Spare rooms, Apple Macs, and verrucas

Don’t worry, it hasn’t taken me 11 days to sort out those boxes in my spare room. It has just taken me 11 days to regain the will to live. And I have also just switched over from a PC to an Apple Mac (read my switching diary for the proof). And I have a verruca. Oh, wait on, wrong excuse book.

The box sorting was tedious and energy sapping, but it is all done and we now have a loft full of stuff we don’t really need but can’t really bring ourselves to throw away. Left in the wake of the boxes is a spare room that constantly taunts us to dump more stuff in it, but we actually have a room we can use again which is definitely a good thing. I also painted the loft hatch last week but there is still no sign of the new sofa. An angry wife is counting to ten before visiting John Lewis.
