Weeknotes 9: missing an ear

A year ago I found a rocking horse that was missing an ear on the side of the road when I was putting the bins out. I took it home and found a bloke with a lathe on the internet who could make me a new pair of ears then fitted them, sanded it, and so on, only for our oldest daughter to basically ignore it. But this week she found it in the garage and has been playing quite happily on it. It feels good to save something from the bin.

The Tory leadership campaign continues to be a disgrace. Truss’s latest plan to make the cost of living crisis less bad is apparently an across-the-board VAT cut, which certainly won’t help those who don’t have much to spend anyway. But.. it’ll make for tidy savings on, say, a Rolex.
