What did you do today Dad?

Started well… got ‘out there’ and mowed the front lawns. Did a reasonable job too. Then did lots of watering. Came in for a drink… damn hot out there… and sent an email or two. Then read one.

Seems I promised to go collect a sign for the Guide Group… and the address had just arrived. Off I go for a quick hours trip… but when I got back it was nearly midday and too hot to work in the garden. So I decided to work in the garage instead :)

I originally intended clearing off the verandah so we’d not trip over stuff on the way into the house… and would have somewhere to site when the oldies arrive. When I opened the doors there was hardly a square inch of floor visible so it wasn’t a five minute job.

As it happens… within five minutes Of changed my modus operandi and began working with one hand whilst holding a can of cockroach spray in the other… geez there were a lot of the! Young ones, old ones, large small… all sorts. The spray I was using is a ‘barrier spray’ so the residual lasts for 6 months. With luck that’ll be the last of them for a while.

Well… might be. I’ve only ‘done’ one side… and whilst we can see the floor again… we can;t see enough of it to be able to park one of the cars in there… but I’m working on it!!


Stumble it!
