You might call me an opportunist, but I have formed my own union, balloted the membership and won a unanimous mandate for a day of action on my pension. My pension is of course the house, so that's where today's action is centred, and will be coupled with a rally against hedge funds. I will be forming a picket line at the plot boundary consisting of rank and file members of the hornbeam family. No-one will be allowed through except the plumber and electrician, who are performing essential services, although they seem to have been on strike for weeks. At the same time, I am saving money for the hard-pressed council while starting my transition to part-time working, although the council might see it as my transition to unemployment.

Nice one DSB glad to see you are using your time well. Now i bet you are dying for someone to ask - what is the design for your gate called? House is looking good now.
ReplyDeleteTough question, but if pushed I'd say it'll be a rough-hewn cleft oak pentalateral A-frame long wheelbase garden gate, ebay exclusive version, leant against a fencepost for photographic effect.
