Linda yes indeed laughter is the best medicine, it is also true that behind every cloud there is a silver lining, what seems like calamity at the time often turns out for the best. I read the posts and often smile to myself, been there done that, a mill stone round the neck at the moment a balloon rising you to some place over the rainbow later.
At times these pictures come to my brain such as the incarceration of the chocolate thief Verdun, I just saw the whole picture in a flash and wrote it as I saw it, some think we are way off subject others just think us crackers others smile they are the ones I wish to get to.
Hope you get your greenhouse up and running it is a boon, you can lose yourself for hours sowing and potting.
Verdun, in this media world you are Guilty until proven innocent, used to be T'other way round when I was a lad so many moons ago. Standing to attention in front of the captain explaining why it was impossible to have been doing 60mph along the Canal road in a 1936 Leyland Hippo. He said right let us go and try it. He got flat our on the long runway and registered 29mph. Charge dismissed, he could not know I had seen the only downhill bit of the road coming whipped to top speed knocked it out of gear and flew past two MP's in a Jeep at high speed, their faces were a picture.
I would also guess Verdun you did not know about that CCTV camera in the mirror fixed to the bedroom ceiling above the bed, it recorded you furtively creeping up on the said bar of chocolate with the picture of the milk jug with the big--- oer wrong setting sorry anyway purloining said bar and making off shiftily and later seen with chocolate smeared face.
By the time that Amazon of a Policewoman gets you to Pendennis Castle Dungeons you will have confessed all.
I am available as Counsel at a fee of course though I warn you the speeding charge was the only one I ever won.
While eating my Porridge this morning complete with hedge row compote I cast my thoughts to that dastardly Chocolate thief who was by then doing Porridge. As my old Sergeant used to say, the punishment is not for what you did it is for getting caught. Wise words I took to heart and forever covered my tracks from then on. Take a tip from an old hand Verdun, never admit to anything even if they catch you covered in chocolate, tell them you are a messy cocoa drinker.
