Fun and wife swapping

April 18th, 2010

I had a very busy day yesterday.

It was a beautiful day, so I decided it was time to do some long overdue jobs around the estate. There were hedges to be trimmed, ground to be dug and trees to be cut back.  I set Herself to the digging while I trimmed some shrubs.  I had to leave the tree pruning as I didn’t have a suitable saw.  I even cut the grass.

Of course, having cut the grass, I had to have a bit of a smoke.  Then the neighbours got wind of it, as it were, and they wanted a sample of the grass too.  We ended up having a bit of a neighbourly barbecue.

It’s funny how these things get out of hand.

Somebody suggested a spot of wife swapping.  I was all on for it, but for some reason Herself wasn’t too keen.  I persuaded her that it was all in the best interests of the community spirit, so we went for it.

I’m very glad we did.

I swapped her for the loan of a chain saw.
