Another early start (not quite as bad as yesterday) as the roofer had promised to come this morning instead having not appeared yesterday. I went to Tescos to stock up on goodies to take to Mum and also dinner for this evening. When I returned Colin was fuming as the roofer had actually turned up but without the right ladder and so promised to return on Monday morning. I then in turn was fuming as we are driving down Cornwall Monday and I wanted an early start to avoid traffic. i really didn’t want to rearrange to Monday but Colin is very worried about a damp problem caused by the rain pouring out of the gutter so I reluctantly agreed after the texted the roofer who in turn replied promising to be here at 8.00am on Monday. A frosty atmosphere - will we be third time lucky?
Chris came over just after lunch to join Colin for a golf game and left Branston for the afternoon. He is a lovely dog but for some reason this time he was very clingy and cried for over an hour and a half for his. I couldn’t manage to distract him until I remembered an old ball in my wardrobe which seemed to cheer him up a bit handworked as a distraction. Needless to say all my plans for work in the afternoon fell by the wayside so I will have to catch up tomorrow before we go away.
I cooked a side of salmon with new potatoes and a lemon meringue pie for dessert which seemed to go down well.
