Ow, that Jack Monroe piece. I'm currently hiding because I hid when the landlord's gardener knocked on the door and now she's trimming the hedge and I can't confess I'm in. And earlier, I had a definite Buridan's Ass moment about whether I was going to pick up the Tesco envelope that had just come through the door because it would involve being able to see what the thing underneath it was. (It was a bright yellow leaflet telling me that if I paid for my funeral now I could choose what music they played at it.)

This is all a thing.

OTOH because I'm trapped in a room with boxes I have unpacked a box which has been at the top of my to-do list for about six weeks, and finally found the ratchet straps I'm going to use to make the futon bearable, next time I can go in that room.

I hope it gets better.

Thank you 8-) It has got better already; I don't think this gardener is malicious, in the way the people-before-last were malicious. I'm hiding because I don't want to have a conversation, rather than because I think she's a threat.

But really. What I want is a house where random people I have to be polite to don't turn up without warning.
