Thanks Postie

Just a quick post to show you a card I made for our postman. Tony is so helpful in all sorts of ways. If I have letters to post he will always take them for me to save me a five mile round trip just to post a letter.   He always keep an eye on our property when we are away. Whenever his van pulls up one of us will go out and collect the mail from him to save him getting out of the van. However, since lock down we still go out but wait under the carport until he deposits the mail in the box on the wall and when he moves back onto the drive we then go out and have a chat, obviously keeping the two metre distance.  If there is anything to go I put it on the patio table and when I go back inside he then picks it up and is on his way.  It's actually nice to have somebody to talk to since we are very isolated so don't actually see anybody. Having said that it does mean we are n a very safe environment. I just made this to show him he is appreciated.

I typed an appropriate insert thanking him and his colleagues for continuing to work and "keeping us posted".  Yet another key worker who is at risk.  I am so glad I am able to stay at home.

I decided to have a go at my craft room yesterday.  My goodness, I had no idea how much card stock I have!!!!!!! At least now it is all tidily in one place and I can now see what I have.  I just need to label the shelves now.  I don't think I will. need to buy card for years - but I'm sure I will. I think it will take me right through lock down and beyond to get into some form of decent order.  There will be lots to be disposed of too.  Amazing how much junk you keep .... just in case! HA!

Anyway, I do hope you are all keeping well and staying safe.
