S was all "we can't test it out until the weekend" but he's still on calls so

Now you can look for lots of things to burn.

I don't have any jeans anymore. The (nice, not big thick baggy affairs) sweatpants that I adopted when I wore them with cosy jumpers and snow boots seemed fine, but now not such a good look with sunshine and 25 degrees. They is no way to make them passable, so they may only be for in the house now. :sigh:

My kids have run off up the hill behind our house and vanished, I have tea and quiet. Bliss!

I can’t set fire to anything until tomorrow now because I forgot all about fuel.

I did remember to buy an Aldi garment steamer though for £18 and I’m very pleased with myself.

You’ve all reminded me I need to swing past the architectural timber place to buy off cuts of wood for our weekend away with friends. You get 45kg for $20!

Will you make s’mores, Emma?
