There’s a sign on the wall…

I put the sign up today having finished painting the fence.

However I then had to prep and prime all the metal hinges on the gates and then paint both gates.  There were acres and acres of them – it was a far more onerous task than I had envisaged (amazing how often that is the case).

Tomorrow I have to paint the hinges in gold and do the back of the gate.  I have decided on balance against doing the full fence as I am not sure how it can be done with all the bushes growing up against it.  One for another year I think.

I notice from the photo that I have broken a key injunction never to put a picture of R on the Internet.  If you look at the extreme left of the photo you will see him on the path trying to entice Saphy away from the wet paint.  Perish the thought, given sufficiently powerful software you might be able to get the registration plate of our car – and then you would know where we live.
