To the dump
Spent today doing chores which have been putting off for a very long time. All to a backdrop of rain, hail, sun, wind and other seasonal pleasures.
Driver's wing mirror on car has been vandalised and doesn't stay in place - except with judicious amount of Blu Tack. Even then have to adjust the mirror at every traffic light. Grrr, @£%^&* vandals. This after having driver's window broken at Christmas. I hope God vandalises the dark teatime of their souls. (Though I suspect that's happened already.)
First, off to ParcelForce in Greenwich - always a delight. They said they only had one parcel but on checking tonight find they have two. So, have to go back. Hurrah.
Then to B&Q where we were charged outrageous sums of money for eco-friendly lightbulbs. Ah, environmental friendliness - the pastime of the wealthy. Looked at expensive electronic equipment in Comet and then left. Went into Teletubby Sainsbury's and bought soul-soothing sustenance instead.
Next stop, home and then loaded car up with a shopload of deceased computer equipment. At the dump we were surrounded by the insidious hovering of weirdos waiting to make off limping and drooling with their spoils. This is why we don't go to the dump often.
Home via the scenic route - housing estates of Camberwell. At least it avoids the Walworth Road.
Then we got home to see the suspicious Paramedic Ambulance that has been parked opposite the flat for several weeks has moved - to our side of the road. Keep giving its occupants the evil eye but they seem impervious.
