For some time now we have been considering getting hand rails for the steps leading up to our house, and a little while ago asked a local neighbour how much he would charge. We also consulted a professional supplier, but did nothing about any of that (typical of us). Shopping this morning we bumped into the neighbour and I mentioned that we would like him to do the hand rail for us sometime. When we arrived home, a hand-rail had been fitted! There was tinsel round it, and a written note on the step - DO NOT USE TODAY, and Merry Christmas. I took a walk up to our neighbours with a Christmas Card and a thank you note. He opened the door to me, looked a bit startled when I said about the steps, took the card and we chatted - as I walked down the path I stumbled a little, and he said 'oh! steady, more water!' (I don't drink!). About half an hour later he knocked on the door to see what I was talking about - he did not put the hand-rail up for us - and seriously thought I was drunk when talking to him - who can blame him! So who put the hand-rail up, who knew what measurements they needed, and it is exactly the one we wanted - who knew all those things. PERHAPS THERE REALLY IS A FATHER CHRISTMAS. We Certainly have one very bemused neighbour, and are totally bewildered.
