Just come back from hospital visiting; and was talking to Mrs. KME`s dad, who remembered that he has a 4x4, and offered its use if our car & van both go off the road in the bad weather.
Bless `im. I said something about the 4x4 not being big enough, and the conversation went onto other things.
5 mins later, he turnes to me, and asks where his trailer is. I told him it was safe in our yard; and he wondered if I could put all my tools in that.
"Not safe, dad", I said, "its an open trailer - stuff`d get nicked".
Again, a few mins passed, then the thunderbolt hit `im, or some sort of epiphany occured:
"I know"!, he said, (during a discussion on flavours of rice pudding), "We could get a garden shed, and build it round the trailer. Put locks on it & things, and it`d be nice & secure!"
"You mean, like a shed on wheels?" Says Mrs. KME
"YES! Exactly."
We tried hard not to burst into laughter at the mental picture produced by this.......... I HAD to finish that off by saying:
"Shed on wheels? Aren`t they known as caravans??"
Sorry - we thought it was amusing - and need all the amusement we can get, ATM.
