hired a van and went and got that today. getting it off was interesting, but a lot easier than getting it on, glad i didn't have to do that bit! but time we'd done that, taken the van back (oh, and we took a sofa to the tip as well!) had a late brunch and i went back down and still had to sort out everything i'd moved to get the haylage in - molly got fed and turned out again. it was about 1830 by then, knackered....
and about 10 minutes ago had to ring the police & fire brigade - some kids had set a fire right next to the church next to us, you could only see it from our upstairs! right in the corner where you can't see from the road.... happily it went out before the fire brigade arrived, possibly because i went out and started to get people to move their cars in case the hedge went, and they heard me and stopped feeding it....
and as for the police/fire brigade - find us? we're on all the satnavs/maps as church street, but they were wandering round like lost souls..... so just as well it went out.
anyway, that was a bit of excitement.
the bad news, a new neighbour along the street (moved in in July) has been riding once a week at a local "approved" riding school. came off Wednesday night, in hospital, broke her ankle two places, needed two operations to put pins in (2nd one today) so that's not clever at all. will give her time to come round from operation then go visiting.....

Sorry, I messed up the first post!!
Oh,dear, a mixed day after all. Getting the haylage is good. I always feel better when I have a full load of hay stacked up.
The fire, not good. I'm glad it was stopped before it got serious. Hope your intervention helped. It would have been sad if the church had burned.
And then your neighbor. Ouch! I do hope she heals quickly. Give her my best when you do visit.
