February at Southwold

Nothing much has happened!   There are only so many times I can report on a curtain finished or a painting job completed.   So, lets just say that the work continues and in the meantime the house is very comfortable and enjoyable.

The grandchildren were with us for 4 days at the end of their half term (with their parents).  We had great weather for walks, playing in the garden and on the beach.  It was just warm enough.
No Grandma, we're not kicking the ball on the flowerbeds! 
Rupert and Laura joined us for one night.  On their last day Eliot took the boys to the swimming pool at Yarmouth which has a wave machine and slides.  Abe tripped on the steps up to the slide and got a cut over his eye which bled profusely and caused the slide to be shut.   Eliot took him to A&E and Nancy and I went to meet them there.  Quite a lot of rushing about and drama for a little cut.  Abe was a bit shocked and wobbly and so was his father!    In the end we had lunch at 5.30 in the afternoon  - prepared, in our absence, by grandpa!

This morning the shed we ordered on Friday was delivered and erected.  Very fast work!   We are looking forward to making shelves and fitting it out and clearing the garden.   Now we are on look out for garden furniture.

...will go in here, we hope.
This lot...
