John has been asked to remove a sink from a building in town that is being cleared. The owners finally managed to evict the tenants after seven years of not paying rent. How people don't pay rent for that long and get away with it amazes me.
John comes home and cheerfully announces that he was given two old lawn mowers and has them in the back of the car. The wheels on our lawn mower are a bit dodgy so his plan is to replace them with the wheels off one of these. I try to look as delighted as possible in response to this news, but already I am beginning to envisage the garage full of old lawn mower parts. This is the garage I have tried to clear of this sort of stuff.
The weather has changed and it is really cold. It must be snowing somewhere in South Africa. On Monday, Ellie actually jumped in the pool. Ellie is a bit nuts anyway, but it was lovely and warm outside. Today, i don't think even Ellie has plans to go swimming.
The government announces the fact that it is likely to introduce stricter lockdown measures. What a surprise. Schools are unlikely to reopen either. I am all for living in the moment, but sometimes this idea of a blank future is very unsettling.
