So, following on from this post, the garden furniture sourced by my bro-in-law has yet to arrive. He promised month-end (this is probably the third "delivery date" that he's promised me). He also promised a nicer, cheaper set than I'd been able to get by myself. However, that appears to be incorrect as well. The set shown to me was nicer - with a few additional extras to make it nicer - but I'm not getting them. From what I can tell, thee set that my bro-in-law has sourced is pretty much the same as the one I'd spotted months ago, that I could have had there and then.
So, I could have had a furniture set six weeks ago that I'd found. It was a little expensive but that would have been justified with the fantastic weather we've had since the start of June. I could have had people round for drinks, food etc and been able to socialise outdoors within the Covid guidelines.
Now the good weather has gone. It's dull and wet and the promised second heatwave doesn't look like arriving.
