[QUOTE="gennepher, post: 2355346, member: 238814"] I was up early, finished my digital painting. Then I wrote out 16 postcards, messages on them, and licked and stuck my brand new fancy stamps from yesterday. A lot of licking, and they are bigger stamps than normal. My lick is not very good and they stuck to my tongue... Went to catch the 9am post. Tried to get out of the house at 7:30 am..l tried and tried. The bungalow door wouldn't open. It had frozen. WD40, still frozen... Tried and tried. Finally opened. Then the gate wouldn't open. The catch had frozen solid. WD40 but the catch refused to unfreeze. A plumbers hammer by now. Still refused to open. Finally pulled both sides of gate open together. Catch is still frozen. Car. Frozen solid. Doors frozen. I am watching the guy over the road with a kettle of boiling water, and he is pouring it on the windscreen, locks...and the wing mirrors?!?!?!? I decided to try the de-icer on the locks and doors... Guy over the road gets more boiling water... Finally the de-icer works on my car. Turn on engine, and watch car from kitchen window. Guy over the road comes out with a third kettle of boiling water.... I lock up, and get in my car and drive to postbox. I got there for 9:15. No way of telling if post collection has taken place...but I doubt it. Come back. Guy with kettle of water is finally getting in his car... I try again with the iron gate, but neither WD40 nor de-icer works. Plumbers hammer again. I give up. Go in kitchen. Make a cuppa. Get in bed with cat. Cat moves away from me, leaving me to de-thaw by myself... [/QUOTE]
