Stop! This Fence is not Ready Yet!
Well after worked mucked me and several others about and took one of our days off away from us , to ‘ staff up ‘ so there staff could have the day off.
Beggar’s belief.
I should have been off from 0700 hrs. on Friday but as I had already made plans for the delivery of the fence panels , they had to go up.
Normally off nights I try and work through it until the evening so I get a sensible sleep, no chance this weekend, finished work then building fence with Papa Zebra until after midday , eventually sleeping at 1430 expecting to get up to an alarm at 1630 , it was only by chance that Papa Zebra popped in and found that I had slept through the alarm , so I was off to work in under 30 minutes thankfully I had done everything I needed to before I slept some.
Hell of a night, falling asleep through every break.
Back the next day and work continued on the fence, until finished.
From This
To This , in one year.
Very satisfying indeed.
Looks a lot smarter.
But eventfully I slept that night, and today Papa Zebra and I changed some panels before Hx noticed.
After I’d had a visit from from chums Nick , Nicky , Lara & Liam and providing them with some produce from the garden ,I ventured out into uncharted territory a Berkshire Garden centre on a Sunday, arghhh.
Obscene.
All I wanted was to get in and out , garden centres now are like shopping malls, clothing cafes , restaurants , food lines all before you get to the actual garden stuff.
I survived and plodded on with the fencing, I wanted to see what funky colours they had for fences that would be different , but sadly they were lacking , I fancies yellow or something bright for Winter when all the plants have gone, nix nada zilch, so I have plumped for a rustic green.
6 panels done 4 to go [ and that’s only on one side , my viewing side , forget everyone having and enhanced view , I get first viewing ] the rest will be done tomorrow after we have been to the recycling dump , never visit a local authority recycling site at a weekend , all the purple rinse brigade are out in force.
They have the whole week to do stuff, they are retired, so why wait until the weekend ?
Anyway there are before and after shots but the post comes before.
Matron & Hx , you’ll get the shots when I get the tme to upload them.
TTFN
Off to put on the aftersun.
BTW.
Been listening and working in the garden listening to this talented chap. Andy McKee
