In other news: yesterday I gave the shed doors a second coat and did the back door blue as well. While I was on a painting roll I did the big step outside the french doors -- tile red, not blue. It's all very tidy out there now. I also phoned a roofer about the spouting and he came this morning to have a look. He's going to replace the whole stretch of spouting and repaint the fascia underneath. As he pointed out, it's the only time the fascia gets a good paint so it's worth doing. It feels good to be getting all this work done -- I want the place to be shipshape.
I didn't do a lot else on my day off. The garden out the front needs a good seeing to, and it actually needs watering too. The weather has been astonishingly pleasant for the time of year. Last year it rained from February through to, don't know, October or something, and I've known it to snow in April. Today was almost summery, I was out in my shirt-sleeves. Back to the garden: I haven't tried out the flame-throwing weedkiller Faye gave me for Christmas -- maybe next week. Saturday I'm determined to go on an anti-war protest; Friday I start work early; and tomorrow I'm hoping to visit Kate.
