… a photo of the work that I did on the wall today. There’s a good reason for this, and I’m as malade as a perroquet<\/em> as they might say around here.<\/p>\n

I put a lot of work into what I was doing too. I removed all of the breeze blocks that I don’t want in the wall, hung the window framework, and then built up a fair few rows of stones both inside and outside, filling the space in between with lightweight concrete.<\/p>\n

It was all looking quite impressive too and so you can imagine just how totally depressed I was when with just a few minutes to go before I planned to knock off, I dropped a rather large stone right onto the wall and knocked off about 2 rows of what I had built so far today. <\/p>\n

One very unhappy bunny, especially as I was out working until 19:30.<\/p>\n

Had I knocked off at 19:00 – the usual time for finishing when I’m on summer hours,, none of this would have happened.<\/p>\n

Anyway, apart from that, I had the usual couple of hours on the internet, and a chat with Rosemary on the phone.<\/p>\n

Later on, I even had a visit from Bill and the Hound of the Baskervilles. I seem to be in demand again.<\/p>\n

Anyway tomorrow I’ll have another go on the wall and try not to knock anything off it again. <\/p>\n

With all of this cement that I’m mixing, I’m starting to notice a lack of water in the water butts now. A storm is forecast for Saturday night – I hope so!<\/p>\n
