Throw your facemasks in the air like you just don’t care! Woo hoo!
That’s right, from Monday onwards you’ll be able to legally cough all over fellow shoppers without fear of being swooped upon by the Covid police. Facemasks like pants will become a thing of the past. You mean I still need to wear pants? Bother!
Unlike Matt Hancock who is leisurely trawling through the list of available jobs on Indeed.com, I have been going hell for a leather like a Taz with a paintbrush; bish, bash and boshing corridor walls and garden fences before summer is over.
Both
bedrooms are finally fully painted and the upstairs corridor is now in the
queue for a spot of carpentry and banister treatment. More on that to follow.

The silver copse colour of the Cuprinol paint is much darker than the Ronseal slate colour, an almost dark bluey-grey shade. Although it’s not going to solve the poor half rotten condition of some of the fence panels, at least it’ll make them more weather proof and look better until it’s time to replace them.
Fence as good as new
Plans
are afoot to buy a corner shed for the back garden and we’ve already begun
clearing out the borders to make way for a shaped concrete base on which it
will sit. Due to the shape of the
structure, we’re calling on the professionals to build us a proper sized and
level 4 inch base. Lead time for sheds
is around 24 weeks or more so even if we get the base built this year, it’s
unlikely we’ll see the new shed until spring of 2022.
Preparing the site for a corner shed
And
so it continues. We may not be having a
holiday for some time to come but at least we’ll have a nice house to live in.
