We have had the builders in this week, by which I mean two of Paula’s family. Lyn had a great idea of building a conservatory, and a couple of months ago my neighbours set about facilitating that. I have been watching them, off and on; I always have liked watching people make things, be it my brothers with their lego to mum with her cooking. As a kid I always liked to watch dad make stuff from wood. The builders in question seem to be progressing well: the concrete floor has been laid, although boomba decided to walk over it when it was drying, so it has a row of paw prints across it.

I think the conservatory will be awesome once it’s complete. We need a tad more room. Although, for now, I’m quite content to watch them build it.
