Another day at the allotment hedge cutting. I trimmed my heart-shaped bush & Ahmed attended in a supervisory capacity (for 'supervisory' read: 'No, no, no .. you're doing it all wrong') This is a picture of him doing it 'all right'.
Then Dario arrived & the boys went into the shed for the daily round-up of what happened on 'Deal or no Deal' the night before. There's something endearing about 80 yr olds discussing the amount in the box & the significance of Noel's facial expressions.
Not endearing enough to sit through the whole conversation though - it lasts longer than the actual programme & usually ends up with them all agreeing that it's a fix and they don't know why they bother watching it. I agree with the last bit.
Mother phoned to tell me Uncle Wilf had died. I have no recollection of who Uncle Wilf is/was but apparently his daughter Janet lives in Oban & is a marine biologist. Auntie Joyce is bearing up but she's been a little unsteady on her feet lately. His other daughter Linda is a teacher in Glasgow & apparently used to teach my cousin Jane's husband Naresh. Fascinating. Another 15 minutes of my life I'll never get back.
RANDOM ITEM NO.3
A mobile phone cord-thingy with the words 'Sex God' emblazoned all the way down it. Can't think who I can give it to, no-one is worthy. EBay?
