Like my hair, the grass in the garden has been growing increasingly long. Due to self-isolating, it would be impossible to safely have my haircut at the moment.
My dad was able to drop by to mow the lawn – all while abiding to the two meter social distancing rule. In fact, he remained outdoors for his entire visit, while Claire and I stayed in the house, eating sweets and cooing over Roman.
As you can see from the photo, the grass had become very long!
The lawn has now been cut. It should remain short until tomorrow, when the three-day weekend promises a mix of hot sun and rain. Perfect conditions for grass to thrive – I may as well pour a gallon of Miracle Grow over it!
Frustratingly, while our lawn is neat and tidy (for now), my hair is becoming long and messy. I can’t ask my hairdresser to drop by, and Claire has (sensibly) refused to go anywhere near my mop.

Claire managed to get it into our back garden before the bin burglar could steal another from us!
So, I believe that is "thank you" to...

In case anyone has been worried about my broken stairlift and the prospect of me being stranded upstairs forever, fear not, for it has been fixed!
We turned it off an on again.
See... the most effective approach to fixing anything technical, whether it be a computer, stairlift or television.
I'm sure the fix is not even below...
- Be Careful What You Wish For
We had a power cut this afternoon. Apparently many properties near to ours were also affected.
Thankfully the "blackout" lasted for just a few seconds. That brief period was long enough to knock out all my tech, which, once power had returned, spent ages whirring and beeping as it all came back to life.
The power cut...
- Well That Was Long Overdue…
I had my haircut yesterday, for the first time since February.
Let's just say my mop was getting very long and I was getting very annoyed with it.
You also know it's bad when your wife calls you Shaggy. I assume she didn't mean the cool dude behind classic tunes like It Wasn't Me and In the Summertime. She...
