Walk 40:00 [2] 4.0 km (10:00 / km)
I took the day off and stayed in Benalla. It was actually cooler than Melbourne and a really good day for gardening. So after a heavy morning of pruning, I drove back to Melbourne but was too late for orienteering so went for a walk around Blackburn.
Today's discussion regarding stones and concrete on FB reminded me of a story - but I thought it might be better placed here (where I don't know who reads it). TinyToes - I know you like concrete - and I'm sure that you are into stones too - after all, you married a large one (Rockman) (apologies).
Anyway, after my lovely new concrete drive was laid in Benalla, the very charming tall handsome concrete layer, flanked by his equally charming tall handsome sons, stared me straight in the eye and announced, without flinching - "You can do almost anything on it" he said "but don't go round screwing on it"......Huh ?????......Eh ?????
I was totally taken aback. The mind boggled. I would never think of doing such a thing! And fancy him thinking that I would! Then I realised that he was talking about car tyres. So in a supreme show of strength I managed to refrain from bursting out laughing and maintained my dignity in true ladylike fashion to continue the conversation. But it was very funny.
