Itchy and Scratchy

I have got so many insect bites I don't know what to do with myself.

I have also managed to totally waste today - no culture, no packing, no drawing - nothing much at all apart from gym and detox cooking (just had stuffed courgettes - stunning, and I made asparagus and lemon soup for work next week, which smells great). I looked in the diary and realised that I will be completing on the house sale in just over 6 weeks. So I really ought to do something. I still haven't even written a list. But it's easier to procrastinate and potter and pretend it's not really happening.

I can just imagine me in 6 weeks' time, packing the house in one go the day before the removal van turns up, running round the house at speeded-up speed to the soundtrack of the Benny Hill theme.

In other news, a potentially disastrous piece of news - in my car park today I found some gentlemen who said that they were going to meet the housing officer with a view to clearing away the overgrown bit of the carpark. Which is, on the one hand, a good thing as it is very overgrown indeed and the housing association have never bothered to do a thing about it before so it's a bit out of control. But - big but - it will mean that I will be unable to harvest any blackberries so blackberry flapjacks will be off the menu this year at Greenbelt. Disaster!
