Warm.

We've had less rain and more wind today, a southerly wind which brought welcome warmth.

It's been 7 months and at last all the work on the house is done. Still a bit of tidying up to do but on the whole we can now relax and think about fun things to do. I don't have early pictures of the inside of the house but here are the before and after pictures of the garden which of course is my favourite part of the property.

 Oh the slippery decking and the looming shed, now just a memory.

I haven't done much today just some painting of a few spots (under a radiator and behind a curtain rail) that somehow got missed out in the general redecorating. In the afternoon I sat reading outside ready to rescue the washing on the line if the black clouds overhead delivered rain.  Then early exercises to warm up ready for Pilates. Found out that although our classes in the boys' old school come to a halt at the end of the term our teacher will be teaching a class on Thursday evenings up at the college all through the summer. It's a turn up and pay for the class so I plan to do that rather than get out of practice over the summer holidays. Years ago I did a computing course at the college, the boys did their A levels there and Peter did a plumbing and electrical course before being employed in the college IT department.
