was another job that I had put off for a year, checking the outside Christmas lights.
They have stayed in the cupboard for twelve months. I attempted to use them last year but they did not illuminate. At the time I couldn’t be bothered to find out which lamps were faulty.
I wrestled with one of the strings checking each bulb with a magnifying glass, removing the dead ones. With a pile of twenty duds, I then went through the other two strings selecting bulbs to replace them. Finally with everyone replaced I plugged it in, absolutely nothing, I cursed. That was it, I threw it back on the floor and called it a day.
