I've just got back from clearing my in laws' house out ready for sale (they have both moved into residential care). A week of rats, mice, 60 years of hoarded junk and a smell that would turn Dr. Maura Isles' stomach (dead rat in the airing cupboard). It has been hell. Glad to be back.
Thanks for your concern everybody. I'm always wary of publicising that I will be away at a specific time.
Glad to have you back. I told myself not to worry and just held you in my heart.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Paul.
ReplyDeleteAs long as you are OK ... that's what matters! Missed you!
ReplyDeleteGlad to know you're OK. Cleaning out someone's house is a miserable job.

Welcome back MP
ReplyDeleteThe Mad Priest he went off for a while
To help clean out his old in-law's pile
There were rats in the sink
And the whole place did stink
But the sex-toys showed the old folks had style.
Well, Crazy @rse, your rather apocalyptic posts ("This Is It!") of the past few weeks were the context of the concern.
ReplyDeleteNo matter---glad you're back! :-)
I'm with you on the not-publishing absence, MP. I thought it was just a girl thing. But it makes sense to me.
ReplyDeleteIt is a girl thing, Lois, and she is called Mrs MP.
ReplyDeleteDefinitely one of your best, Boaz. Unfortunately, as it would at least have given us a giggle, there were as many sex toys as there were hidden stashes of cash.
ReplyDeleteDid you explore the back garden for possible buried cash? My husband's father did that and then forgot where he had put it.
ReplyDeleteGlad you survived the clean out.
Oh, Boaz!!!
ReplyDelete:-)
"It is a girl thing..." Well, that's all right then. Welcome back, MP and MadGang.
