Could not get hold of Age Concern so rang the Trinity Hospice people in Walworth Road. They arrived with absolutely masses of flatpack boxes which they will take away when I fill them. The problem is, when I try to assemble the boxes there is nothing to keep them together, i.e. the bottom just doesn't fix so I shall have to purchase huge quantities of sellotape or something to fix them. However, while awaiting the delivery I managed to assemble a box of books and three jewel cases full of cheap silver and retro costume jewellery which I don't need any more. So I have made a start. Can't do much more without the sellotape.
Have found a way of kind of tucking them in. Sizzling chicken for lunch at Lye Torng with Bloody Mary. I have now packed two boxes - one with glass etc and one with other odds and ends. Saw my GP this morning and stocked up with masses of drugs - having read the possible side-effects, will put up with a spotty face and forego the Tetracycline I think. My packing seems to involve discovering things I didn't know I owned, sorting and throwing things away more than actually packing things up. Julian has gone to fetch me some milk from Tesco,which is kind, since I haven't managed to get that far today.
Another two boxes and a bag - proof above. Will carry on for the next couple of weeks or so.
