When I was 6 my mom bought Venetian blinds and hung them in the living room. I remember being so proud of myself as I cut through the middle of them so neatly with a very sharp pair of scissors. I probably only got through 10 of the slats before my mom came in the room. I remember being very puzzled that she didn't see how neat and even my cuts were. Self-righteousness has always been one of my faults.Jan Blawathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06697621979002856884noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13883584.post-50918019359273182452017-06-12T09:50:41.649+01:002017-06-12T09:50:41.649+01:00Why do you think I go by the name of "Librari...Why do you think I go by the name of "Librarian with Secrets" here in the blogosphere?Librarianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05704656564078750607noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13883584.post-13511160675663828862017-06-11T23:54:16.156+01:002017-06-11T23:54:16.156+01:00Longer, even....Longer, even....Leehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15835982875620956300noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13883584.post-23329257909352473802017-06-11T17:11:04.740+01:002017-06-11T17:11:04.740+01:00Good hiding?

We don't have them any more. I went to bed with that lovely lamp glowing red in my student room. In the morning the lamp was out and my room was filled with oily soot. Served me right! I had even been breathing the black smoke in during my deep, inebriated slumber.

It was one of those orange-and-white barricades with the blinking light on top. It had been guarding a pothole beside the highway. She kept it in her closet for years, and it blinked for weeks on end before it finally died. I've often wondered whether someone drove into that pothole later.<br /><br />I've probably done naughtier things, as has Ms May, I'm sure, but like you I'd rather not disclose them!Steve Reedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11684120060438252945noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13883584.post-54245798358452028622017-06-11T14:06:06.800+01:002017-06-11T14:06:06.800+01:00I haven't even admitted them to myself, YP, so...I haven't even admitted them to myself, YP, so I'm certainly not going to tell you. I certainly agree with your assessment of Mrs May. I'm not sure that it will be stronger and more stable when Boris takes over but it will be more fun.
