I do like it when....

You resign yourself to sitting inside all day, knowing that the delivery guy will either arrive in the 3 minutes it takes to dash out to get some bread or at the very end of the day,

BUT THEN, he arrives with my new lens (thanks again, @lostsoulal2 ) at 9.07, meaning I can now go out to get bread!


Not that we need any, but I am now torn between getting the painting done that I have to do today and waking up the daughter who is full of cold and recovering from a camping trip so I can try it out....

I am currently waiting for last weeks eBay sale goodies to arrive too - and know if I visit the bathroom / go into the garage / garden; that will be when the courier arrives as they just seem to have a sixth sense . I am sure [hopeful] in the not too distant future we should be able to track the delivery driver / postman to narrow down the time of delivery, so that we can plan our days more successfully.

They say variety is best, so a spot of painting followed by the ubiquitous testing of the new lens - maybe a selfie ?

Maybe I should try face painting - see if I can make myself look even more featureless than nature made me...

Good luck with your deliveries - hope they are as exciting as mine was !

Keep a spare loaf in the freezer

Maybe technology will take longer I received an email about 15 minutes ago, giving me details of a 4 hour slot when the delivery driver would be expected for one of my parcels (a rather unexciting parcel of window frame edge trimmings) and said I could click on a link to show his progress on a map, clever I thought.

Did so and it indicated he was about 30 miles away and then................... there was a knock at the door, with guess who; the same delivery driver, obviously they have successfully invented time travel .

Nah - the bloody driver's probably stuck a magnet near the tracking device's sensor...
