| Tuesday 19 June - Sadly a bare fence
again |
It's
an angle grinder. |
Ironing
board loses fight with Black & Decker
It lived
fast and died young. I wasn't here to see it, but was told that
as the sparks flew, it struggled heroically, and stayed on the fence
until the last second. It had its new friend, the iron next to it
too (also gone - your useless Fencemaster failing to get a picture
yet again).
I imagine a scene reminiscent of the end of 'Titanic'. Maybe not.
Either way, I am sad now.

18 June 2001 - Ironing board goes live fence-side |

We
have lift off!
What
a lovely morning for a situationist art project/Internet site launch.
Your Fencemaster got up ludicrously early today and left home at
5am to be sure of working unimpeded. As I said earlier, ironing
boards aren't generally made with security in mind, and this one
is no exception, so I don't know how long it will be with us.
I brought
the balloons up yesterday, not wanting to disappoint Mrs Fencemaster
who bought them. I had to leave them outside in bin bags with the
rest of the rubbish near the fence I am not allowed to lock my bike
too. Imagine my surprise as I drove round the corner to see a Rubbish
Lorry doing a collection - at 7 o'clock on a Sunday evening! Don't
worry though, the balloons
were still there this morning.

Somebody owes me £16 for the locks.
The sign said nothing about ironing boards on the railings.

A
disappointing saucepan from Asda
The
saucepan was £3.79. I was distressed to note that the handle
had been ripped off on the same day it went on the fence.
It
looks a bit rubbish and being dark green is a poor follow up to
the yellow saucepan (below).

A
lovely yellow frying pan
It was
about £3.50 from Wilkinsons. I left the labels on. A quick
center punch and drill later, I was easily able to get the padlock
(A Buffo, from Woolworths, about £2.50) right through the
middle.

detail.

well spent. It didn't last for long though, after about four days
on the fence all that's left was the padlock. I imagine it was souvenier
hunters.

Some
cutlery - here's a handyman sawing it off
I didn't
even get time to take a picture of it. There were three items all
locked on with one padlock. A ladle, a spoon, and a spatula. They
were all silver and sparked pleasantly in the sun. Here's
the handyman Howard De Walden Estates (or their manging agents)
send round to attend to such things. He's an old boy and only has
a little hacksaw.

The
first thing on the fence
It hadn't
occured to me to take a photo of it on the fence. it was on for
a week, mounted via a padlock through holes I drilled in the spout.
I didn't do a great job and it disappeared.
I put
a sign up saying 'Where's my kettle? I want my
kettle back' and it reappeared by the fence the next
morning.
