At the end of the day ...

... two new windows are in - expertly installed by a young man who clearly knows his job. The scaffolding is about two-thirds erected by four men who can't work without Radio 1 thundering out acros the lawn. In fact the first thing that comes out of their wagon when they (eventually) arrive is the ghetto-blaster! They managed four and a half hours today before leaving for the weekend. Nice work if you can get it! I expect them to return on Monday and finish the job whilst the roofers are here and doing what they can on the scaffolding that is up to the required height.

It's amazing how much light is prevented from entering the rooms with scaffolding and planks around the house. It's like living in a steel cage, though some of it is reminiscent of a cloister-walk, and has set me thinking ......
