I've just been told off by a Polish Amazon delivery driver
I saw him as he banged on the front door at lunchtime and thinking he was just selling something I let the dogs barked their heads off as I listened to Meera Syal in the BBC radio. 4 podcast of A Small Town Murder in the kitchen.
The driver banged a few times at the front door then came to the lane kitchen window where after seeing me casually sipping my tea he gestured angrily that I come to the kitchen wall.
" You are very rude ignoring me !" he remonstrated " I have a package for you!"
And I apologised somewhat red faced
Good for him, I thought....I was being a bit of a knob hiding away
The package was a gift from Nu. It was a book she had been reading that she thought as would like , the story of the columnist Melanie Reid who had suffered a devastating spinal cord injury after falling from a horse in 2010. I shall start it this afternoon.
It's blustery today and cold . Already I've defrosted the freezer and spring cleaned the kitchen. ( guilt spurring me on after yesterday's pointless hangover) and walked the dogs twice. Mary and I met up with policewoman Jo and her three greyhound bitches. ( Three dogs but only eleven legs ) Mrs Trellis caught up with us with Blue in tow . I noted she had her more tight fitting bobble hat on against the gales. It made her eyes squint like Micky Rooney in Breakfast at Tiffany's
Trendy Carol ( in a very nice NorthFace jacket and ski pants ) waved as she went last but the rest of the village seemed deserted due to the bad weather.
Only dog walkers like us are silly enough to be out.
