The best moment this morning - returning the carpet cleaner to the hire company this morning, I picked up their price list and finally realised why my brother had thought it would be far cheaper than it actually was - indeed, far cheaper than anybody had thought it would be. He'd been reading the price for the nozzle you stick on the end of the pipe to do upholstry!
Great fun was also had this morning, taking the bags of rubbish accumulated thus far to the tip. This is part of the process of me sorting out my garage. It's a funny thing, but I haven't been able to do anything like this for years while I've been caring for Dad and it was quite therapeutic going through all the stuff I'd sort of thrown out of the way in there and sorting the wheat from the chaff. And I found quite a lot of wheat, as well as a whole big carload of chaff... including the light which I thought I'd only thought about buying for the fish tank and obviously had actually bought after all... and put in the garage for some totally inexplicable reason. I also found some rather interesting, but at the time not very endearing, minibeasts of various shapes, forms and numbers of legs. I am therefore glad we took the trip to the tip in my brother's car rather than mine!
