Takes The Mickey

It hasn’t all been consummate indolence - well 

not in that sense but there’s evidence of less a 

plan than those cautious reactions to anything 

that might come back and bite one’s posterior; 

so I’m not sitting on the fence fixing the toilet’s 

flush tank so it fills in much less than a hour, it 

does it quite quickly now - like the kitchen sink, 

laundry washing machine & hand washing tub 

Even the soak hoses where we grow herbs & 

sweet capsicums deliver more efficiently - it’s 

as if we’d found th’ grub in a switch that takes 

the mickey out of ya, but reality says cleaning 

filters probably deserves recognition too, and 

I’ll truly try and remember it for next year …
