I\u2019m clearly wrong unless my mistress was intending to paint her hands, arm, leg, trousers and foot and was only using the bench as an incidental prop. I thought about going up to her and pointing to her elbow and saying you\u2019ve missed a bit but I thought better of it.<\/p>\n<p>So the moles are still going strong and I am worried they are going to take over whilst I am away. It was odd really the \u2018Mole Man\u2019 came and took away a couple of the traps. I can only assume he has another mole problem somewhere else and needs them there but it certainly isn\u2019t because we don\u2019t need them.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s my turn to cook tonight. I thought I would grill some of the meat out of the freezer but there seems to be a small problem. When it was frozen there were eight pieces of meat in the container and now there just seems to be one frozen lump. I tried bashing it against the work surface to see if I could break off the number of pieces we needed. I tried to separate it using a knife. I thought about getting a hammer out of the garage but my master said he drew the line at his tools being used for something like that, he didn\u2019t want them damaged. I offered to eat all the spare ones but my mistress wasn\u2019t so keen on that idea so I guess I will have to find something else to cook and we will only be able to have those when we really want to eat them for several consecutive days.<\/p>\n<p>When we last went to the airport I noticed that instead of saying \u2018departures\u2019 and \u2018arrivals\u2019 on the signs for the \u2018pick up\u2019 and \u2018set down\u2019 parking (or \u2018kiss and fly\u2019 as it prefers to be known in Nice) they have pictures of aeroplanes either going up or coming down. I presume they must think this makes it obvious in any language but as my mistress pointed out if you are departing you want an aeroplane that has just landed. I am not sure how she gets to the aeroplane \u2018going up\u2019 for the arrivals though!<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>Correct me if I am wrong but I thought when you paint something the idea is to get the paint on the thing being painted. <a class=\"mh-excerpt-more\" href=\"https:\/\/alfiesdiary.uk\/index.php\/2006\/09\/16\/saturday-16th-september-2006\/\" title=\"Saturday 16th September 2006\">[&#8230;]<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":5022,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-596","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/alfiesdiary.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/596","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/alfiesdiary.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/alfiesdiary.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/alfiesdiary.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/alfiesdiary.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=596"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/alfiesdiary.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/596\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/alfiesdiary.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/alfiesdiary.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=596"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/alfiesdiary.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=596"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/alfiesdiary.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=596"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
