It’s all overflowing – water, leaves, paper

Very little horizontal movement this week for me, though on Tuesday Dot went to Hull and back in a day, against all sensible advice (mine and others). To be fair, it wasn’t her decision, because Barbara was driving, and the Philosophy session went well.

Dot has been very busy this week, and has now been asked to write an article for The Magazine. It’s all go for her.

I’ve spent quite a lot of time getting rid of paper from my filing cabinet, and am not much more than halfway through the big one. On the plus side, I have disposed of large amounts of paper, some of it shredded, and have discovered some interest historical items (my history, that is). I have also emptied a box of miscellaneous items that has been cluttering up the study and redistributed some of it. Most of this is done sitting down, but it’s still very tiring.

Both bins are practically full, and they won’t be emptied for over a week. The brown one is nearly full of leaves, since it’s been quite windy. One binful of leaves went on Monday.

The piano tuner came yesterday, and earlier in the week I took Dot up to Dipples to buy her birthday present – a rather nice watch. She seems quite pleased.

I have just written an e-mail to the vicar making it clear than I am not acting for the church in the matter of Anglian Water, who have now decided the leak is not fixed as stated earlier but is probably on church property, and therefore it’s up to the church to find it and fix it. It’s costing huge amounts of money (we’re paying over four time the amount we were paying last year at this time) and needs to be sorted. I have suggested the vicar and churchwarden are responsible. I may be excommunicated, but at least I won’t be losing sleep over it 🙂 I hope.
