Lots of rain first thing but brightened up before a further deluge afternoon and evening. Popped out to get some gluten-free cakes for S as she can't eat gluten. Intercepted a message from the tenants that one of the windows had a problem - they've needed sorting for a while but looks like the storms and deluges have worsened things. Anyway a broken sash, rotting frames and a pane of glass loose.
Spent ages trying to find someone to go round and look, but a lot of busy people. But eventually tracked down someone via the local glazier's who could pop round. He slotted the pane of glass back in and will ring me tomorrow with 'options'.
In better news, S arrived, having dumped her luggage at the hotel, and we had a cup of tea and cake while Dave fixed the car headlight. Drove to mum's for more tea and chat before going to Côte for a very nice meal. Dropped off mum and then S at Manor House after on our way back home.
3 good things
1. S brought us lots of goodies - Fazer chocolates and rye breads.
2. Côte's extensive gluten-free menu so S had lots of choice.
3. The window man mentioned options - well at least we have a choice.
No one should ever say having rental accommodation is easy…there’s always something…you seem much more relaxed about it now which is good. Have a great time with S.
Is "S" coeliac ? Still loads of restaurants don't offer much on GF (my wife is coeliac) or are poorly educated in cross contamination . We have a "fave list" of GF friendly places where we eat , Your narrative sounds pretty hectic , cheers
@phil_howcroft not sure but I think maybe yes. Would recommend Côte Brasserie - they actually had a dedicated proper menu with a full range of GF options and a GF set menu also.
