Busy(-ish)

It's been a good day. The weather has been fabulous and we have got a fair bit done.

The Silver Vixen wanted to go across to Haskin's for some stuff for the garden. The Gorse Fox had received notification that the new wallpaper was being delivered, so stayed put. Sure enough it arrived well within the slot estimated by DPD but while the Gorse Fox was dealing with that, an email came in to say the TV we had been looking at was back in stock.

The Gorse Fox headed in to Chichester and sought the assistant who had been so helpful last time. The Gorse Fox explained he had received notification the TV was in, and wanted to buy it. The young assistant was genuinely excited. This, after all, was a big ticket item. The transaction was partly done. The TV will be delivered next week, but the wall mount was out of stock. As it happens, that is not a problem as we won't mount it on the wall until the paper has been put up.

The Gorse Fox headed on to Bunnings. He needed some shelving for the new Sky-Q mini box in the family room. He wanted to see what was available, or failing a suitable solution, buy the wood to make something. As it happened they had some nice floating shelves. Unlike previous junk, these had a tight push-fit. The Gorse Fox splashed out £12 and bought two shelves. It didn't take too long to get them fixed and they are as solid as a rock. All of the boxes, cables, switches and so forth were re-sited and the job was done.
