village life

[ramtops]

it's nice living in a village, and today we had two reminders of why ...

went up to the Post Office with a couple of parcels to post. I'd managed to mistype the postcode on the label for major_clanger's Big Box of Goodies, and when they checked it, I had the road wrong as well [sigh] - clearly, yet another badger moment.

never mind - the guy in the post office just hung on to it, and said to phone him when I found out the right address.

then we popped along to the village off-licence to put in an order for some wine. We normally go in and tell them what we want, then collect it the next day. But David from the Little Tipple gave perlmonger, the wine, and some eggs and carrots a lift home, while I popped to the chippy for our lunch. I know, I know, but the *smell* ...

in other news, we had to put some stuff in the loft this afternoon, and we got the cashmas decorations out. I'm not going to put them up yet, *obviously*. But there they are, lurking in the server room in a twinkly manner.
