Looking out of the window this morning and seeing the clouds being blown by a northerly wind I thought we were in for a cold day but with lots of sun it felt almost like a spring day outside. While the builder was working up in the loft I did my morning exercises in the sitting room. Speedy thought he had found himself a comfy spot when he jumped on my tummy eliciting a surprised 'Oof' as he landed.
When the builder finished he loaded up his van with all the wood from the old shed apart from a few beams which might be useful. I made a start on the trough to go in front of the window but ran out of nails. As there was a collection of stuff from the loft sitting by the front door including a large round water tank I halted my construction work and filled up my little car with as much as I could cram in for a dump run. From the dump I went to BJ's, bought the nails I needed and 6 bags of compost (on special offer for £10). Apart from the trough I will need to repot most of the plants I brought from Dingles.
This evening we are going to Pilton Cinema to watch Dunkirk. The 'cinema' is a community event in the church hall just five minutes walk away. It is good to support local events and is a chance to socialise as well, tea and coffee are provided or bring your own drinks. The independent cinema in town is only 25 minutes walk away with the main screen in the original theatre style auditorium but the main drawback is the amount of noise from people unwrapping and eating the sweets, popcorn and crisps that are sold in the foyer.

Hi, just trying to get caught up with what I've missed the last couple of weeks.
Thinks moving along nicely with the work going on in your home.
Hope you had a fun evening.
I'll be interested in your opinion of Dunkirk. We saw it and liked it.
