Busy Busy days.

I have just received the very sad news that Mr Montague, from Peamore has died. He was 88 years old, and I had found him to be a very wise, travelled and knowledgeable gentleman. Funeral at Exminster Church - 20th March 2014 -  at 3.00pm.

The dry weather continues! (Carol said it would.)  Hence, I have been busy in the garden, and generally doing several jobs.

 With help from Tom, we took a trailer load of scrap metal to Sims Scrap Yard at Marsh Barton. Quite a procedure now. Every body has to register when disposing of any scrap. One has to produce either a driving licence with a photo, or your passport and a utility bill not more than 3 months old.
This done, we had to don a hard hat, and yellow jacket selected from a bin. Drive  on to the weighbridge, off load on to a pile of other scrap metal in the yard, weighbridge again, produce a debit card, as this is the preferred way for payment. Then home £78.94 richer -  and tidier!

The Farrier came today

The leaves on the weeping willow are showing. Another sign that Spring is not far away. A lovely blue sky - and warmer weather to come!

Charlie with a Spring in his step!

 

 

Apparently, one in five people in the world are Chinese. And there a five people in our family, so I must be one of them! It's either my Mum or Dad. Or my older Brother, Colin. Or my younger Brother, Ho-Chan-Chu. But I think it's Colin!
