And now my back hurts!

Off work today and most likely tomorrow owing to me doing my back in as I attempted to sort out the very end of the garden. We are going to turn this into a play area, but are having a rather large fir tree chopped down next month, so I have to clear a lot of rubbish for that to happen. Still, we will not be short of wood for the fire this winter. I was going to put a motorbike picture up for a bit of variety, but George won out as more people are interested in him rather than motorbikes. Went to the BMW bike place in Hertford on Saturday to look at F800, their newish v-twin which I am being seduced by and even though I do not want to buy until next year, the guy was trying to draw me in with various deals and all that. I held firm.... Otherwise, on the home front we are still trying to squeeze our upstairs extension plans through via various measures, not least with the assitance of a retired architect who has dealt with the planning department for years and lived in the village for just as many years. But we could be waiting a long time for that, so we are looking to get the kitchen done instead. I have a quartet concert on Wednesday at a cancer hospice in North London and there are loads of other little things going on in our life, but things start to get boring if I go on about them. Back to doing nothing for me...
