Meanwhile back at the ranch.

These two sayings have stayed with me from 40 years ago when doing summer work with the local council dustbin / parks men:

  • never waste a journey (being berated by the gaffer from meandering back empty handed to the works van for some implement when there were 3 or 4 items that needed to go back to the van)
  • tidy as you go (probably the same gaffer seeing me create a huge mess)

I suppose that sums it up in a kind of melancholic way.
My nan came out with some corkers, if there’s enough blue in the sky to make a sailor a pair of trousers then it isn’t going to rain.

I’d gaze into the blue yonder in a childlike way and ponder. I hasten to add, I don’t have a thing about sailors or bell bottoms :018:
