First the fridge door, now the bathroom plug … No one appreciates the determination and ingenuity involved in mending such things
It is the season of things coming off in your hands – knobs and latches and chair legs and cup handles and articles with no name I’m aware of. I’ve snapped the plastic sliding mechanism that allows the fridge door to open in sync with the false wooden door that conceals it. This false door – a match for the other cupboard doors – was already here when we moved in, so I installed the fridge sliders myself. It’s a system prone to annual failure.
In the meantime I take down the Christmas lights. My wife finds me pulling them from the front hedge in the dark.
