Before I went to the Netherlands I started working on a fence that divides our garden and prevents Poupoune from giving the alley cats too much exercise.
In the winter the back gate is open because it otherwise gets stuck in the snow, and I have to dig out the fence before I can use the car. It’s all a bit moot, because there was neither snow nor car. The snow stayed away because we fucked up the climate and the car is in a garage in Gatineau (near Ottawa), where they’re trying to fix the engine again. But miraculously today, just after I had finished installing the fence, it started to snow.
The panels to the left and right of the gate are not fixed but can move up and down in a track. So when we will, some day, get a lot of snow (one can dream, can’t one?) I can move the fence up vertically so Poupoune still can’t jump over it from the snow bank. Patent pending.
