I Lost Mine
Too
 Don’t ask I
didn’t.
  Well up we jumped, another day at the
mill. Rain, rain and yet more rain with the odd clap of thunder meant Bears gel
coat had not ‘gone off’, so no sanding there
then, so he began to tidy the cockpit - my new found ruthlessness has finally
rubbed off, several trips to the bin in between downpours. The downside however,
meant a thousand trips to his potting shed PAST me every time........Well.....don’t say another word...... Lunchtime
came very quickly and by means of a break we played a game of backgammon. Hard
fought or what, four all and nip and tuck – I only just squeezed the victory to
get level once more. My three up lead had been eroded over the last couple of
days.
Whilst mentally preparing to finish
the bathroom screen, yes, Bear nipped out to get me four new screws, the elusive
dozen of yesterday are still nowhere to be found. I emptied, polished, sorted
and re-stowed the bookshelf in our bedroom. Squadging and hiding of extra-spare
toilet rolls in the back of our hanging cupboard led to a bit more ‘finding’ for
the charity shop bag, then I just had to get on and finish the screen. Done, I
went to find the skipper, far too quiet. There he was laying on the office bed,
torch in hand, notebook and pen, bottom in the air. Don’t ask I didn’t. That
really is the vaguest hint of a builders bottom. Is
that you trying to find your screws. Something muttered and a cheesy grin.
 When Bear had bimbled off for a
shower, I stood and admired the office. I haven’t
seen it like this in a very long time. Soon I hope to ask Bear to get the
bedding from the store, take it to the laundry and put it all on clean, mmm,
methinks when I get back from Australia, I’d bound to do it now and himself
would want to rummage..... I went to put Bears stew on, whilst waiting for it to
boil, I thought I would just have time to put a layer of insulating sponge in
the cupboard behind where I sit in the lounge and begin a sort out. Spot what I
had done in the next two pictures. I have clearly lost my screws too. Turns out
I had plenty of time to finish sorting the cupboard before said stew was
ready........... Oh dear, oh deary me. I did get another sneaky five four in,
even winning a round where I purposefully had six in his home, just to see if I
could pull it back. Huh.
  Oops.
ALL IN ALL A ROUNDABOUT SORT
OF DAY
FEELS LIKE IT’S COMING
TOGETHER
I’M NOT SO
