Things I Learned While On Holiday (Part 1)
Back to work this week after Holiday. We didn't go away, just out and about at home.
Here's some things I learned this week.
1). Think carefully about water for your moat when deciding the positioning of your sand castle - too close to the sea means it'll be washed away, too far away and you will never be able to fill your moat before it drains. (Camber Sands)
2). Although annoying, nosey neighbours sometimes do know what they're talking about. (advice on chopping down trees)
3). Stinging nettles have no place in your garden especially not overflowing onto the path, how ever many butterflies they may attract. (Helping my Aunt move)
4). When moving large items of furniture e.g. fridge/freezer, make sure you let your "moving buddy" know if he is about to step backwards downstairs while carrying the large item, otherwise he may be crushed or if lucky, just suffer minor heart-failure. (sorry Dave)
5). Whilst attempting to follow a car from the Church to the Wedding Reception, try to make sure that the car you are following was actually at the Church and is actually going to the reception and not a garden centre. It's also wise to have a backup plan of knowing the address of the reception. (Maidstone and Chatham)
6). Accountants are always scary, even if you've nothing to hide.
7). Nasty splinters will generally come out of their own accord when they are ready how ever much painful digging around you attempt. (that actually goes for most other stuff in life too).
