The mice have eaten all the wiring in the kitchen behind the units. Bit annoying really and very selfish of them seeing as they had taken a liking to Imperial Leather soap in the bathroom cupboard and eaten a bar of that already. Think it was the trap that did it, they realised I was on the case and found a way behind the walls or something (I dont do house geography) and decided to sabotage the wiring in the kitchen as a form of revenge. I was hoping they would at least have electrocuted themselves, but the electrician tells me this is a common problem in very old houses and he has never yet seen one where they eat the live red wire. I have asked him if we could experiment and chalk ink the red wire black to see if they would eat it before he comes next week to charge me the cost of a new house to replace about ten miles of wiring, but he thought I was joking.
Mmmm, Jools of Wisdom. Sounds very grand and grown up doesn't it? It's all Anita's fault of course. That's Anita Mundt, celebrity scrapbooker, lovely lady, celebrity scrapbooker, brilliant photographer (evidence at top of this blog - I dont look anything like that in real life),celebrity scrapbooker and oh, did I mention she is a celebrity scrapbooker??? You can tell that I dont allow things like being aquainted with celebs to go to my head - oh goodness me no. I mean a couple of weeks ago I was chatting to Tracy from the Artz Girls, Michele Charles and Tim Holtz to name just a few, but as I said to Emily - thats Emily Adams not Falconbridge,(saw her last year) oh, lost me thread now, forgot what I was going to tell you.
So, Anita thinks that it would be a good idea for me to have a blog. There are a few pretty major drawbacks to this though - not least of which is that I dont do techy. So she decided to set it all up for me and probably,when I press whichever button I find to press in a minute, the last half an hour of typing will disappear into cyber space never to be seen again.
Which is why on this, my very first entry, there are no points to ponder - I mean, after all, if you are never going to read it there doesnt seem any point in typing it does there?
