My World.



At the moment I'm either elbow deep in bricks and plaster,


or knee deep in blocks and mortar,


or tangled-up in a mess of wires.


Otherwise I'm digging the garden, chain-sawing piles of wood, or mowing (in between waiting for our damaged cooker to be taken away, and a Palm tree to be delivered). I've hardly got time for a glass of rouge.

When will it ever end (did you hear that crack of the whip?)!

    2. Good! Everything we get here is from China made to comply with 'good enough for Africa' norms.

  6. Is it self-flagellation, or is Lady M wielding that whip? Things are moving along and looking great! I bet you can't wait until the family move in. It will be wonderful to have them close.
