The Time of the Screw.

Sorry that I haven’t been in touch for a few days, I have a couple of friends the Ayetease brothers, now Arthur is pretty much a constant companion, especially in winter, but his brother Cynus is fortunately a rarer visitor but has made his presence felt with a force this week, even preventing my attendance at work, luckily he is taking his leave now and hopefully will not return for a long while!

Today, I wanna tell you a story, who remembers Max Bygraves?

Anyway, as you know there is a new arrival imminent, so I was assisting proceedings by helping to prepare the Moses Basket. Now the hood of said basket is attached with plastic screws one of which snapped as the hood was being reattached. Oh bother! I said, or something very similar, and the hunt was on for a replacement.

Now some people say I am a hoarder, some people say if you haven’t used something for a couple of years you never will and that I should throw things away!

I, however, take the view that you never know when something will come in useful, so off to the garage I went in search of the spare plastic screw that I remembered keeping from my son’s highchair about 25 years ago.

It fitted perfectly and was still as good as new!!!!!

You know nothing Jon Snow.
