A little belatedly (the return of the missing no.7 resident has been quite a distraction), here is my account of Monday to complete the ‘my day in four’ series. I took the day off on Monday as I knew with Neil coming home there would be very little chance any work would get done, and…

The Weekend
Where did it go? As you can see I am rather behind with my weekend update – and ‘poor show’ I say being the penultimate post of the ‘my day in four’ series. Please accept my apologies. Saturday I woke on Saturday having had a marvellous sort of sleep – one of those ones where…
Friday
