We all have some things we can’t do well. One of them
for me is carpentry. Sawing a line that needs a straight edge
never goes well.
Maybe I need glasses. I read mostly without them
so that can’t be it. Put it down to lack of concentration?
We have a bedroom with a carpet in it. It’s been there
almost since the house was built. Or close to it.
My better half put her foot down. A new carpet
Or… she didn’t say what.
We know a couple of carpenters who have done
good work for us in the past. They came over, looked
at the old carpet, frowned; whispered to each other
and nodded.
Writer’s comment: It took them a full day, leaving
the two of us grinning at each other. Why didn’t we
have it done well before now?
That’s a good question.
