Welcome to family, friends and visitors. Here you will find interesting (hopefully) pictures of my part of the world, news of our household and probably, long ramblings about anything that catches my interest.

An Early Start.

The current high pressure system trapped a layer of cloud over us which stayed in place until the afternoon. Then as the clouds began to clear the sky turned a lovely blue (not quite as blue as in the photos). Once again it was nice and warm in the sun and a lot cooler in the shade. I was woken earlier than intended since I had forgotten to change the time on my alarm clock. I fed the cat, adjusted the clock and was aiming for a bit more sleep when Peter got up so I had a mug of tea in bed instead.
The builders turned up in the morning, hooray! and as Peter was going rowing at midday I had to skip going to the zoo. Beforehand I walked down to the pharmacy to collect my prescription. It's so handy to have a pharmacy in the village.
While the builders put the first coat of render on my study I did my Welsh homework and afterwards had a session on the piano. Headphones on of course as I prefer not to play when people can hear me. No chance of me becoming a concert pianist. (My limited piano playing skills might also be a factor in that!)
 
The builders have also done the tidying of the render around the windows on the other side of the house. I've no idea when they will return to apply the next coat, Google says to wait 24-48 hours so I doubt if they'll be here tomorrow.
