Observatory progress – Phase 6 continued
Yep, it fits, purlins and all:
Tomorrow I’ll get more nails for it and fix it on properly.
It’s the Lidl things that matter
Ex-leper Alms for an ex-leper. Spare a talent for an old ex-leper?
Mandy Buzz off.
Ex-leper Spare a talent for an old ex-leper?
Mandy A talent? That's more than he earns in a month!
Ex-leper Half a talent then?
Mandy Now go away!
Ex-leper Come on big nose, let's haggle!
Brian What?!
Ex-leper All right, cut the haggling. Say you open at one shekel, I start at two thousand, we close about eighteenhundred.
I'm sure that you know the rest.

Pragmatism and Purism lose out to Painkillers and Purlins
The Coniston Fells rematch has had to be postponed due to my lack of confidence that my back will stay the course. It's a great disappointment on several levels, not least because I was hoping to take Ella with me for her first wildie. MWIS predicts that the weather's going to be really good over the weekend, so it would have been a great opportunity to introduce her to a couple of days and nights without most of the techno-trappings of life as she knows it.
Never mind, there'll be plenty of other chances.
It looks like I'll be taking it easy and finishing the observatory roof and the bathroom refurb instead.
There's no peace for the wicked, eh?
At sixes and sevens
Another "WTF?", this one is brought to you from Freeview:
Observatory progress – Phase 6
OK, we now have the beginnings of a roof, thanks to the help provided by Ella during the last two days:
Tomorrow we'll see if it fits.
