There is no escape!
Tues, 24th May I had a new boiler fitted, so a day out. On the 25th the roofers came to replace next door's roof - bang, boom, bang, crash, morning till night. Because of the weather this went on all last week.
This morning the council have started demolishing the garages on the green just over the road. There is a digger with one of those big pneumatic chisels on the front, a bulldozer and any number of tipper trucks taking the spoil away.
I went away to Becky's for a few days last week to help her pack as her tenancy is up and she is moving back to mum's till she goes to NZ. I was hoping to come back to peace and quiet - how wrong was that!
