A Filler

I know that I haven't posted for ages and it's annoying me too! Readers who live in UK will know that we're experiencing a heat wave - and being so unused to such a phenomenon we're all strugging - well I am anyway. I chose July as the month to rip out the old bathroom and install the new and boy has it been tough! I've finally resorted to getting up really early (it helps that Sian's been on an early shift for two weeks) and getting as much as I can done by lunchtime or just after and then collapsing for a few hours until the evening brings the solace of being able to sit out the back of the house and gaze at the hills cooled by a hint of a breeze if we're lucky.

However these summer morningspresent a far more subtle and almost overwhelming temptation. The only way to avoid it is to refuse to go outside. The temptation of course is to sit in the cool shade a while the morning away with a good book taking frequent breaks to just drink in the fresh morning air with the added bonus of fresh cut hay in the field over the fence. (the odd cup of coffee doesn't go amiss either). Evenings are great too in a different way - but ah the mornings. But I musn't think about it or there'll be no tiling done tomorrow.

There is lots of good news from George and Anne Marie in Rehoboth and I will provide an update soon.

I have also decided (most people would probably say it's a decision long overdue) that this blog is boring - there's a distinct lack of pictures etc. so something must be done about it. That too is now at the end of a long list of "to do" items. Flash
