Just been touching up my car (with paint - weirdos). I'm not sure of its success yet. I think up close it's gonna look pretty crappy but at least from a distance people can't tell I'm a useless girl who's managed to scratch her car numerous times along the same damn brick wall. The first time a result of my complete loss of temper over my useless parking skills. Matters weren't helped by the three work men chopping down a tree who took it upon themselves to make generously sexist comments about women driving while I painted. I also was chatted at for five minutes by an elderly gentleman who by the end of his conversation seemed to think I'd agreed to touch up his car (with paint - weirdos).
Today is my day off - I am now enforced part time - so I'm trying to make good use of the time, since no doubt I will soon be broke as a result of my vastly reduced salary. Fun. But tomorrow I get to meet up with La Bron for theatre outings, so should be fun.
Oh yeah - the tree. They're chopping down the tree that's in front of our flat. Nests and all. Now I know pigeons are generally considered rats with wings, but even I think it's a little harsh to kick them from their nest when they're just babies. Apparently the tree is a nuisance. Firstly because it houses too many birds (how dare it!) which are noisy and dirty, and apparently also affects the drains around the building. The real reason is because "Pat" or whoever, can't see properly out of her window. Personally I would much rather look out of my window at lovely green leaves and buds that the smelly main road filled with congested cars - but hey, each to their own. The bloody tree was there first anyway. And as for the birds, I'm sure we wouldn't mind our homes being destroyed if our neighbours disliked our presence. I realise I am actually quite cross. It's a beautiful tree, and yes we do get woken up in the morning by the pigeons, but so what? At least that way we can vaguely pretend we're living in the country and not in some built up, stinkpot city.
