Wet.

Today began even greyer and wetter than yesterday. Slightly less rain in the afternoon but no sign of the sun.

This afternoon I got on with the paint scraping and at last all the door frames are done. Only the bannisters to do but I'm not beginning that until Monday. It's been surprisingly hard physically but then I'm no Spring chicken.

Still waiting for small birds to visit the bird feeders. Hopefully once the bushes grow and there's more cover the birds will find the free food. Food on the ground would soon attract the many seagulls in the area not to mention the super flock of jackdaws.

Snippets from Peter's history researches, Joy Street in town is so called because it was the haunt of prostitutes and Shameface Lane (no longer in use) was the location of the moneylender.
