People ask if we get lonely in the country. Chance would be a fine thing! So far today Phil called in, Di was here, John the electrician came to try and find out why a third of the power circuits weren’t working. That resulted in me contacting UK Power who have just been and identified the issue and are sending another engineer later today. Whilst the first engineer was here there was a knock on the door

To see if we would lend them our ram to impregnate their small flock. Then she and I mislaid each other’s numbers. I have hers safely in my phone now and they can take Tufty away for a couple of months as soon as possible. I think his work is gone here for this year! Who else might turn up today?
