Over the garden fence

Really sorry to hear that grindle, Dylan is a beautiful dog & will leave a big hole in your lives but all you can do is make the last part of his life as happy & comfortable as possible. xx

The thermostatic valve on one radiator is leaking. The carpet is sodden. No plumber until Thursday. They is inundated (pun intended) with emergencies.
Once upon a time I could have mended it myself, but not any more.

Finally found a reliable builder to fix our chimney which has been leaking into the loft and down the bedroom wall, it's been a nightmare trying sort it out and has taken near on a year, we've had to try and get our local housing company to get on board so the whole thing could be re rendered but they didn't want to know, so we are just going solo and doing our half which is not social housing. Scaffold goes up Monday weather permitting

That must have been really worrying grindle especially with all the wet weather we've had over the last few months, hope the repair goes well.

Crongers fissed. The builder is supposedly coming to start work on re-furbishing our Drive. Only going to cost £10,000. Has to be done though for safety. Been waiting for him since mid-November last year.

Builder is here and has made a start putting down the edgings which hold the new surface in place.
Lot of money as it is a big area.

thanks Cherry he is still wanting his morning walk but sleeps for most of the rest of the day apart from when there's food around it will just be a waiting game


The scaffold for the roof went up on Thursday/Friday so one step nearer, our builder had to move onto another job as it was supposed to be last Monday but has said he will fit us in as soon as he can inbetween heavy rain
