Who needs a man?
If you want a job doing properly,
infact,
if you want a job doing at all,
do it yourself!
Hmmm,
what are you thinking after seeing that photo?
That I have gone all feminist and DIY on you?
Look, if I do DIY in pink ballet pumps,
and wearing lip-gloss,
that won't make me all
butch will it?
NO,
thats what I thought,
so
after being fed up with brushing and
rinsing the flags free from hen poop
for far too long.
Putting up with the girls begging for food when
we eat outside!
Plus, Pie the cheeky bunny
really needed his space to be a bit more secure,
a gate was the only answer.
So I dug out my un-used,
dusty drill.
Leant how to use a saw...
...and finally
Hung a gate!
Plus it works!
I only broke 5 drill bits,
lost 3 screws (??? mystery???)
cut myself several times,
and have a splinter!
Phew!
Clean flags and safe bunny.
I promise to stop now,
I shall go back to girlie me.
Love Claire. xxx
P.S. I debated whether or not to tell you about the
FOUR trips to Wickes
asking for a really long screw
for an erection!!!
But thought it may be
pushing it a bit for all my
lovely followers!!!
Plus the chap in Wickes now
thinks I am some mentalist stalker!
P.P.S. A girlie crafty type post next time,
I PROMISE!
