\"collapsed<\/a>… here it is. The wall’s all finished!<\/p>\n

I was rather optimistic about my “couple of hours” – in fact it was more like 3.5 hours before it was all done. <\/p>\n

But the hardest part of it was of course the clearing up afterwards that took the time – I don’t do clearing up as you know.<\/p>\n

Anyway, there you are – all done and dusted. The tools have been put away and the araa has been cleared of rubbish the best that I can do.
<\/p>\n

As for the bits of old cement and so on that I dug out of the wall, they are on a tarpaulin at the side of the house. Soon I’ll be doing some concreting and I’ll be needing hardcore.<\/p>\n

As for the weather behaving itself, the moment that I finished putting the last trowel of mortar into the wall, it started to rain. Bang on cue, you might say.<\/p>\n

Anyway, seeing as it was 18:10 when I finished, I called it a day and boiled up some water for a shave and a good wash. <\/p>\n

Following that, I crashed out, to such an extent that I didn’t make tea. I’d probably be asleep even now if Radio Tartasse hadn’t rung up – apparently the music files for the radio programme are corrupted so can she copy them again?<\/p>\n

That’s where I was this morning, in Marcillat-en-Combraille, recording the Radio Anglais rock music programmes for Radio Tatasse. That was fairly straightforward after last month’s debacle.<\/p>\n

So tomorrow is shopping at Commentry and maybe even the swimming baths at Neris-les-Bains. A good soak and a good relax should do me the world of good, I reckon, after all of my exertions.<\/p>\n

Sunday is the pellerinage<\/i> at La Cellette and the pot d’acceuil<\/i> at St Maigner with Marianne, followed by the Virlet brocante<\/i> and then Liz and Terry’s for rehearsals for the rest of the Radio Anglais programmes, and that’s the weekend done.<\/p>\n

And do you like my Sunday? <\/p>\n

That, would you believe, is a day of rest.<\/p>\n
