Rain rain go away

 Well, what I can say. It's rained. A lot. And that's about it...

The puppies aren't impressed

Even I lit the fire

... but you don't get off that lightly so here's the update. I worked all day Saturday pretty much (having been woken at 3.30am by Rosie who heard the rain and woke and wouldn't go back to sleep) so Angela and I swapped Daddy Day to Sunday. It was cold enough that I even lit the fire while I was in Room 13. On Sunday it was still raining most of the day but we did get to town and then a bit later I got to go with a walk with Rosie to jump in puddles; we found some on the land but the most fun was had on the lane. It really was cold and miserable and yesterday the men called in that they weren't coming to work. At the time I was disappointed but I really couldn't blame them at all.

Cloudy start and more rain

Roofing and insulating

Ready for a game

This morning there was an epic thunderstorm that woke me at 3am again and this time I couldn't get back to sleep (Rosie wasn't bothered) so I got my work day done early. The men were in and they spent all day up in the roofspace lining the ceiling with insulation and plasterboard. At the end of the day they were about to start doing the lowest down sections and they'll probably continue that tomorrow. The forecast is for more rain all week and then from next week to dry up. Here's hoping. We've set up a gaming table in the lounge this evening to play a game on for the first time for ages so that's going to be fun.

So there you are. There's the update. Thanks for reading.
