Bad Bad Blipper!

Last day of my holiday :(

The blip

Reluctantly went out this morning, didn't really feel like it but thought I should make the effort as I'm at work for the next two days, which I am determined to feel good about! This beautiful church was destroyed in a fire earlier this year on the 8th March- I never have been a big news reader and I never watch the news on tv, so I never actually saw anything of it until the following day. In fact I didn't go to see it until today.
The news (that I've now read) report that it wasn't an accident, I think it's a terrible shame that some of history has disappeared forever.

Anyway I got home, tummy full of toast and coffee and a few photos to go through- I was happily minding my own business and thinking I was going to have a relaxing afternoon when the planned works on replacing the balcony on my flat started.

BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG!! OUCH OUCH OUCH OUCH.....

I had a headache in five minutes.

The bad blipper

I thought I'd be all nice and polite and chat while they were starting and making sure the things I had out there weren't in the way and just watched.....of course in the style of a blipper, we can't just watch we like taking photos!
I was polite, I asked permission and I took about 5 photos, thought no more of it and carried on trying to ignore it with my headache. About an hour later there was a knock at the door; apparently I'd been complained about because they wanted to know why I was taking photos (even though I explained) and it wasn't liked, I must be some dodgy reporter- right?!!

After feeling quite down for the rest of the afternoon I looked at the photos, there wasn't a single one that had anyone in shot.. All you could see was a messy, half torn apart balcony.

What an afternoon :(
