After lunch, I asked Neville to meet me just up the street a bit at the curtain and blind shop. I was just going to browse, as I was thinking of getting new curtains for my bedroom, as the old ones I have let in too much light in the wee small hours, and I am sick of waking up at the crack of dawn and not being able to go back to sleep.
They have a special deal for curtain sales. If you purchase certain fabrics by a certain company, they will make them up free. I liked several, but, as they were around the $30-$40 mark per metre, I balked at the idea. I was just about to give it the flick and leave, when I spied some remnants on rolls. I liked a burgundy one very much. I liked the price very, very much. $5.00 a metre. The owner and I worked out how much fabric I would need, and I bought it, and I told him I would measure the curtain rail and ring him with the details as soon as I got home. It will cost me just over $60.00 to have them made and the owner has agreed to let me pay that off gradually. He knows I will not let him down.It is good for business anyway.

You've had a win then.
I hope so! I have my fingers and toes crossed.
