Unexplainable things

Why are some days sunny, the wood is perfect, the machinery never misses a beat and life is good sitting on a log in the woods taking it all in., while eating the lovely packed lunch your wonderful wife has made for you.

  Then  another day is rain, mud, stone or iron in the wood, chainsaw will not start, run properly, you left important tools behind, nowhere to shelter, you hate the people you are working for/with and you drop your small screw from the carb and/or sandwiches in the mud....................

Part 2 is to make you appreciate part 1 all the more .

One unexplained phenomenon I can’t put my finger on, is when I occasionally want to use a saw to help out towards the end of a job , any one of the five that have been left laying around by my young scallywags are bone dry, and yet whilst preparing them last night for today I filled them all up.

Tesco seem to have discontinued their Chocolate Brownie Traybake.

That and a tin of Ambrosia Custard has always been my emergency tea for when you've ever so slightly over-done it and are starting to fade badly.

They say it serves six but they lie: there's just enough for one.

Had to have the Granola Traybake tonight instead.

Burp.

Lovely!

 

Happy Days.

Inexplicable always has a nicer ring to it than unexplainable.

It is subtlety different to me, with the former being inexplicable to a certain person whereas the latter unexplainable to anyone.

A bit like the difference between inedible and uneatable (like a bit of meat from the BBQ the other night!)
