We are in Nottingham and Darren has managed to tame what is potentially the tallest palm tree in the midlands!
I want out shopping while he set up the tower to it's highest possible setting, climbed up with his electric saw and got it done.
Then I helped move the tower next to the house, he replaced the guttering and I painted the soffits (I think that's what they are called.)
The neighbours saw me up the tower and made a huge fuss, saying how amazing I was, and when I pointed out that Darren had done loads more than me, and at a lot higher height, they were completely unimpressed.
In very 1970s style, they said that it was expected of a man, but not a lady.
It all got a bit embarrassing, but they all think that I am wonder woman, and I didn't really complain too much.
