In fact, it wasn&#8217;t until 16:00 that I set foot into the drizzle.<\/p>\n<p>What I had been doing was much more exciting than that. I sat down and wrote out the web page for yesterday&#8217;s match between FC Pionsat St Hilaire and AS Cellule. <\/p>\n<p>With it being a highly controversial match with two extremely controversial incidents, both of which called for a fair amount of comment from Yours Truly, I needed to be pretty careful about what I wrote.<\/p>\n<p>Even more so as these days you can receive <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bbc.co.uk\/news\/uk-england-lancashire-19869710\">12 weeks in prison for telling a joke on Facebook<\/a> (I&#8217;m glad I no longer live in the UK) and I sometimes have a tendency to let my flow of enthusiasm overwhelm my discretion.<\/p>\n<p>Back in Ye Olde Days, I always used to let Liz see anything controversial as she had the ability to read things objectively rather than emotionally &#8211; something that surprisingly few people have the ability to do these days &#8211; but of course that is no longer possible. <\/p>\n<p>Luckily, Krys was on line and so after I finished it, she had a read and then we had something of a chat about it &#8211; hence the late start outside.<\/p>\n<p>With the rain showers holding up work outside, it gave me time to reflect and I made a decision about the hard-standing. <\/p>\n<p>As you know, I was planning to clean up the waste land where I had been working and dump onto there the stuff from the hard-standing, but I will need quite a few days of good weather to do the work justice. <\/p>\n<p>It looks like we&#8217;ve had that now &#8211; the forecast isn&#8217;t too good &#8211; and so I&#8217;ve made a decision to put a large tarpaulin onto the land where I had my first vegetable garden, just in front of the house, and move the stuff onto that.<\/p>\n<p>This is easier said than done too as I have tons of stuff to move and I forgot just how heavy some of it was. It&#8217;s going to take a while to sort out all of this.<\/p>\n<p>At the Anglo-French group tonight we were rather thin on the ground and I ended up having a good chat with C\u00e9cile &#8211; so much so that we stood outside the bar afterwards chatting for a good hour or so.<\/p>\n<p> It&#8217;s been a long time since I&#8217;ve had a decent gossip. I spend far too much time on my own, I reckon.<\/p>\n<div class='watch-action'><div class='watch-position align-left'><div class='action-like'><a class='lbg-style1 like-100 jlk' href='javascript:void(0)' data-task='like' data-post_id='100' data-nonce='735c0713c9' rel='nofollow'><img class='wti-pixel' src='https:\/\/lesguis.com\/wp\/wp-content\/plugins\/wti-like-post\/images\/pixel.gif' title='Like' \/><span class='lc-100 lc'>0<\/span><\/a><\/div><div class='action-unlike'><a class='unlbg-style1 unlike-100 jlk' href='javascript:void(0)' data-task='unlike' data-post_id='100' data-nonce='735c0713c9' rel='nofollow'><img class='wti-pixel' src='https:\/\/lesguis.com\/wp\/wp-content\/plugins\/wti-like-post\/images\/pixel.gif' title='Unlike' \/><span class='unlc-100 unlc'>-1<\/span><\/a><\/div> <\/div> <div class='status-100 status align-left'><\/div><\/div><div class='wti-clear'><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8230; start going outside to work today.
