Diversion

Lorna's sister's over from South Africa. She's staying in London, but she's coming up here for a few days. I have to drive down to Newcastle to pick her up. I'm also going to get some spare parts for Room 2's bathroom in preparation for another DIY (destroy it yourself) session.

On the restoration side - nothing happening today. The pads to receive the steelwork across the pend have been installed.

You can see them at the top of the wall. There are four on each side. But before the steelwork gets installed we have to get the pads inspected by our structural engineer. Only when he's happy will the installation go ahead. That'll happen tomorrow.
