No rain today!

Which was a surprise as continuous light rain had been forecast for most, if not all, of the day. But what do those ‘experts’ know eh? We’ve had a lovely day, at times very warm in the bright sunshine, with just the occasional cloudy spell. But no rain.

So today was a day for busying oneself with little jobs, not trivialities as such, but things one has been, let’s say, putting off doing for a while.

One such thing was my main trailer’s lights connection. Several months ago when I was still unwell, a French friend unfortunately pulled it by the cable, not the plug, to detach it from my car while helping me with work in my garden and pulled off all the connections.

When we reattached them all for some reason we just couldn’t get them in the right order even though we had the wiring diagram, and things like flashers didn’t work when they should have. I’ve been meaning to get around to sorting the problem out for quite a while so today was the ideal day and it was satisfying to get things working properly again after only a few minutes work.

Now I can take my mower to Malbec if necessary safe in the knowledge that all my trailer lights will be working properly.

And the other thing I needed to do was fit the handles on my two recently acquired little oak tables. They arrived from China several days ago and I just needed to motivate myself to fit them, so today I did. And it was well worth the effort.

As I type this we’re being treated to a glorious evening with a clear sky and wonderful sunshine. The weather forecast for tomorrow is for more rain and we’re all keeping our fingers crossed that it will be equally as good (or bad) as their forecast for today. Anyway, here’s hoping 😉
