Friday, October 11th, 2024 08:33 pmGot a wash on the line in today's brief warmth (22C) and wind. Oliver the Dog hangs out in SND's yard and barks at sight of anyone and everyone, so I hide behind the lattice to pin my clothes out, and watch Oliver on the porch try to figure out where the noise is coming from. The clothesline wheel squeals and nothing stops it, though I've tried WD-40 and all.
Broke down and ordered Indian delivery. Once again Skip or the restaurant got the wrong address-- 554 instead of 543-- so I called the guy over and tried to show him the tracking order I'd been following on my phone which of course (the malice of inanimate objects) wouldn't display. But did convince him in the end. The onion bhajis were indeed not all that, and the chickpea curry I'd asked to be mild wasn't. Or their idea of mild and mine are distinctly out of sync. I could actually have gone down to the restaurant myself, it being in the neighbourhood, but they're cash only and I need my cash for taxis. Not surprising that the place is always empty when i pass it, in spite of glowing reviews.
