Change of hobby

Post by clive »

This far in to the 3rd lockdown and my hands are so bloody clean I thought I might take up brain surgery.

I was thinking the same, Clive. I normally go into my shed most days for one reason or another but having decided to pass some time at the weekend by refurbishing my wobbly bird table I opened the shed door and walked straight into a spider's web :roll: . How sad is that?
