It was lovely today

HOT and sunny
I didnt check the thermometers > I was too busy!!
I finished the cladding of the stud beside the side door
and gave it all a first coat of Red Cedar wood preservative
Mary and I were out shopping at the Salford Shopping Precinct yesterday
and whilst shopping in Wilkinsons for a bolt for the side-door
I notice a wonderful 'looking' companion suite
~ two chairs, separated by a small glass table with glass shelf below
and a hole, to accomodate a parasol stand, in the middle
A little 'bushed' from the walking... I sat in one of the seats
whilst Mary, went to the till to purchase a few items she needed
I saw Mary making her way to the door [and, looking, for me]
so I went over to join her and drew her attention to this suite
She 'liked' it and so I bought it... there and then
a young man [sales staff]
was instructed to carry it for us to the taxi rank
some 150 yards... and due to the bulky nature of the packaging
was, by no means any kind of mean-feat
So Mary foist a £5 'tip' on him..despite his repeated-refusal
LOL... she gave him NO-CHOICE [rofl]
I have been too busy today to erect it [flat-packed]
but pics here when done
