I picked up this meagre brochure in the library the other day, just out of curiosity to see what was on offer that was 'different' this year. Classes are so expensive and often held in the evening which is not for me. Bucks CC used to offer discounts to pensioners and guess what - they stopped that scheme as I retired...
These two items were shown in the Gardening and Floristry section, tactfully put together, one above the other....
but this would be nice to have, someone working away in the garden all year. Gillian stops coming when the weather gets too cold, windy and dark, too, and I don't want to go out then, in any case. We always run out of time at the end of our season and things get left. She also has a job where she can be called in at the drop of a hat and it does rain from time to time, like this week...
Would you fancy living next door to someone going to this class? I don't think I would, having lived next door to a teenager who had a set of drums in his bedroom in the terraced house next to where I lived in Prestwood. That was the cause of me moving home...
Now this would be ideal, except it costs £400 for 16 weeks! And each lesson is from 10 am until 3.30pm. I wouldn't be able to keep my concentration going that long! And it's during the winter.I'll just have to keep trying to understand the manual which is on disk, of course, so practical for taking out with you.
Grumble, grumble, grumble.
