Off to get an immediate supply of sand, cement, colouring and plasticiser for the roofers as Daniel visits and joins the family to Wroxham for our morning drinks and snacks and then to see a film and then Steve as well in The Jolly to Piccasso's Pizza this evening.
A showery day today that was frustrating for everyone, but the roofers still ridged the road-side hip and one of the dormers.
A steady start today and saw Diana and the girls before I was out and up to Heronshaw to get dressed and shaved. A little time to start on my alarm wiring but then all the men arrived including the roofers who wanted an immediate supply of sand, cement, colouring and plasticiser. I dropped everything and, taking the trailer, emptied it at the civic amenity tip and then collected the materials from Jewsons on the way back. Returned just as Daniel arrived and, pausing to talk to the worker who was cutting back the lane vegetation for the Residents' Association, I then took the family to Wroxham for our morning drinks and snacks.

The rest of the morning and afternoon on site as the family went to see a film. Daniel Bloom turned up and I spent some time showing him how to stain the cladding and then at last managed to finish the door and window contacts as the workmen board in the outside of the compartment wall and then insulate the floor and start laying the floorboards. Took both Steve and the family to Piccasso's Pizza this evening with The Jolly managing four large adults and two children with ease. A showery day today that was frustrating for everyone but the roofers still ridged the road-side hip and one of the dormers.
