I opened my underwear drawer this morning and there were only two pairs of underpants remaining. Normally this drawer is crammed with them, so I am taking this as an ominous portent. Clearly I will not be needing pants* after tomorrow, hence the title of today's Journal entry.
This morning started with a trip in to Alcester to drop off a jar of honey and a pack of home cured bacon for Nelson at the bakery. I received a freshly baked sausage roll in exchange and walked away thinking that he had got the better part of that deal.
On the way home I filled up a can of petrol at the local petrol station, as this was needed to fuel the long-reach hedge cutter.
Back at home, I mixed up a litre of 40:1 two stroke mix fuel and refilled the hedge cutter. The rest of the day was spent up in the orchard, where I finally finished the last length of hedge.
There may be a couple of hard-to-reach twigs that still need lopping, but we can now see out in all directions.
As I have now finished this monumental task I wonder if I am now surplus to requirements ... hence the empty underwear drawer.
