Today I had a (very) little lie in,
Then went to meet Sue at work.
Went out to book a GP appointment,
Due to concernes about my injured finger.
Fell asleep due to exhaustion,
But woken by Sue's Welsh conversation.
Went out on the scaffolding,
And installed more gutter guards.
Also litter picked the scaffold boards,
And cleaned out the conservatory gutter.
Adjusted the rainwater pipes in the garden,
And added a pipe to the lean to gutter.
Tidied up the skip,
And cut down the over length waste.
Went to the GP surgery,
Got referred for an X-ray and hand clinic.
Did caretaking work,
No cleaning possible due to the Christmas faire.
Checked on Mum,
And messaged my cousin.
Set up a spreadsheet,
To record house renovations works.
Watched a bit of TV,
But off to bed now.

Today we had eggs for breakfast,
As is tradition.
Then we plastic sheeted the bedroom carpet,
And started stripping off plaster.
Put all the waste into the skip,
And then went out on the scaffold.
Did a tidy up of loose stuff,
And removed wind blown waste.
Cleared the shed and conservatory roof,
And all the ground around the house.
Trying to keep the site a bit tidier,
As the mess and building work is stressing me.
Watched TV and videos,
Needing to relax.
Tired now,
So off to bed.

Today I got up early,
When Sue was off to work.
I stripped the bed,
And put on the laundry.
Met Sue at work,
And cleaned the church.
Did Mum's laundry,
Then knocked over a cup of tea.
Mopped the kitchen floor,
And also the stairs and hallway.
Recieved a delivery for the roofers,
All our gutters, downpipes, soffits, and fascias.
Took a walk around the scaffolding,
Taking photos of the roof.
Skip number three delivered,
Helped clear and load it.
Did caretaking,
And cleaned the Meeting House.
Also cleared a blocked rainwater pipe,
Part of my maintenance duties.
Tidied the driveway and path,
and swept up after the roofers.
Sharpened all our kitchen knives,
And caught up with some videos.
Repair Cafe in the morning,
So off to bed.

Continued thread

Today we got up early,
And the roofers got on with their job.
We headed out on the road,
And drove up the M6.
Had tea at Tebay,
Then arrived at Penrith.
Looked at a car,
And decided to buy it.
Had food at Tebay,
Then headed on home.
Did caretaking work,
And some admin.
Checked on Mum,
Her wetroom has been decorated.
Cleaned up some mess left by the roofers,
Loose plaster crumbs and dust.
Sorted out file folders for all the recent car stuff,
Trying to keep records tidy.
Watched a few videos,
And browsed car parts on Ebay.
Tired now,
Off to bed.

I think this is my favourite road sign ever. It's called the "pillar of salt" and can be found in Bury St Edmunds. It is probably the only listed road sign in the UK, and is thought to be our earliest example of an internally illuminated traffic sign. I wish we had more like this.
[I discover that there are actually a large number of listed signs - see here: historicengland.org.uk/listing - thanks @james ]
