Aerodrome

A typically grey Good Friday.  At least is has not rained here.

Generally pottering about today.   We discovered last night that our patio doors were jammed locked but a handy chap we know popped round at lunchtime and  unjammed the door, although it requires a whole new lock mechanism.   A relief to be able to use that door as the only other possible ways to get into our back garden  involve.. 
1. climbing through a window, 
2. shrinking yourself to the size of stick person and shuffling sideways between two brick walls
3. A trek up the road, along a public footpath, battle through  foliage (like the jungles of Borneo) at the back of the gardens and climb over the fence.   

I had a game of hide and seek with a green woodpecker on my trek up the hill.   The woodpecker won otherwise he would be starring in my blip for today.   Now I know where he hangs out I can stalk him on another day.
