Moving on

St Jude

Hey Jude!

Now all our visitors have left it's back to work with a vengance, for Jon if not me. As always he says there's no room for me to help as he lays the floor in the loft.

The air was rather blue yesterday as he laid the first two rows and the pieces just wouldn't join together but with a firm anchor to work against now, it all seems to be going down much easier.

Our 'little man' is booked to come and fit our three loft windows in about three weeks time, before he goes back to England for Christmas, so we've been checking local stocks ready to make a trip or two to go and collect them. We took some time deciding how large to have the windows and checking on sizes available so I was a little horrified to discover that there aren't many places that stock the size we need! Luckily the shop we had originally wanted to buy them from does have them and isn't too far away, just an hour's drive.

Lucky for me the shop isn't far from my favourite fresh produce shop and I'll take advantage of being there to stock up on 'exotic' vegetables and cultivated 'wild' mushrooms, looking forward to making some delicious soups and curries in the coming weeks.
