Smokin'

Well, not quite smokin'...as it all appeared to burn well with very little smoke at all.  A rare occurrence here, but Mr A reckoned it was the best way to get rid of the old, broken wooden shed.  I mean, it wouldn't fit into the car to go to the tip, it wouldn't fit into the bin to be collected at the roadside...so a bonfire it had to be!  I think he quite enjoyed it - rather like men and barbeques, eh? 

Anyway, I think I can safely say that I am officially "sad" as I'm terribly excited about the arrival of my new "pinny" - a linen blend article from H&M Home that I spotted online and just knew it had my name on it.  And yes, I did actually do a happy twirl in it when I put it on...and I'm now loathe to take it off! 

Thought for the day:

"The moments of happiness we enjoy take us by surpise.  It is not that we seize them, but that they seize us."  (Ashley Montagu)
