The shredder is really very approachable, and the product useful.<br /><br />Bruce - it's quite safe, the shredding bit is a long way down, you couldn't easily shred your fingers!<br /><br />R - wonkiness rules!<br /><br />Marly - the late mornings seem to go on for a long time yet, but it is on its way up.<br /><br />Nimble - yes, and it's quite easy really, so we are optimistic!<br /><br />ML - and the same! I'm not sure any kerbside pickup would ever cope with the volume we have! <br /><br />PC - Bosch is best! The operator appreciates the compliment.<br /><br />Robbie - the chap who sold it to us said it is known as the 'mange tout', and was amused when I said that is our word for les pois gourmands. It seems a good model and is not noisy or unwieldy. Thanks for the S. Pearl-McPhee quote, I think I know and like her blog and patterns. 'Thanks for existing in a difficult year'; just what I'd have said to you if I'd thought of it first.<br /><br />Lucyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09764296105901909328noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37070024.post-21509571987026175062014-12-24T22:57:39.855+01:002014-12-24T22:57:39.855+01:00I looked up the Chartres Labyrinth and now wonder ...I looked up the Chartres Labyrinth and now wonder - have you ever visited and walked it?<br /><br />I hope you keep enjoying a warm and happy winter, and a wonderful year to come.HKatzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17653570160517335758noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37070024.post-48660999989866735462014-12-24T08:57:07.192+01:002014-12-24T08:57:07.192+01:00I've hivered and hovered over getting a shredd...I've hivered and hovered over getting a shredder, worried <i>inter alia</i> by the symbolism.
