The Flitting.

                                 

Good Afternoon, we have been having a really busy day today.  Do you remember me telling you I had put my dinning room table upstairs to put the computer on when we moved it back up there a while ago, and said at the time we did not need it well, the family are coming to dinner tomorrow and guess what I am going to need the table down the stairs again. I can tell you I am not a popular person at the moment as it was my idea to take the table upstairs in the first place. How could I have been so silly.  What made it such a job is it is a round table with two folding leaves when we took it upstairs in October when we arrived at the study door it would not go through so undeterred I suggest we take the leaf off. It was attach with a piano hinge and was held by 15 screws so Stuart had a job getting it off.  So today after we had got it downstairs again the leaf had to be put back on, so you can see why I'm not very popular today.  The table was My Mum and Dads and is solid wood and is very heavy into the bargain I do get some strange ideas at times but that's just me and it has given me something to tell you about today when there is not a lot happening here. I have put the steak for the steak pie for tomorrow into my slow cooker which I had mislaid but found again thank goodness as nothing makes stewing steak like it so that will be all ready for tomorrow. I have started my Bird watching Diary Journal and I will leave the link at the end of this entry so if you wand to pay a visit you are most welcome. Lots of Love ,

Hi Joan, hope you managed to get the table down without too much fuss...but as you needed it down other than taking the meal upstairs it had to be done....omg it sounds like you had a job getting it up there in the first place...It is a good job Stu is so patient....Nothing as good as stewing steak done in the slow cooker - hope you enjoy your meal tomorrow....Have a lovely evening....Ally x
