Having a smashing time

There we were enjoying a convivial brunch before waving youngest off home to Somerset when there was an almighty crash and the sound of breaking glass.
It sounded like it had come from the kitchen but no it was the mirror in the house bathroom. The picture wire had given up the ghost and it hit the tap and slid off onto the limestone floor.
I'm all for a bit of excitement but I'm very glad no one was in there.
In other news we have done lots of washing. Hacked back some of the climbers in the back garden. Sorted through some DVDs and put a good number on e bay. And managed to wade through some episodes of Mad Men. That has all been enjoyable. Especially the washing. It's so nice to have the machine working again.
