I suspect they did that because the barcode wasn't working.

Happened in my local Tesco with a shelf of ducks a member of staff was putting stickers on. So I spot the stickers and mosey on over only, to note the 1p reduction. So of course, curiosity gets the better of me, hence the above.

Sorting out the girls' Zooplus order - biscuits, litter and some xmas pressies for them and for my neighbour's cat.

Spent the morning sawing more logs off that mahoosive cherry tree. Plus I felled another dead oak and cut that up too, likewise several large (dead) branches from another nearby cherry tree.

I love my "office" at this time of year. I don't mind the cold, but give me a still day, a little bit of sun and all the fantastic autumn colours and I'm just so happy doing what I do.

Had a lovely lunch of a bagel with lox and a schmear accompanied by two and a banana. Poppy has decided she quite likes my lox.

Carted all the cut logs to their relevant destinations this afternoon, with the green wood all stacked nice and neat.

Only downside, my work gloves are now fubared. The palm, thumb and index finger on the right glove have worn through - weird, cos I'm left handed. The challenge is finding another pair in my size.

How small, ARCO do/did gloves for kids hands.

I like leather rigger gloves - bought the ones I have in the small garden centre in Ely. Will be dropping in tomorrow to see if I can get another pair. They're "Town & Country" branded.

I hope you treated yourself to something nice with the money you saved.

You will be relieved to know that I have now visited an art shop and resolved the Burnt Sienna deficit.

Oh, and I went to an interview...

 

[Andy in Germany]

Just got a call from a potential employer, completely out of the blue: possible interview next week, and I may be working in a bike shop.

Now you know as much as I do, so we shall have to see what we shall see.

And in an interview-specific update, I'm really not much the wiser...

Acrylic, I'd imagine?

It's funny, I use a lot of burnt sienna when painting with acrylics, but hardly ever when painting in watercolour.

Lovely supper tonight.

Alphabet soup, then leek wrapped in ham and done in a cheese, ale and mustard sauce, mashed potatoes and green beans.

 

[Reynard]

Ah, time.

 

[LeetleGreyCells]

Fingers crossed for you! (As long as it's the job and company you want!)
